We were searching for a Maine C o o n cat for my daughter’s birthday. The site seemed legit, with real links to Instagram and Facebook. We searched their availability of kittens and found one we liked and used the contact us button. Gave simple info and got a text the next day. They sent an email outlining the process and how it all works and instructions on how to care for our new pet and a list of supplies they will include. Gave a cost and asked us vetting questions to determine if we would be a good home. Once approved, they sent another email asking for address and phone numbers. Then they sent their payment info link, which brought us to Zelle. I have used Zelle a number of times without issue. So I didn’t think anything of it. Once we sent payment, they ghosted us. Haven’t heard a word from them since. No return emails or texts. Don’t trust these people.

Seller site is Harlequinpaws.com, and they specialize in selling Maine C o o n and Ragdoll Kittens. We initiated in a purchase of a kitten for $550.00 and totaling $693 for transport fees and taxes etc., and was very excited in receiving a unique kitten. Seller said we had to make additional payments of $990.00 which would be a deposit for a special transport carrier. Our payment fees were stopped by PayPal for additional services, which led my wife and I to investigate the additional service fees and the related transport company All Forward Transport Dept, https://www.afptdept.com/. In searching this company, we were made aware of Pet Transport Frauds, which made us aware that we were targeted for a scam and fraud.
