Type of a scam Online Purchase
I wanted to buy a puppy and saw an ad on Facebook saying that they were selling a yorkie puppy so I contacted them and told me they would send her to my location, they sent me a fake certificate of the puppy fake pictures and videos I trusted them thinking it was all real and sent them part of the money and would give them the rest when the puppy arrived, they promised me they would send her but then received an email supposing it was the airline saying that the puppy needed a special crate for the flight that cost 800 dollars and that it was refundable as soon as the puppy arrived that’s when I noticed it was a scam and told them I wasn’t going to give them more money and they threatened me saying I was the owner and the police would arrest me for abandoning the dog but I didn’t fall for it and told them to give my money back but never answered again, they closed the Facebook page and could never get in contact with them, I have the emails they sent me, the certificate and text messages, I just don’t want anyone else falling for these thieves that use puppies to steal money please help me thank you.
