Total money lost $1,600
Type of a scam Online Purchase
I found the website for Bright Lab Retrievers on line. I contacted them about a silver lab puppy they had and was assured that they could get it to me via air flight. I even expressed a concern about getting caught in a scam and they told me that they were christian people and no way would their moral compass allow them to not deliver the product they promised. I wired the $600.00 for the purchase. They then needed $900.00 to rent an climate control crate to fly her here. That money would be refunded by the person who delivered the puppy to my door. I sent that money by Western Union. When I got home from that they called and needed money for insurance. That is when I pulled the plug.
I knew that I had been scammed. They knew exactly what to say to pull at my heart strings. They offered to send her blanket and toys with her to make her more comfortable. I never thought I could be caught in a scam like this.
They had me send the purchase price money to Shaniecee Ellis ( [email protected] )
