Type of a scam Online Purchase

went to craigslist and found a listing for a puppy near me. contacted the person but was told they moved and their new landlord doesn’t allow pets (i know why would you rent a place that doesn’t allow pets when you have pets- flag one) with a need to find a loving home for their pets they would give them away for free but i would have to pay shipping since they lived in a faraway state. they even asked about my experience with pets and said god bless you to make you believe they are a christian and are concerned for their puppy;s well-fare. by this time i didnt think anything was wrong, but i started to worry about a scam when they said they will use a shipping company to have them shipped to our home. i couldnt find a company that said they would do that. they said they set up the travel ticket and they would send me the link to pay. they wanted a money order which you cant track or stop. the website called international pet shippers was a specific name but had large shipping crates as the picture and said it shipped cars and other items as well. on the site the street address was for new york but the area code on the phone number was for north carolina. well i told them i thought they were apart of a scam or their shipping company was. i gave them the option to use a shipping company of my choosing but they just kept responding that everything is going to be okay and to just trust them. i told them that i wouldnt compromise and i was no longer interested. i feel like i dodged a bullet. the scammer used the name mellisa tarsha and wanted the money order paid to the name Thompson Brian in Columbus Ohio
