Total money lost $690
Type of a scam Online Purchase
Found a website selling English Bulldog puppies for $500 that advertised they could arrange transportation anywhere in the US. Contacted seller via email and picked a puppy from pictures on the website. Seller insisted on a money transfer and suggested using Wal-Mart’s money gram for payment of thr puppy plus an additional $190 to cover the transportation costs. Sent the money and received a followup call and email from a company named Logistics Pets Transportatio stating we needed to wire a payment of $920 to cover flight insurance and national health certificates for the puppy. Demanded payment immediately or pet would not be delivered. Based on the foreign accents of the person calling us and the rambling non professional email, we knew this was a scam and did not pursue further. Contacted the dog breeder that we wanted our money returned but have not received it. Can no longer get responses on the phone numbers given or emails given.
