i searched over the internet for a Mini Dachshund puppy and came across their site. I thought it was legitimate and contacted them it all seem real upfront.Until it came to pay and ship they gave me this address to send money to this one email address and it didn’t go through so they tried another email address it didn’t go through. So they said to go ahead and send it through PayPal. OK so I did that is when red flags go up.I sent it through PayPal because I knew it would be safe. this morning I got online and PayPal refused Paymentto them and I got my money back. Then in my emails they sent me another request to send money and they would ship the Puppy to the Decatur Airport. But when I was trying to get an aswer to what aiport they would not answer. they are now trying to get me to continue the tranaction. I have printed off all the email correspondence. And I have sigature ofthe seller Can’t read his handwriting, A Thomas Martinez but that signature doesnot look like that name and then a Michael Holmes Burkinbehind his name it says State Attorney then under his name it says Dept. of Justice/Executive Officer for Attorney.
