I was interested in purchasing a Teacup yorkie puppy from this website for $500. I contacted the seller through email . She notified me they are located in baltimore , md and shipping was very simply . We started the purchasing process , i sent her $500 through zelle. The next day she started the process ,when she went to Ship the dog she contacted me and told me she needed $500 more because they wouldn’t ship the dog because of the crate , she told me the dog needed a temperature regulator crate ,I asked her to let me speak to the boss at the shipping agency and she told me no , not until the issue is resolved and the $500 was sent . i told her no just refund me , she told me she would , it was never sent . She stopped replying to me .i texted her again asking for my refund no reply so I texted her acting like i was going to send her the extra $500 and she replied , but when i ask for my refund no reply .

Well I went and I did a walmart to walmart transfer. After I send the money she tell me she was going to take the puppy to a delivery place. Later on that day she call me and told me the place where they do the delivery was closed and the she was going to do it first thing in the morning. I said OK The next day she text me and told me the it was done and someone was going to contact me with the information about the flight for the puppy. After that someone call and tell they was this company name Air Freight and they was going to do the delivery for the puppy and for them to be able to do it I need it to pay $980 for the insurance of the puppy and the money was going to be full refund when puppy arrives to destination and also puppy need it $100 for rent a crate to be able to flight.
