Ok so I haven't paid yet. next I get a series of texts asking me questions about which lizard I want. they ask me to pay so they can ship. well its like 6:30 at night, that was the second red flag. The next day I ask them for their address so I can send them cash, they said no has to be paypal. Next I ask if I can Venmo and they agree.
here's a screen shot of their venmo red flag 3 or 4 at this point. the communication is spotty during all of this.
The phone number on my text thread matches the website, but the venmo number is different and totally disconnected, if you call the number on the web site and my text thread, they have a recording that someone is coming but never does.
He got the money from my Venmo. but I never get a receipt or confirmation email. So I reach out via text.
Here's the email I get.
