Type of a scam Online Purchase
Contacted farfanpoodlefarm by e-mail via their website to purchase a puppy. Was directed to continue via text to above #. They e-mailed me tracking # from where they had shipped puppy via Arizonair Movers, and I money-grammed payment for puppy & shipping. The next morning I received an e-mail and phone call from shipping co stating I needed to pay 1250.00 for insurance and special crate, to be refunded upon delivery, before they could continue with shipment from Chicago. I told them to contact shipper for money as they should be responsible. I also texted them and they pretended to take action. I continued to text them several times and he finally texted me that he didn’t have money and has not answered any of my texts or e-mails since.
