I am very sketchy on have them shipped from Africa, with all of the scams around there I don't know what to do. They are coming with papers, usda papers, certified health certificate, and its pedigree. She is asking for a moneygram which sent up a red flag. But after doing research I found that no escrow service will do business with Africa. Is there a way to send a moneygram that she can't pick up till I clear the pups? Any suggestions will be great.

Yep, scam alert! They are doing this with Parrots as well. Somone I know just lost out on $200 because the owners job was relocating them to AFRICA and all he wanted was what it would cost to ship. He gave her everything she needed...name, address, phone number...vet papers..everything..all checked out perfectly...and in return, nothing. His number was changed, address was never really his, just someone that was in on the scam..the one that the money order was sent to...all of this..happened here in the US..in Florida I believe. Its sad, really.
