Going to buy a Labrador puppy from a website, virginia.backpage.com/online/classifieds/AdNotFound?category=4428 , the post isnt there anymore but looks exactly like the post that says "Gorgeous LABRADOR R Puppies reach us @4108884492" me and my husband saw online. The seller, Carine Stela, explained how she has been breeding dogs for 11 years. Talked about how the dogs are raised in a home with visit from her family and they are very sociable and how much they care for their dogs and the love they have for them. Then asked questions: "How much experience do you have with this breed?
Why are you interested in this breed?
How much time are you ready to provide or Spend with your puppy?
How soon do you need the puppy(s) over?
Do you have kids or other pets?
Where are you located?
Would you take both or just single if single what sex?" i also sent pictures of my home because she asked. Made it seem as if it was all legit, that the dogs are pure bred and in the AKC sent with many pictures of the dogs she was selling. They live in New castle, Pennsylvania, she said that they have shipped dogs to people before that it wouldn’t be a problem payed 650 for the dog and shipping expenses. We sent the money through Western union. I received an email from a company who was sending puppy "Global Logistics, [email protected]" saying we have to pay 950.00 for the dog because it had wrong crate and it needed medical attention, we payed 650 out of the 950. Then another problem with the dogs insurance which came with another email from a company "pet insurance review, pet insurance pro" we paid not knowing all of this was a scam. There was 6 problems in total all with emails from the company saying we didnt have the right documents to send the dog to us and all charges are refundable. There was complications due to weather, the dog needed medical attention, that the dog was going to be put in quarantine for 6 months if we didnt pay, including me getting informed i will be getting charged for animal abuse due to abandonment, with 5 years in prison when i have never held, touched or seen the dog with my own eyes. She made it seem so real on how caring she was, she called the puppy a "baby" and how she was "helping" us pay for the dog and the complications from the company that we didnt know it was a scam until we looked up on a scam website where one of the 5 names we sent money to was on it exactly <span title="http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=135763&p=322563&hilit=bill+peterson&sid=bfc0d596045f95c79456a0df829ea42c#p322563
