[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16123"] Recently I had an e-mail request from an alleged Veterinarian from New Zealand who allegedly was doing research in Kenya. He wanted to purchase 100 straws. Out of curiosity, I emailed him back about all of the complications of such foreign frozen semen shipments to foreign countries, etc., etc. He replied back indicating that he would have his "agent" pick up the semen here. Duh! What part of a "scam" doesn't he understand? I'm definitely not the gullible type; however, it is very interesting that someone in Kenya couldn't find semen in their area to purchase.
