Total money lost $500
Type of a scam Online Purchase
ON JAN 17, 2016 I WIRED $500.00 TO JOY-HOME POODLES a.k.a. GAVIN’S POODLES. THE $500 WAS FOR THE PUPPY. (THEY SAID THEY HAD A SPECIAL VOUCHER SO THEY COULD WAIVE ALL SHIPPING CHARGE IF I ACTED RIGHT AWAY.)
ON JAN 20, 2016 I RECEIVED A FLIGHT ITINERARY SHOWING THE DOG HAD BEEN SHIPPED. ABOUT TWO HOURS AFTER THE DOG WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE PLANE, I RECEIVED A EMAIL FROM THEM TELLING ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL 1800 FOR FLIGHT INSURANCE.
AT THAT TIME I CALLED THE AIRLINE, TO BE TOLD THERE WAS NO DOG ON THAT FLIGHT.
I HAVE CONFIRMATION THAT THEY RECEIVED THE $500, AND THAT THE DOG WAS MINE. HOWEVER, THEY ARE STILL SELLING THE SAME DOG (STILL 9 WKS OLD)
I HAVE LEARNED SINCE THEN THAT THEY HAVE NO DOGS AT ALL.
