Thank you for posting. You're right, all offers of gold or diamonds from Cameroon are scams and the same criminals also advertise drugs, pets, agricultural products etc..,

When it comes to B2B site like Alibaba and Tradekey, 100% of offers from Cameroon have been frauds in my experience, that's no small feat as it beats even Nigeria in that respect.
