Scam Description

I “purchased” a french bulldog from a “breeder” in texas. Their website is frenchbulldogfamily.net. I paid them $1200 and have the contract. They then shipped the puppy to me using United Express shipper. United express Shipper contacted me by email and text saying they needed $1180 for an electric crate. They guaranteed once the puppy was delivered I would get my money refunded. I spoke with the breeder by text who guaranteed this company was good so I paid that. Once the dog got to Tampa, they then contacted me wanting another $998 to pay for pet insurance which I did not pay. Since then I still have not received the money back or the dog.
