Total money lost $700
Type of a scam Online Purchase
I was trying to purchase a Bengal Kitten for my son’s 5th Birthday with Zelle. I found an adorable kitten on Eddy’s Cute Bengal Cats web-site and asked for more information. He replied with an email and the transaction began. I paid $700.00 for a Bengal Kitten and when it was time to ship her I was "required" to upgrade her crate for an additional $1200.00 that was supposed to be 95% refundable upon delivery. I called the delivery place and it was literally the same guy that I bought the cat from. He was scamming me. I refused to upgrade the crate and confronted him and he hung up on me and refused to talk to me again. I sent him several text messages and he did respond in a smart *** manor at one point, but did not admit guilt. He will not refund my money. My son now has no gift.
