Total money lost $700
Type of a scam Online Purchase
. I was looking online to purchase an English Bulldog Puppy. I came across this website (https://keemenglishbulldoghome.com/) which seemed to be official. I contacted the “seller” and paid the amount of $700 from my bank with zelle they game me the information of [email protected] to send the money too. After a while I felt a little off about everything so I contacted the same email asking about the same puppy, which I had just bought and asked if it was still available for purchase.
They contacted me back off my boyfriends email and said the puppy was still available for purchase. But how is that if I had just purchased this puppy? I called the number that was provided and I am man with an accent answer but didn’t sound of a Texas accent. I spoke with the man and he said it was all a misunderstanding and that the pup will be shipped tomorrow morning. The next morning (today july 1,2020) I emailed them saying if they shipped the puppy. They said they “registering” the puppy and the cargo company will contact me shortly. Soon after I received an email from the cargo company called Premier Pet Shippers ( https://premierpetshippers.com/contact/ ) in that email I got a tracking number to track the shipment.
I track the shipment it said the dog will be in @ 7pm Phoenix time. I searched up the cargo companies name through google and found people where being scammed by this “company” so then I went on the keem English bulldog website copied an image off the site and put the image into google and found that the same picture of my pup was on three different websites for the same price of $700. These websites were (https://englishbulldoghaven.com/available-english-bulldog-puppies-for-sale/ https://keemenglishbulldoghome.com/puppies-for-sale/ https://www.romanoengbulls.com/english-bulldog-puppies/ ) my hopes of bringing a new puppy home was crushed and everything seemed so real!
I even sign a purchase of sells agreement which stated there will be a refund and if not it could be used in court! But I’m hoping these people will be brought to justice. I know I won’t get my $700 back but I hope no else falls in the same trap I did. Thank you.
