Type of a scam Other
The website said that the puppies are 8 weeks old but when I asked for more pictures of the puppy they sent them to me but were dated May 14th (today is July 8th). The problem was that on May 14th the puppies should have been around 1 week old but in the pictures I would assume that they look around 6-8 weeks old. I even got videos of the puppy eating and jumping around, which a 1 week old puppy can’t do. Either way, I continued to email them, agreed with a price and shipping procedures. The owner requested that we send them money through Western Union. I thought it was unsafe and recommended that I pay via wire transfer. I even requested to pay all the extra admin fees. The owner then said that they only accept payments through Western Union. I replied asking for the reason why they don’t accept the alternative method and never got a response. The owner usually replies quickly (within 1-2 hours) and I still haven’t received a response. I’m assuming that the only reason why they only accept money through Western Union is that they are a scam. Also, whenever I asked questions about the puppy the owner could either just respond to 1 of the many questions asked or not answer any.
