I was looking for a puppie on Craigslist when I came across a very cute English bulldog. I contacted the seller and he started to tell me he did not live in state anymore and moved because his wife had died and he’s selling the puppies because he cannot afford to take care of them. He said that they would only be $440 and when he got to the shipping agency he called me again and said that he needed a insurance fee of $850 ?! Are you kidding me. That’s so ridiculous. I told him that that is very ridiculous and he proceeded to tell me to trust him and that I have his word. He then said that he would pay half of the price. The next day the ‘company’ called me and told me that they needed another fee of $320 for document reasons for the puppie. I kept telling them no! I do not have anymore money. ( I was not going to pay anymore money) after that the seller calls me and tells me to trust them and that he will pay any other half of the fee.
