Total money lost $800
Type of a scam Online Purchase
My fiance came to this website to look for chihuahua puppies as a Christmas gift to me. The website looked legit and there was a button to click to send a message and get someone from the “company” to contact you. When we told the company which two chihuahuas we wanted, we were sent directions for payment to be made via Western Union. Since Western Union is a legitimate money transferring company, we didn’t think twice about it. Once we wired $800 where we were instructed, the emails from Jerry stopped. When we started to wonder what was going on, I started to dig and saw that many other couples fell victims of this scam. Since we paid in cash at Western Union and the money was quickly picked up (go figure), there is absolutely nothing anyone can do to get our money back (apparently).

I fell in love with a puppy pictured on their website. As soon as I clicked on the picture a chat conversation immediately showed up. I explained that I needed a few days to have the total purchase price of $499. So I was told to make a partial payment to hold the puppy. I followed the instructions and transferred $199 through Zelle to Andrea Tyler account [email protected] That night I saw a scam alert on Posh Puppy. For four days I have tried to contact them and no response. I have also reached out to Zelle and no response. I will continue to fight for my money back. I hope this gets shut down and no one else falls prey to this disgusting method of stealing hard earned money!

We ordered a puppy online through Posh Puppy For a cost of $583.74. We were told we would have the puppy by 11/21/2019. Than we got a phone call that the puppy could not be delivered due to cold weather and needed special dog crating which would cost $ 1193.00 more. Sent the money by WU and never received the Maltese puppy we ordered. This is definitely a fraud place on line. We probably won’t ever see our money back, but wish to have you investigate, and maybe something can be done to recover some of our loss.
Thank you!
