Type of a scam Online Purchase
We have been looking for a puppy. We found this web site showing 5 10-11 week old puppies for sale. I filled out the contact page and they replied with an e-mail describing the puppies and saying they are trying to find good homes for them – no charge, just shipping fee of $500. The scammer’s name on their e-mail is Kevin Saez. They said they were in Spokane – we live about a 3 hour drive from there. I told them we would like to come pick up our puppy. They said they wanted to ship it because of the Covid-19. I explained my husband and I had both had the virus, so we would not be contagious. They still went back to having it shipped by air. I went on the internet to see how much air transportation is and found a statement saying all air transportation of pets was suspended and no date to start up again had been released. I sent them an e-mail to that effect and told them I would give nobody any money until I had puppy in my hands. I haven’t heard back. I have attached a copy of our whole e-mail conversation. Please put these people behind bars. It is apparent it is a scam.
