Type of a scam Phishing
Intially contacted via email due to listings of corgi pups, 650 for Males, 700 for females with shipping included-I am looking for one for my wife for Christmas. Proceeded with caution as I’ve researched scams extensively and knew better than to go in gung-ho.
In the beginning I only asked about shipping method and payment types they accepted, somebody who goes by "Daniel" replied asking only what puppy I was interested in, as I gave only my email. I responded and asked again, clarifying it was for the sake of caution.
He finally replied after a few emails that they would use SkyCargo USA. I couldn’t find evidence they shipped animals but gave him the benefit of the doubt. In his next email he replied that I seemed very insistent upon the money side and "that doesn’t really matter", further evading my questions, and proceeded to ask a series of questions modeled after many of the ones I’ve seen here, including odd capitalization and many ellipses after the questions.
I decided to do a quick reverse Google image search and it quickly showed that the photos seemed to be attatched to entirely different dogs altogether! After a while i pressed on only to gather evidence to report. Please avoid and don’t waste your time with them.
