but im thinking mega scam?

Hello ,
Thanks for the interested in this my lovely male and female babies capuchin monkeys for which i am willing to offer for adoption ,i am located in Western Region of St Cameroon , where i will be shipping the Baby Monkeys to your location, which they will be delivered right at your door steps in a crate and all play toys,they are still available and they are 2 of them ,a male and female by name call (Tony and Julie). i am just so concerned about their welfare and hope you can assure me of that.
they are barely 10weeks old and home raised, potty trained and well socialized and gets along perfectly with children and other pets.Julie and Tony are pure breed babies capuchin monkeys and up to date vet registered.they weighs 1.6ibs and will be approximately 3ibs full grown. Julie and Tony are updated on all their shots and comes with a year health guarantee..they loves to be carried around and cuddled and full of caressing and kisses.and they will obey all commands like when you say to them come here, lie down and they will obey them instantly ,like i said they are just the best you can think of having , they will make a great joy to you and your family , i was advice by my vet doctors not to separate them cuz it may affect their health cuz since they always be together but there will be no problem if you prefer to take one of them that will still be fine by me ok .
they comes alongside the following
- A year health guarantee
-Vet registration papers
-Pedigree papers
-An air conditioned crate
-Vet record
-Food samples
-monkey toys
All we need is a loving and forever home for Julie
and Tony. We want them to be happy forever. and the flight will take just about a few hours to arrive to your location okay . however, i can have both of them transported to you if you can assure me that you will take proper care of them by answering to the below questions
Where are you located...................?
Have you kids....................................?
Are you a christian......................?
Have you ever had a monkey before.......?
Do you promise to take proper care of them.............?
To provide pictures so i see how they are doing........?
Which of the two will you like to take...............?
Thanks so much and get back to me if you think you can provide a good home below are some of their photos together with their mother on this email hope you love them.
Regards. and God bless you and your family

That's ridiculous.

"Do you promise to take proper care of them?" made me laugh a bit.

Looks very similar to the puppy scam IMO, ask if you can collect, I guarantee they'll be too far away of busy, or don't want people coming to their house.
