Still in good condition?


I didn't reply to any of these. If the English is bad it's not a good sign. I don't respond to these types of e-mails.
 
I wish I would have kept my best replies. Once, I posted a request for an adult male cat that must be neutered and declawed. I got two responses: one was from someone who knew someone who was having money troubles and needed to rehome about 20 outdoor cats, many of whom were pregnant. I felt for her, but I can't facilitate irresponsibility like that. The other response was a very detailed but faulty scam. Somebody just moved to another country with her cat, but she wasn't allowed to keep it. She thought I sounded like I could provide a very loving home, but she'd need more information from me. She wanted to be sure that I wasn't going to start a kitten farm with her beloved fluffy. Could I please send $350 for a pet carrier to ship the cat to me? I emailed her back to offer advice on how she could improve her scam, like maintaining a single gender for the animal throughout the sob story, and paying more attention to what I had speciffically requested. Also, if I was looking to shell out a paycheck for a cat, there's around 20 I can choose from that's a bit closer.
 
Rancher Hicks-- folks that have immigrated to this country still want food directly from the farm. Most of my customers speak broken English. They are from all around the world.

I can agree with that, however if one part is perfect English and one part is not or they ask for an address right off, I'm suspicious.
