Type of a scam Online Purchase
I ordered a british shorthair kitten on the internet worth $500 for my daughter as her birthday present. It was stated there “Free Shipping”.The breeder is from Oklahoma. It went well initially like it was real. I was suspicious when the seller informed me that I need to rent a thermal regulator crate and that to wait for the email confirmation from Air Pets Movers. After an hour I finally received an email from Air Pets Movers informing me that they won’t shipped the kitten if I don’t rent the crate worth $950. I rang the # provided but no answer at all. The email content looked absurd and that’s when I became suspicious.
I emailed the seller and told him to cancel the transaction and to refund me. No reply at all. I called him the next day, spoke to him but hanged up on me. He then blocked my number so he is unreachable.
