Ever heard of citywide-pet-transport@cheerful.com???

Hi , I also have experience of City Wide transportation. I answered an AD on a reputable site for a Cockapoo pup, which was being kept in Ireland. The pup was free to good home, but I would have to pay for the transportation fee, when I suggested I arrange the transport, the seller got quite aggitated. I then received an e-mail from City wide, asking for payment via moneygram. I contacted them on the number they provided, and did get a response, only to be informed that they had no on-line payment facilities (for security purposes they said) and couldn't accept pyment over the phone. So I checked out the business address on-line, and not only was the address they gave in Cameroon, but there is no web-site for the company. I was directed here instead. Finding it rather odd that a man who lives in Ireland decided to use a company in Africa, that he obviously didn't get from on-line, and I doubt that he found them in the Yellow pages, I decided to send him an e-mail, stating what I had found out, and that I will only pay the £210 they were asking as a cash on delivery payment, and furthermore would be reporting the company to the relevant authorities for investigation into their legitimacy. I have noticed that the company is changing the number and e-mail address regularly, so for anyone that is interested, or needs further info regarding this scammer the current information they are using is as follows:
CITYWIDE PETS TRANSPORTATION AGENCY
IRELAND BRANCH
(+44) 07024041488
citywide.transportation@deliveryman.com
NAME: YVENT BILA
COUNTRY: CAMEROON
CITY/STATE:YAOUNDE
ADDRESS: 35 CRADAT PLACE
ZIP CODE: 00237

I hope this information can be of any use to anyone. but I suspect, that like all other information they give out, it is all non-existent

Hi, I have done a little more checking, and am sorry to say (but relieved I withheld payment) that the business address doesn't exist. There is no Cradat Place in Yaounde. and I cannot find a trace of the e-mail address either, although these people were expecting me to e-mail confirmation details of payment, so I assume the address will be in existence for at least today.

hi i am from the uk

i was nearly scammed by someone called emily today using the number 07024041488
saying this was her mobile to talk about a maltse puppy 13 weeks old. i spoke to her husband ( well meant to have been he sounded spainish) we have been talking for a few weeks she sent me pictures of the dog and said it willl be sent with toys etc making it out to be real. then when i asked which transport system she was using from Ireland she said City wide transport. i then googled this company to find out from Mikkimoo71 it was a big SCAM....... so thanks....
So be aware THIS IS A SCAM ........ DO NOT SEND any money
