paramountbeaglepups.com: Suspicious sounding email from [email protected] to my inquiry which begins: "Hello, thanks for your interest in my puppies they using their adult doggy door and keeping their nursery clean". It goes on and asks for my occupation, whether I’m a breeder, whether I have kids, and whether I "used to this breed".

Type of a scam COVID-19
I was wanting to purchase a puppy for my son amid the Covid-19 Pandemic and filled out an online request after viewing several puppies on the website. I was later contacted via email and asked a series of questions then was told I would receive a contract to sign and return them I would need to make a payment via Zelle for $700 that covers the cost of the puppy and transportation. The next day I received a text for a company claiming to be Global Air County saying I had to purchase a refundable insurance in order for the to ship the puppy that would be given to me upon delivery. Only cash payments again.

TO WHOM IT’S MAY CONCERN
Dear Valued Client,
Accept greetings from Pet Control Department of the U.S Branch.
We wish to inform you that your puppy is presently under our detention. We have done all check up and the puppy is ready now for Flight. But we are facing a little problem, the Insurance and Quarantine service center for the City International Airport service which is the first Port of check-out requires an insurance certification proceeding the delivery of your puppy.
The said insurance fee is re-fundable upon safe arrival of this puppy at your doorstep.
If the insurance certificate is not provided within 12hours, this puppy will be placed on Quarantine for the next Two (2) months, and the parties related to this puppy will be claimed at the court of Law for pet abuse.
This insurance fee goes along side to enable us to get your pet an Insurance Certificates and hiring of a crate for your puppy to be delivered to you including transfer of ownership papers on your names. All you need to understand is that Pet transport Department have got nothing with pet insurance services.We only help to organize the shipment/ delivery of your puppy through our pet delivery aircrafts and Vans to your door step. we wish to enlighten you about the following points concerning the transportation of animals with U.S;
1A. All animals have a life and integrity and therefore are been regarded as humans in their own domain.
2A. All animals are to be transported with a high degree of caution and safety.
3A. All animals must be transported by an animal travel agency which is registered with the U.S Aviation Commission/ U.S Financial Bureau.
4A. All animals are supposed to have a Life Insurance Certificate before they can travel without any problem aboard.
5A. The cost of the life insurance paid for each animal that is been transported should reflect the integrity of the animal in question.
6A. All insurance fees paid during the flight and delivery of an animal must be Fully Refunded in cash and in total after delivery of the animal.
7A. The insurance must be Refunded to the person who paid the insurance fee and it MUST be refunded in total.
Why we ask for a Life Insurance Certificate:
1B. It shows that the owner of the animal is fully concerned about the life of the animal.
2B. It gives its owner the legal power to take the pet delivery agency to court in case of problems during the delivery process.
3B. We stand behind all pet owners in case of problems with the animal delivery agency during the delivery process.
4B. The life insurance fee is to cover for the caring of the animal in case of animal abandonment for 3 months before the animal it is been quarantined.
Note :
To this effect, we wish to inform you that this puppy in question does not have an Insurance certificate, which in this case must be paid and acquired before it can leave our premises for any delivery.
Insurance Payment Strategy:
The insurance fee to be paid per animal must be equivalent to the cost price of the animal in question and this was decided by the U.S Aviation Commission / U.S Financial Bureau.Looking at clause 5A above, it shows that the insurance cost to be paid as required by the U.S Aviation Commission is 1390$ for this puppy.
But this system brought to many complaints from pet owners and beyond and so the two mother committees sat and decided to adopt the Full refund Insurance Scheme method of insurance payments. This system requires that the owner of the animals pays the total amount of the insurance fee and the total amount most be Refunded in cash including the transfer charges, upon safe arrival of this puppy at his or her respective destination.
To this effect, you are required to pay a total sum of 1390$ .The money will be Refunded at the time of delivery by the delivery agents who will bring this puppy to you. The refund will be made in cash at time of delivery and it will have to be refunded in total as stated in clause 7A of the U.S Aviation Commission / Financial Bureau laws.
We also wish to inform you that this puppy will remain here until the refundable insurance fee is paid before this puppy can depart from our detention. There is no compromise on this issue. We request and advice you treat this issue with a high degree of discretion and urgency.

My family was looking for another dog to add to our family and there isn’t any around here, so we went online. This website seemed legit and the contact person seemed knowledgeable and ready to help. I received a bill of sale as well prior to money sent. Then money had to be sent via Zelle or monogram. Zelle had a limit, so I did PayPal. They account they wanted it sent to was a different name then listed on the purchase agreement. Then they refunded the money back to PayPal and listed another account name. When I called the number given, a man answered and at first didn’t know what I was talking about, then stated I didn’t pay, but that I could pay using moneygram. That’s when I knew for sure.
