MONKEYS FOR SALE

Is the monkey sale business in Cameroon legitimate or is it a scam? How do they get around the "quarantine" issue - they promise to have the monkey at your door within 9 hours????

If you could submit some of their correspondence to our staff, we could look into it. It's very difficult to evaluate without any documentation. Our services are anonymous and always free.

You might also call the Embassy of the Country in question in the United States. Besides the "scam" issue quesiton, there might be other legal issues involved.

Reply #3 Fraudwatchers (80.237.152.53) -

Bart's suggestion is very good. A country's respective embassy would be a solid source of accurate information. Also, just the fact that they offer to contravene the quarantine issue points to a scam. They probably will ask for payment by untraceable Western Union which is another alarm.

Another question is whether it is an international transaction?

Ie: are they supposedly delivering a monkey across an international boarder within 9 hours! ie: is the monkey coming from Cameroon to some other country or some other country to Cameroon or just staying in Cameroon?

Are you in a country where monkeys are normally kept as pets? Do you have enough knowledge of your place of residence to know whether keeping a monkey is shady business or not?

If it is just staying in Cameroon, why not go to a "pet store" and buy one? Of course if the answer to that is that you can't... well... then you probably have your answer!

If it is being transported across an international boarder and will be at your door in 9 hours... get real! You can't usually get a letter delivered that fast!

i have been trying to get a monkey for my husband for a while now.you would not beleive the response i got,i have had 50 people from cameroon to contact me,they even call me by phone.if you want to know if it is a scam just ask for cash on delivery no up front cost.cash on delivery to your door,when you do that they won't call or bother you again.thats how you know a scam.

There are many internet scams coming from Cameroon be careful, do not send money unless you see the animal first.

If you have been scammed like me send me all the info and I will get it to the authoritites in Cameroon to be investigated

Together we can help STOP THESE PEOPLE FROM STEALING

Reply #10 Jim Bob (152.163.38.53) -

I bet you have no monkey and anyone who sends you $750 will end up with nothing in return.

i thinks all africans are scammers.i would advise you to send money only to a person in a developed country like germany ,england or france.africans are poor and will do any thing to make money.the advantage with developed countries is that the justice system is efficient and the police are not corrupt like in cameroon and nigeria.i lost $3000 in trying to get a monkey from a certain rev joseph in cameroon who claimed to be a man of God.

I finally decided to try buying from england and thank God i contacted Mr Blaise who is a reliable breeder and he help ship my monkey to me with all paper work.Up till now i still serve as his reference here in USA.The good thing with him is that he accepts half payment and then you send the rest of the money when you get your monkey.His email is blaise435@http://hotmail.com and we have now have a wonderful relationship.

So my advise to you all is DO NOT BUY PETS FROM AFRICA.

Reply #13 ronald and denise powell (68.103.41.240) -

we almost got scammed by 2 different individuals in cameroon jessica watson with a 6 month old capuchin monkey named betty and a father francis with a 5 month old baby capuchin monkey named jesse. they went down as low as 200.00 for shipping and promised her here within 7 hours and told us we would have to sign a form when she was delivered. we caught on before we sent any money.

Reply #14 ronnie and denise powell (68.103.41.240) -

although we thought we almost got scammed we actually did. they agreed that we could put the money on the wire but have a pass word so no one could pick up the money untill we received the baby monkey oops we were wrong even with a pass word these bastards can still get your money all they need is a photo id then they dont need a conformation number or have to give the pass word u choose the western union over there is working with them as far as we are concerned because they didnt make him give a pass word. if you want a bay monkey call cheryll ullrich at 319 385 4866 they let you come to there home and see what you are buying before any money changes hands. they have a web sight called www.unusualmonkeys.com. do not deal with any one from cameroon or any one from all saints church they are working with air france cameroon.

I have been scammed from cameroon 3 good times, but thank God i came to know the one and only monkey breeder from cameroon, he is the only one recognised by the ministry of pets and livestock and export monkeys to the usa, his email is jamesmoor@myway.com please buy monkey from no one else in cameroon appart from the above email, iam proud of him wen i say my litle girl by my door steps, of which i already gaveup that it was a scam.

Reply #16 skeptical (152.163.38.171) -

And that is probably a scam in and of itself.

I bet if you ask the U.S. Customs Service you'll get a whole different story about importing Monkeys to the USA.

DO NOT BUY MALTESE PUPPIES FROM CAMEROON. IT IS ALL A SCAM. THEY SAY YOU WILL GET YOUR PUPPY AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE PUPPY IS STUCK IN FRANCE AND THEY NEED MORE MONEY FROM YOU. THEY ACT LIKE THEY ARE PEOPLE OF GOD. WELL GOD DOESN'T MAKE LIARS, STEALERS, AND SCAMMERES!!!! THE DEVIL MAKES PEOPLE LIKE THEM. I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING THEY HAVE HURT SO MANY PEOPLE. DO NOT GET HURT THE WAY I DID!!!!

I was also told i could have a monkey and pay Securely using Western Union Online. It is true, because i made payment online , and used a credit card , and sent to Cameroon , there is no such thing as a "Secret Question or Answer" . All they need is Photo ID and your money is gone. One common thing they like asking you to do is for you to send the money , and let them verify it online , then they leave the Computer once they see the money is in the processing state , then go pick your money up. They only need the Senders 1st and last name and the Receivers 1st and last name. Then your sitting there wondering why you havent gotten a monkey Often you will get an email from what seems to be an Airline Agencey. Is it real? It sure looks real. Thats because these people are pros. Do this.... Right click the email itself and click on Properties.... now look at the Actual email address instead of the header.... is it a Yahoo email address? If so , you have been scammed or are being scammed. What airline cannot afford a real Email Address? Think about that! I can send you a picture if Michael Jordan humping a monkey , on a tuesday , in the middle of the whitehouse , doesnt mean it is true or real! Motto : If it is too good to be true , it probrobly is!

