In view of this I need you to email me any information that may be required to send the payment as I do not want to send the check to a wrong location lest they get into the wrong hands.
Regarding the shipping , I have a company that takes care of the pickup of my consignments for me and ship to my destination in anywhere in the U.S.A they are Good in shippping animals and they never lack of any equipment to make the pup safe they are %100 Good in shipping animals, you do not worry about shipping, the company will send down a representative to arrange the sales documentation and Little Animals They are very good in shipping little animalsand they never lack of care while shipping it to my final destination and the pick up from your end for onward transfer to my destination.
I also want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving an overdraft check, which will cover the money for the pickup (pickup and shipping to the final destination) as well as the money to be paid to the company that will take care of the pickup and the documentation with you. So please, as soon as you receive the payment, go and cash it immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you, and send the balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment via Western union.The check will be in your name to make it easier for you to receive payment, please reconfirm your details one more time.I will give you the details of the company that will be shipping it as soon as we seal this seal.Once the money is received by the agent , the shipping agent will contact you
immediately to arrange the documentation as well as the pick up immediately.

Needless to say, an obvious scam as I replied requesting full name address, 4 references etc., no reply. So, I just wanted to share in case anyone else comes across this or they change tactics.
This was the e-mail address they used: jabless22@yahoo.com
