Type of a scam Online Purchase
I thought I was getting yorkie puppies sent to me and I kept a getting emails to send money. One was to send $700 for the special crate to ship the dog and a vaccine to ship them. I tiled the seller to pay it. He only paid $200 supposedly. Then after this carrier got that they sent me another email stating that they need a certificate of insurance for travel. For $470. My mom paid that for the two yorkies. So after that they message me agin and say well they need $140 for food and accommodations. This is after dealing with them all day. Texting between the breeder and the carrier. So once we refused to pay and asked for a refund they sent me another email with a fake agency PTS (pet transportation security) that will charge me for abandoning the dogs. I asked for videos they showed me videos of two yorkie puppies. I said you can’t charge me for abandonment when they are t in my name I never signed anything to get them. So they refused and would call me and try to get me to pay more saying it’s all refundable when the puppies arrive at my door step. A total of $1150. I spent for the two dogs to get shipped here. I’m a disabled mom with Crohn’s disease looking for an emotional support dog. I call the police and filed a report. I reported them to whoever I can. This is the second yorkie scam got a month ago by another breeder. Never buy over social media. If it’s too good to be true it is. They are scamming and using fake pictures and videos with the promise of puppies getting delivered and refund when they arrive. Their website is a total scam. None of the links work the carrier website. Great where I spent most of my money. They need to be tracked down and stopped with this criminal activity. They only wanted to deal through cash app. People are cruel. They were foreign and called me names. So many red flags and I was too stupid to catch on because of the excitement of getting these pups and have a surprise for my mom and son. I’m so disappointed that these people do this. I received nothing just an empt bank account
