Mrs. Swan Vs. The Scammers




Was watching a re-run of MadTV the other day,and realized the character of Mrs. Swann would be the perfect person for scamming the scammers....

My apologies to Mrs. Swan, I'm not as good at this as her character always was, but did try. Send out several e-mails and none of the scammers responded, so I went even more over the top with this one (by the way, Mrs. Swan claimed to be from the same place in the North Pole that Santa Clause was from in one episode, choosing Korea is because Mash was on)

Hello,
Thanks for the mail. Leo is still available for adoption and i am looking for the right family that will spoil him to rotten and give him the love he deserve. Leo is doing well, he is a 100% pure breed. He a little playful guy of 13 weeks old and he is 2.5 lbs and will be 4-6 lbs when fully grown up. lots of toys and running which is his best game, and he is looking for a family that he will have people to play with. He is current on all shots,he is fix housebroken and he is very friendly to kids and loves the company of other pets like cats birds etc. He is already started putty training; Leo will be coming along with all vet documents. All I want from you is to take good care of him and you will have to send me monthly pics of him, so that i can see how he is doing with his new family. I will like to know when you are free to get him?. The adoption fee is 190.00. The reason why I am given him out for adoption is due the bad weather condition here which makes him not to fill like as home and i will not be able to take good care of him. There is also lack of canned dog food here and inadequate vet docs here. So please if you love him and you are willing to help and adopt him just get back so that we can get him ship over to you. . I am presently Here in Cameroon working as a translator in the Unity Place here in Cameroon. I am one of the best translator of the president of Cameroon. So I will be shipping the puppy from here. I don't know if You will be comfortable to get him ship over to the states. If this sounds well then get back so that we can come up with some thing. I was previously located in Minnesota Town Down St. Paul before I got this job in Cameroon. I will like you to get back to me with your full contact address and your phone number if you don't mine and not to forget the closest airport around you that I will be shipping to.
