Joy corgi puppies attempted to get me to pay for a puppy that never existed. Wanted to find a new family companion after my beloved corgi died suddenly 3 years ago, I thought I did enough research finding the right puppy. I first saw the ad of Facebook. I messaged them asking for a website to look at the available puppies. Given the website, I looked it over and saw some reviews, I asked for more reviews, which they provided, along with references. I was excited to believe I had found the puppy I was looking for. They sent me pictures and more information via text message. The problem came when I did some research about scams, due to me having extreme anxiety, I dug hard. They passed all my initial tests, making me believe they were legit. Convenienced already, I trusted my gut that this wasn’t all what it seemed to be, I asked for a current picture of the puppy with a piece of paper with my name, date, and time on it. The excuses and "how dare u distrust us" accusations started to flow. Long story short, I never got the picture proving they actually had the puppy they were claiming to sell me. Luckily I trusted myself BEFORE sending any money!
