Type of a scam Online Purchase
I went to what appeared to be a legitimate website and used the contact us button and input my information. I got a text a couple of hours later from someone identifying with this company and bought a puppy from him. He said his name was Joshua David. I paid by Zelle and was told the puppy would be shipped to me. The next day I was told that the puppy was being shipped by airfreight. About halfway through the day I received an email from the "shipping" company saying that the puppy was stuck in Nebraska and that they wouldn’t release it without insurance, which costs $990.00. I emailed the company, texted the person, and used the contact us button again and have not heard back from them. These people need their website shut down because it really looks legitimate. So does the website for the shipping company they use.
