I truly wish we’d seen the above. We let excitement get ahead of reason and research. Virtually the same course of events happened to us: Zelle, $1000, post- payment, “greenfreightline” attempted to con us with the “bad weather necessity of an electric crate” for $1500-$2700. We knew we’d been had. No further communication was achieved. Green freight line and Jefferson Dane pups are sham companies. Please beware.

These two companies: "Jefferson Dane Pups" (http://jeffersondanepupshome.com) and "Green Freight Line" (https://greenfreightline.com) do not exist and they are coordinated to carry out fraud on Great Dane puppy sales. We lost 1,050 dlls and we hope that this report helps so that it does not happen to someone else. It happened as follows: We made the payment through the app called Zelle. Once the payment was made, the seller made up this story that he was sick and would have to delay shipping the puppy. A couple of days later he sent us all the shipping information, but a few hours later we were contacted by the transport company to tell us that the puppy would need an electronic crate due to the weather conditions during the flight and that we had to pay 1,500 dlls to rent the crate. After we refused to make the payment, we were unable to contact either the seller or the shipping company again.
