They have a website that sells Yorkie puppies and they send you a Bill of Sale/ Sales Contract for the Dog that they show signed by them and then they ask you to sign it and send it back to them. After that they ask for $600 for the puppy and if you can't pick it up in person they offer a shipping service with a company, also a fake website, https://kalemlogistics.com that the breeder says they work with but the shipping would be an additional $180 to ship and $50 for home delivery from airport. So the dog was a total of $830. They requested the money to be sent by either Western Union, Walmart 2 Walmart, and Money Gram. When the payment is made they ask to be sent a copy of the payment receipt. I used Western Union to by him. The day he was supposed to ship the puppy called Asher to me he sends me an email saying when he was going to the airport and then another one after he dropped the dog off with a Tracking number for the dog from this Kalem Logistics Company that is handling the Air Freight of the dog. The tracking number I put into the Kalem site to track the status of the dog does give me a page with all my information and the breeders and dogs information. It looks legit with a tracking scan code and everything. Then about 2 hours later I get an email from Kalem Logistics at: 7100 TERMINAL DR, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73159 [email protected]

I called the number listed for Kalem Logistics at +1(405)-648-3964 and someone answered the phone Kalem how can I help you and I asked what is going on. The man on the phone said they tried calling me 3 times but no answer on my phone, I said no you didn't my phone never rang and I have no missed calls. He said he did and I missed the original flight out for the dog but if I rent this approved crate from them they can get the dog on the next flight out in an hour. I said frantically I would go to Western Union and send the money so my dog is not stranded. He said to email him proof of the payment receipt so they can then ship out my dog to me. I hung up the phone and then started to look into this bizarre call and email. I tried to contact the breeder by phone and the number was disconnected. I emailed the breeder and no response. I then called back Kalem Logistics and asked why do they not take credit card payments for this crate rental for the dog. Any leigimate business would take credit cards and not wire transfers and he got upset with me on the phone and said don't tell me how to run the business this is how it is done. I asked to talk to his supervisor and he said he was the manager. He then said if the money isn't sent for the crate rental then the dog can't be shipped out and someone will have to pick up the dog me or the breeder that dropped him off. I said do you have a phone number for the breeder that you can give me because the one I had for him is not working anymore. He then hung up on me. In my further looking into the Kalem Logistics website I saw other numbers listed for Quotes for shipping and it was a different number then the one I just called so I called that one and it was a dead number that didn't exist. That is when I fully realized I was massively scammed this whole time, but thank god I didn't fall for sending the additional money. I was ripped off the initial $830 for the dog but it could of been worse with this additional $1180 they were demanding for an additional shipping fee.