I refuse to let you trash these good peoples name here in Cameroon.....By the way , wanna buy a monkey?

*LoL*

Yes it is true, Jessica Watson and Tebid Beryl Tebid tried selling me monkeys along with 50 other people. I had emails from priest , Doctors , Lawyers , Missionarys , You name it , i got it. Everyone of them wanted money 1st!

Hello... Who in their right mind would send money first?

Would you buy a car even at a great deal without test driving it? What about a pair of Shoes , Would you buy a pair of shoes without first trying them on?

They will send you pretty pictures of monkeys and emails from Supposed Airlines or Airports saying you will get a monkey and its on the way. Hell it will look great , the email that is. Writen in French FIRST then English. You will have a Parcel ID Number and maybe a Tracking Number , but notice , there is no website to track from. Also notice that the guy you are buying from sounds alot like the guy in Cameroon , aven though hes supposed to be stationed in France .

Anyways , Screw Cameroon and thier monkeys. As good as i am , they got $200 off me telling me that the sender sent the monkey to the Airport and there is no Shot/Worm records. And that they must be faxed over to them and for me to contact the sender immediatly. Why didnt they contact the sender? Surely the sender of a Live Monkey isnt just going to walk into an Airport , hand them their monkey , pay for a flight , and walk away without leaving a conatc number. Anyways , i was told by the sender that she spent all her money on shipping the monkey and was pregnant , and her husband was gone at work , and all she needed was $194 to get the correct stamped paperwork she needed. I fell for it cause my wife wanted this Dayum Monkey so bad. Guess what... We never got it. Here is a few email addresses to watch out for...

Scam Artist Email Addresses:

I know they seem very convincing, however ask about references , but careful ,Hell i can own 60 different email addresses or i can give you all my friends names and emails , they can tell you great stuff abou tme and i may be a crook for all you know. You just dont know , so why send money?

We all want a monkey , however just do a little research. You will not get a Monkey , Frech Bulldog , Chuahuah , Terrier , OR any other type of animal if you send money 1st.

Reply #20 The Big Monkey (152.163.39.117) -

Let's say that someone from Cameroon actually (yeah that is a joke)... put a monkey on an airplane for someone in the USA.

What happens next? The U.S. Customs Service will be the first to greet the Monkey upon his arrival in the United States...

And.. guess what! You ain't gonna get that monkey (and if you are lucky you won't get any free room and board either).

This is what the U.S. Customs Service says about Monkeys (click on the link to read the full pdf):

---

Monkeys and other primates may be brought intoo the United States for scientific, educational, or exhibition purposes by importers who ARE REGISTERED WITH the CDC. However, under NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY THEY BE IMPORTED AS PETS....

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) requires that all primates have permits.

So even though you are being ripped off and there is no monkey, if there was you wouldn't get it anyway!

Reply #21 Tebid Beryl Tebid N Jessica Watson Cameroon scammin people 4 money from the USA (65.14.20.253) -

I recently got scammed by 2 people in Cameroon stating they was going to sale me a Monkey and guess what , i never seen any monkey and lost Hundreds of Dollars. They told me to send the money first and they would put the monkey on an Airline and have it shipped to me. They used fake Airline Emails and Fake Airline Telephone numbers. I didnt totally fall for it as far as the money goes as they asked $1900 of me , and i told them no way would i send the the full amount without seeing the monkeys first. They asked me to send them a copy of my Drivers License so they knew i was legit and wasnt wasting their time. I thought , what could they do with a copy of my drivers license? A paper copy at that. So i sent them a copy. Next thing they asked me to send aany amount of money , prefered $500 as good faith money... now i am not likeing the deal. They went as low as a cuple hundred dollars so i sent the money via western union and they picked it up . Now they used a fake Airline saying they have a monkey onboard for me and they are confirming the address. I cconfirmed my address and was thinking maybe they were legit. Guess what. The monkeys never came. After they confirmed my address , i got a message from Tebid and Jessica stating since i know that the monkeys are now onboard , to pay them immediatly. I dint. I wanted to wait till i seen the monkeys for myself. When i kept refusing , they got upset very badly. They started threatening me and saying they was going to call the FBI cause i was trying to scam them . Imagine that , Scammers claiming to be Scammed. I scamed noone. I was protecting my inveastment. Then the used the names... jessipets1990 and btebidson both Yahoo email and messenger names. Now that they have a copy of my license they claim to be able to scam other people out of money and use my name. maybe its true and they can , but i dont see how they can with a paper copy of my license. I am going to call western union and make sure they have not. Here is a copy of one messaging time that took place on Sunday September 17 , 2006.......

I sent a email to this adv.and she got back with me.She said I had to send $150.00 to her.For shipping and I told I was not sending any money to her ,she said it was free to good home.So a couple days passed and she told me she shipped her that day.So I was excited and I kept emailing her to give me the shipping information.And then I got a email from the airport in paris and told me he had a monkey there with no shot records and neede them faxed so I kept emailing her to tell her.And she emailed me back and said I need $150.00 sent now to me or I am sending the monkey back to Camaroon.And I told her I was not sending money intill I got the monkey.So she wrote me back saying I was a scammer and she was puting a curse on me and my family ,she was going to contact her ansesters (JUJU)and curse me with Africann JUJU dust.And turn me into the authorities.Her so called name is Eremine Lum she gave me this info. so I can wire her money.Her email was eremine02@yahoo.com

So watch out for her.Oh she said she was pregnant and thats why she was getting rid of the monkey and the monkeys name was shanny.And the email from paris was @yahoo
