business/website claimed to sell puppies. I reached out via email, also spoke over the phone with the person to claimed to be selling dogs. After receiving pictures and information about the adoption process, I was

told I would be sent a contract and have the puppy shipped to me within 24 hours of payment. I made payment and received no answers through email or over the phone. After persistent calls to the phone number the person I then spoke to alleged he needed to speak to his father about the arrangement I paid for and would get back to me in two hours. This was 48 hours ago.

Website on Facebook showing a number of young pets and puppies. We kept contact via email but at the time of sending the payment something was off. I got a phone number to send the payment via Zelle but the number was from Illinois. That didn't seat right then it down on me that they had too many expensive dogs breed puppies. Also, when you adopt you pay the shelter not some guy via Zelle. He asked me to use Paypal. I'm waiting to see what he came come up with next. It's sad they're doing this.

I was connected on Facebook to Miley Rose who’s presenting herself as sugar glider hobbie breeder. Offering free next day delivery of a sugat glider for 250 / for 1 or 400$ for 2. Requires 50% deposit and other half paid upon delivery. I paid the deposit with Zelle to a bank account under Elijah Hall with phone number 706-877-4524, sent me the bill of sale, once I signed it, Miley Rose changed the conditions and demanded full payment or won’t deliver. Well after all I’m not stupid to spend and other 125 to try to get back 125 than after 250 so I refused to pay it. I consider this very bad business practice as is when you try to change terms after we signed papers. It’s unlawful and if you try this, you clearly can not be trusted. At the begging she seemed like willing to refund my deposit but that that turned out to be “ no refund will be issued” somehow. At this point I don’t know if this person breeding any sugar gliders or not, maybe she got 1 but I don’t think she breeding anything but bad intentions to others and rip off scams. The sugar glider page since got renamed to something else “ matching entrepreneur with righ angle businesses “ or smtng like it so clearly this person seems shady. After all thinking this thru over and over again, I think bill of sale was for to get ur personal signature, who knows for what, 125$ deposit for to find and match u with ur bank account. She has the address for delivery reasons an other personal info she collected but since I’m not doing fraud I’m not sure what these collected informations can be used for or where could be abused.

So out of my desperation I came here too, file a report and hope that someone one day will take the time and find this person to be held accountable. Disgusting some peoples, unbelievable how scammers becoming more and more creative with less and less morals. Shames of humanity, because there are levels in dirty and this is just filthy as can be, so dirty. The fact that she’s targeting mainly children and mothers is disgusting and so low grade even between criminal's. A thief from a store is way more classy compared to this person or someone like her.

We reached out about a potential puppy and we received an email within minutes. The email was riddled with grammatical and punctual errors, and seemed too good to be true. They texted and seemed very responsive. However, I looked up the phone number and saw it was the same as a previous puppy scam.

I was trying to purchase a puppy from a rescue service and was told that it would cost $350 that would include all paperwork I can sign on arrival of puppy and $250 would need to be sent to reserve the puppy. Then final payment would be due upon delivery. Well I did just that I sent payment was sent conformation that the puppy was reserved and could be delivered to me the next day on 07/06/2024 by Noon. On day of delivery I contacted the sell and was told by her that she had had an accident and would not be able to delivery my puppy but she could just ship the puppy with the money $250 I had already paid her to ship to puppy to me and it would be delivered to my door step and that there would be no additional charge and she would send me a tracking well when I received the tracking number I was ask to pay another $210 for a medical crate for transport. I contacted the seller again and told her I thought you said there would be no more fee's. So me and her with back and forth for about 5 hours me tell her this is bad bussiness you said there would be no additional fee's. So she then offered to pay have for the crate and I take the other $100 that was own to pay for the crate to transport the puppy. Then I was being ask to send to money via cashapp for various different people when the first payment wouldn't go through supposedly who work for the shipment agency which is named Worldwide freight express best freight agency.... ([email protected]). After that payment was made I received conformation that the puppy was on the way and would reach my home by 7pm on 07/06/2024 well about 6:30pm I receive message saying I need pay another $500 within 25 min in order to get my puppy. At that point I had enough I said no I will not sent anymore money I would just like a refund I contacted the seller and ask for a refund and was told she used it to buy meds for her self.

The scammer has my name, address and email address. I was ready to set up shipment to receive a puppy. The tactic is cute pictures of cute Papillons. I also thought the price to ship the puppy was extremely low so I thought I'd check it out. I'm disappointed because I fell in love with the puppy but I'm happy to know that I wasn't going to lose a lot of money

This place offered to sell a teacup yorkie to us for 500 dollars, to ship it to us was another 300 dollars for a total of 800 dollars. They claimed they shipped it by air. Supposedly it landed at the Richmond Airport in Virginia and they gronded the puppy saying it needed to be in a different kind of carrier and i was suppose to send 1445 dollars for shipping unsurance and the cost a soft sided carrier. Thetly said i would get refunded 1300 dollars afterwards. It was just a scam to try to get as much money as they could, but i did not do it. They will not answer any calls, text or anything
