According to a search 9726943715 is a landline:

Phone Company: VERIZON SOUTHWEST - TX
Line Type: Land Line
Switch: JSPHTXXARS0
Call Center City: JOSEPHINE (Texas)

A Google on it (9726943715 + scam) shows that the number has been used for a number of pet ads in the US.

2 Yorkshire Terriers

I noticed a craigslist ad about 2 yorkies. I responded to the ad and received the following email from Rev Matthew B Frease (matthewbfrease@yahoo.com).

Hello,

Thanks for your interest in my Yorkie and I am so glad you emailed me.I want you to know that I and my family my wife And My Son are on a missionary trip to West Africa along with the 2 Yorkshire terrier Puppies.

So later on we notice that the weather here In Africa is very very bad for the puppies to sustain here with us on the missionary trip. So my wife and I decided to put the advert in Craigslist that we are Looking for someone to adopt our babies back to the state.

I am very glad that you are willing to take care of them and provide them a good and wonderful home. And we're visiting 3 countries and we are in the 2nd country.
We are giving these puppies out for adoption and we owe you many thanks for caring and asking about them. Right now there are so many factors and the weather is too hot for them and we don't want them to suffer in anyway. We have been praying to have someone who can take good care of them and give them all the love in the world.

That's all they want. We're due for more travel to some remote part of West Africa and we Cannot risk taking them along as we know it will have adverse effect on them, health wise.Can you tell us a little bit more about you? Lucy is 1.9lbs and while the male Terry weigh 2lbs, both are 14 weeks Old they should be to 3 to 4lb range full grown, they are potty Trained and very friendly with children they fit in the palm of your Hand if you are that caring like we do to them.

They’re lovely puppies will come along with all necessary health Paper work and Vet Record, Birth Certificate, Shot Book, Travel Crate, Toys and Foods. We are going to ship to you via a Diplomatic Courier Service Company with Express Delivery on next day delivery, if You are really interested in having my little babies, I want you to Get back to me with the below information of yours and if you are not also interested let me know likewise.


Provide me with the above details of yours to proceed in the shipment of the puppies to you, they are priceless to us,therefore we are Giving both for free, so I will like you to get back to me with your
Full name?
full address?
Your Mailing Address?
Your Tel No/Your Cell Phone?
your nearest airport?
so that I Can find out shipping cost. Please, note that we shall both split and Pay the shipment fee to get the puppies to you as we are not sure of The shipment cost and we don’t have big money here yet as we are on a Missionary mission and we have to limit our spending for now and not Until we get paid. Thanks again for your love and care for our adorable babies! We will Be looking forward to your response.

Thank you and Remain Bless

Rev MATHEW and Family

Hold on to your money! I hope this saves a few people.

Scams

Hello,
I am pleased with the interest you are having in my puppies. Presently i am having 2 puppies now available and ready to move to their new homes Danny (Male) and Bella (Female), they are both 12 weeks old. All my puppies are healthy as you can see on the photos and have taken all their shots. They are all AKC registered, potty trained and have all health papers and will come along with them.
We are giving them out for just $250 including transportation and delivery fee from our current location here in OHIO (U.S.A).
I am willing to give them to any home willing and able to take good care of them.My greatest desire for these puppies is everlasting joy and hap pines in any home which they may me.I will like you to promise me that you will take very good care of them before i will be able so send them to you.Just to know a few about you, i will like to know where you are located, a brief description of your house,if you have kids and finally may i have your cell number and house number? Which of the puppies will you like? I am giving these puppies out because of the nature of my job, because i do not spend much time with them at home and so i need a loving home for them, So i await your email so we can proceed. So should i educate you more on transportation?
Thanks and waiting to read from you soonest.

MR. GAELLE

All we need is your word that these babies shall be spoiled and treated as the Prince and Princes that they really are.We really need the best home for the babies so we would be happy if you can provide us with the following information: Reasons for giving them out for re-homing is because we recently located in Memphis, TN.We are into a non pet apartment and according to tenancy agreement pets are not allowed we have been offered a week to get rid of the puppies. Before we proceed i will need the following information for a delivery and Ownership Papers.

Your Full Names..................?
State....................................?
City......................................?
Zip Code..............................?
Home Address.....................?
Nearest Airport to your home...?

The puppies have the credentials are as follows

- One year health guarantee.
