sonecgroup.com is a scam, not to be confused with legitimate SONECO which owns a local supermarket in Yaoundé and does not do exports.

Scam warning from the U.S. Embassy in Cameroon regarding offers of edible oils:

Another recently recorded scam involves individuals claiming to possess large quantities of vegetable oils (soybean, cotton, or palm) to supply raw materials for the biofuels industry. The scammer usually sends out a sales agreement asking the victim to sign and provide bank details, including an irrevocable LC (Letter of Credit). He will also claim to possess samples ready to be shipped to the victim, a well-calculated ploy to encourage the victim to start sending money, usually in small amounts but gradually increasing. In fact, Cameroon does not possess export production capacity for any such products. Local production is insufficient to meet domestic demand and the international market price for these vegetable oils is far lower than the domestic market prices – hence there is no economic incentive to export. In most business scams, transactions are requested to be carried out via Western Union or Moneygram rather than through reputable banks.

Cameroon does not export chicken products. Cameroon does not possess export production capacity for any such products. Local production is insufficient to meet domestic demand and the international market price for these products is far lower than the domestic market prices. Here's an exert from an article by respected Cameroon attorney Roland Abeng regarding this scam:
http://www.chiareport.com/2010/08/ca...-paradise.html
Quote:
Your Excellency, I want to share this recent story of a certain Peter Osborne (a U.S citizen) who earns a decent living in outsourcing for commodities and primary products from Africa and Latin America for Asian and European markets. In April 2010 Osborne veritably believed he had struck a good deal for the purchase of ‘’chicken feet’’ from Cameroon which was to be shipped to a firm in Vietnam. In fact Osborne had two suppliers (whom he contacted through the ALIBABA website) who were to ship three and two 40 foot containers, respectively to Vietnam for a first deal! The total amount for this transaction which was supposed to be the first in a series amounted to USD 60,000.00 and Osborne was prepared to pay the amount in full once he received “scanned” copies of the bills of lading from his Cameroonian suppliers. To show his good faith and excitement Osborne sent an advanced payment of USD 10,000 to the suppliers. 3 days later he sent the remainder of the USD 60,000.00 to the “suppliers” just to discover after a few weeks that he was dealing with scammers.
