Fake travel agency that was supposed to transport our puppy. Asked for pet insurance, a crate, then additional funds for shots and microchip. Never traveled with or delivered the puppy we paid for. No one at this company can be reached. They have people with faces on their website but you cannot contact any of them.

I was purchasing an Olde English Bulldogge for my daughter. The seller took it to be shipped. The shipping people sent me an email that the crate was wrong and I had to rent a crate for $1500 but my monies would be refunded when the dog was delivered to my door. The website had no phone number and when I clicked on it to contact them it went to a website not found comment. Additionally, global logistics wanted me to send money to the seller to get the crate purchased faster. The clincher was the phone number that came back was an Alabama phone number for a South Carolina company.

Type of a scam Employment
The scam starts as a job offer as a Project Manager for a logistics company. Each week they send you information to review and then a test at the end of each week. As you do well they give you side projects to earn more points and better your position. The “special project” is to procure equipment for an office they are opening at a type of test. The scam comes into play when you have you transfer money from their account to your credit card in order to purchase the equipment. It is at this point I realized the scam and was even able to find a thread on LinkedIn about it by preforming a google search on the phone number.
