This community of cat lovers just saved me $250 from a scam. I was reading posts that were from people on this site and saw pictures of the same cats I was interested in. Same hook used, "we are moving and can't take them with us." "Just pay transportation fee." (Western Union). I almost fell for it. So now, I will donate $35.00 to the site this month for saving me a bundle. If you are looking at baldcats.tk it's a scam. Also the email domain @live.com has been used over and over for the same purpose. I'm sure glad I did my homework and hope that I may have saved other people money as well. Here's the contact info of the scammer:

The 'M.O.' this one is using is that they are moving to Hawaii and can't take the kittens with them. All you have to pay is transportation fee. ($250)
Here's an excerp from the email:
Ok. Well i understand you well. Well we are actually given our kittens out because we are traveling to Hawaii and we cannot take them along because of the laws they have there. So all we need is a home for them where they will be love and cared for. Actually we are not breedes but like keeping animals and many sphynx.
They are all well trained,friendly with kids and other pets. They are perfect in health and will come with their papers. They are upto date on shots. I will be sending a kitten with a hand manual guide which will direct you on how to cater for them, as of when to bath them and feeding, all what they eat. None of them are altered nor fixed . i mean the females are not spayed and they males not neutered.
So Mercy will be a good pet for you.
I am located in Wyandotte,Michigan, so to have her it will need for me to ship her to you and all you will be paying is just the transportation fee $250 . It will be like 3 hours flight to get her to you in Texas. We can maka all arrangements today and i send her to you.
So to send her, i will need your full names and address and name of airport closest to you where she will be shipped to. as soon as i get that, i will let you know how to send the money so that i can have her shipped. If there is anything else you will like to know feel free to ask me.
Waiting to read from you.
Thanks.
