Here is a sample of some of the conversations with this persistent scammer. Even 2 weeks after the "vacation" he had requested had passed, he was still trying to contact the sitter to send her money. This one is backwards - read from the bottom up.

Since you have not been able to fill out the forms as per our requirements, I have been forced to cancel our agreement. I explained our policies and requirements to you clearly, multiple times. I do not take on clients who cannot meet the requirements on time, as I am too busy to chase down paperwork and late payments.

I have these requirements so that I can be sure pets are properly cared for. These requirements are non-negotiable.

Good morning Ms Smith,

I have linked the forms you will need to fill out for your pet sitting service below. They are also linked from our website in case you loose this message. I will need to receive the completed forms prior to starting your service - so within the next 3 days. Please print the forms, complete the forms with a pen, and fax each form to [----]. You will need to sign each form also.

One pet information form will need to be completed for each of the dogs:
[link]

The remaining forms only need to be completed once:
[link]

I will also need a picture of each dog, with it's name written on the picture. You can fax that to the fax number above, or email those to me.

There are two more forms I will have you fill out when I receive your payment (the Home Guide, and the Contact Information form). If I do not receive the completed forms by the scheduled start of service, I'll assume you decided to cancel the service request.

Thanks!
-----

I wish to let you know that my contract with you remain intact,with or without my presence, the contract begins on the 29th of november as agreed upon,if there is the delay in my arrival to the states i will pay you without the service be done,a contract is a contract so if you are only able to pet sit my pet for three days due to lateness i will pay you for two weeks as that is the contract agreement.
You will receive the payment sometime nextweek,the payment as already been registered with UPS courier service but as not been finally handed over to them,remain calm and you will receive your payments.
Robin
