Total money lost $900
Type of a scam Online Purchase
I found AmazingGoldenHome.com through Google Search to find a Golden Retriever Puppy. The website looked legitimate. I contacted them and responses were complete and sounded like a real breeder. The person asked to send money via Zelle in the amount of $800 for dog, $50 for shipping, and $50 shipping to home address. The person asked to take a screenshot to confirm money was present in my account. Person continued the rouse for a week until the puppy was supposed to be delivered.
Bill of Sale was Angelic Golden Retrievers c/o Jahriel Conteh.
Money was sent to Jahriel Conteh @ [email protected]
I was contacted the day of delivery and I was told to pay for Travel Insurance in the amount of $950 and that it was 95% refundable after receipt of the dog. I was called, emailed but Travel2Go and [email protected] When I said I was not going to pay they additional fee they ghosted me and will not return any communication.
Zelle has NO consumer protections. Once you send a payment you CANNOT retrieve those funds. BUYER BEWARE!!
These people are evil and the website still stays up to scam more people. Please help me take them down. If you have been scammed by these people:
