Strange Email - Adopting Overseas

I received this email today and i can't quite understand why someone would do this but maybe theres more to it... unfortunatley the dog is no longer with us...but yeah strange. I believe he got my email address from Petfinder.ca or this site...


Dear Sir/Ma,
I am a Veterinary Doctor From Africa
with clients all over West African countries and UK
cities, we also run many zoo in some African cities
and London towns. I have Clinics in most west African
and UK Cities. I can assure you that your pet is not
going for experiment or going to end up in Lab.
testing. I have a client who's interested in your
lovely pet and also willing to pay me anything i
charged to bring it to his lovely home, he's a pet
lover and we pay him visit every week for treatment to
all his pets. I will need to know some certain things
that gets the pet anoyed and things that gets it
aggressive.
Inrespect of
payment i have a client in the USA who he has agreed
to procure a Cashier's check or postal money order for
($5,500
US) which he's oweing me to you. All i need to do to
make payment easier and faster is to instruct him to
procure a cashier's check or Postal Money Order and
mail it to you on the address and name you want on the
check or Postal money order. But i would want to know
if i can trust you to send the remainder of the funds
to my shipper via Western union Money
Transfer, as soon as the check or postal money order
get cashed so that my shipper will make arrangement
for the pick up at your location to deliver it to my
client's home, he will need this money to secure
flight tickets to North and South America to pick all
the Animal i Adopted and deliver all to thier
different homes in UK. I will like you to
mail me asap to enable me arrange payment.
Furnish me with the name you want on the check or
postal money order, your home address as in
zipcode,city,etc and your contact phone number, so I
can forward it to my client who will purchase the
check or postal money order for the payment.
If you have any question or enquiry to make about
this.
You can reach me on phone number
Thank you
Dr. Brown
