I received an email from a supposedly, Nicole Johnson, in need to find a home for her Yorkie puppy. Claimed her and her husband where on a mission trip in Africa and the puppy couldn't handle the weather and they didn't have time to take care of him any more. Claimed the puppy was for free but I would only have to pay the shipping charge. I was interested and when I received the email regarding the shipping charge of $250.00 plus care charges of $50.00, I emailed her back and told her that was too high for me, and I didn't expect it to be so expensive and told her she would have to find another person to apopt the puppy. I thought that would be the end of it. I got another email, and she claimed she would raise money and pay half of the shipping charge if I could come up with the other half.

I got suspicious after that and tried looking up the Ship Express LTD with the address they gave me and found out there was no such business. I was on the internet and pretended I didn't know that and began to chat with Nicole on Yahoo messenger and confronted the scammer. He, not even a female, admitted it was a scam. I saved the chat to an email, if I can send it to you please let me know. He also admitted he has other scams. He said he's not American and is 28 years old.
I also still have all the emails from the scammer.
