WYOMING, Mich. -- A Michigan man is warning others after his online search for an exotic pet cost him thousands of dollars.

"I needed a monkey. I needed to be different," Don Abrego said.

He wanted a capuchin money and found one three weeks ago, supposedly in Hawaii, according to WXMI. However, as soon as his first $400 payment cleared, he said the problems began. The shipper was requesting more money and claimed it was for flight cancellations and vaccination costs. So Abrego shelled out more cash.

Monkeys are criminals and terrorists.  :mad:  :argh:

I'll most definitely keep that in mind when I'm thinking about buying a monkey online.

Amazing.  Just yesterday I got an email from a member of the Nigerian royal family offering to sell me a rare monkey and all i had to do to purchase it was provide him with my bank routing and account number...
