Type of a scam Online Purchase
On 12-16-18 we initiated contact with www.***.com. (We later discovered they were fraudulent as well. Phone: 405-716-4653 Email: [email protected]) After choosing two puppies, we wire transferred thru *** the price of the two puppies ($1200.00). We were told we would be contacted by the shipper who would arrange delivery. We were contacted by *** but told the puppies would need a climate-controlled crate for transport, that we would be refunded all but 2% of the amount when we received the puppies. Thru *** we wired $2500 and then $490, for the total fee of $2990. We were then told we needed to send another $2990 for a second crate because there were two puppies. At that point we started Googling the shipper and the seller and determined from other reports online that they were a scam.
