Elizabeth Gertruida Pienaar
Complaint 247928 Details

There was an advertisement of this lady currently being in Cameroon (she claims to work for Millpark Hospital) on a HIV Aids campain and is very busy there and cannot take care of her Capuchin monkey named Lily and that she is giving her up for adoption. She advised that the courier agency would contact me with the flight confirmation and arrival times etc. She even sent me a copy of her ID and a fake document with the details of the agency and the registration number etc. When I contacted the number on the attachment of the agency called Skyline Express International nobody even answered in fact the number does not even exist. I received an e-mail from Elizabeth that said she had got an email from Skyline Express International advising her that an Electronic Venilated Crate for the puppy needs to be rented, she said she will email me the email she had got and she did so... Buy the way the email was written in 6 different colors. The email said that the amount needs to be paid before 14.00 today before they can courier the dog and the full amount would be deposited to me upon arrival in South Africa. Elizabeth sent me an email advising that she cannot pay the amount as she has paid allot for the courier fees requesting for me to assist with this payment which would be refunded to me. I also got a email saying she has a bit of the money but I still need to pay the rest or she will loose all her money she had paid... I have read a complaint about her on Scambook about her trying to do the same with her African Greys and bulldogs. I asked her for her contact details and all she said was "sorry my number doesn't roam yet as we just came here, but I will let you know when it starts going through" When I asked her for more evidence of herself to prove that it's not a scam she got so ANGRY!!! She replied by telling me that if that was the way I'm taking it keep everything for yourself because how can I trust my monkey with someone who doesn't trust me in return. 2 days later she emailed me again saying she 'tried' to borrow money for the crate and has no success.... And so it went on! After reading her other stories I just thought to myself thank The Lord for opening my eyes otherwise I would have paid R2200.00 for nothing!!!
