These SCAM alerts were posted in our ads section which is not for such warnings:
They are transplanted here as a public service.

Scam #2
Same as scam below, same Alfred Jones, and short email with bad english in it. Looked suspicious to me from the get go. Then another email from a Ken Conran with the offer of $3000 as the sum to pay me for the brazilian rainbow I have for sale.
Cosmo mail and Kero mail are the domains used to distribute these emails.
Heads up folks.

And
Scam # 3
I have also got the same email and another one just like it. Goes to show, these quacks try really hard to get us. Always beware of who you deal with. If a deal seems "to good to be true" It usually is. Be careful and good luck to anyone who may be a possible victim to these low lifes.

No problems.
It is worthwhile information that was just posted in the wrong place.
I put it up here because I agree with the need for the warning.
Thanks for sharing it.

I also got scammed by some one in Cameroon, whom I sent the money for a pair of savannah monitors which of course I never got. His name was Derick Ngufor. Another Cameroon guy tried to scam me. He had a simillar name but don`t quite recall it exactly. He offered to send me puff adders for 30 euro for the male and 35 female. Oh..and 3 $ for the egg.Every one here probably knows that puff adders are ovoviviparous, they give birth to live young. He was selling african snakes, including anacond boa constricors.....:))) lol. Again he was also selling eggs, and again of a species that doesn`t lay eggs. Og well, not all of them are good scammers. I didn`t fall for this one, fortunatly.
