Total thief. Sent money thru Zelle as requested and was given a phony tracking number. Went to my bank for help #PNC and they said they could do nothing. (PNC is part owner of Zelle) Contacted #Wells Fargo the bank money sent to and they refused to help. I was told by them PNC had to investigate and PNC said Wells Fargo had to start investigation. Both banks did nothing.

They gave me a tracking # then they email me that the puppy is to small and he needs a to travel in a special thermal crate that I can rent for $1300 and I well get refund 98% when I get the puppy so I did. Then they email me that his in Oh and he need a permit to inter to ILL and some vaccinations and they wanted $1550 refundable so I did because I called the text the lady and she told me that they ask that but they refund the money back not to worry. I was supposed to get the puppy today but now their asking for more money for insurance because he was going to be home delivered and just in case something happened to the puppy, I text Trina so many time about that and no answer, I email the carrier to cancel the order and they didn’t answer me again, I felt so stupid trusting them. And so far neither of them respond I am out of $3000 for every. I hope you read this before it happens to you.

The accused asks for payment for a puppy that may or may not exist. If a payment is made it is extremely hard to recover if you do not receive said puppy.
