Stop! More Nigerian-Scam nonsense - Beware!

These people just don't stop, huh!
This is just another play off the Nigerian Scam and it shows you how they work.

Notice that out of tons of snake ads I posted, they picked the 1 oddball ad selling ferrets! Not even snakes!
Then they proceed to say 'We'll take all the puppies' !!
DId they think Ferrets were dogs?
Did they think I also had puppies?
Didn't they realize Ferrets can't be legally shipped?

This, for one, shows their programming skills aren't top notch, lol

SO here's the letter/email I received...
