Scam Description
I was looking for a chow puppy. I found this site on the internet Ann Merle Chow Mein. I sent an email. They wanted $650 for the puppy. I received a response. They wanted $275.30 for shipping for the puppy to be shipped to my which is not in Arizona. I was told the puppy would come with a nanny. I paid them $926.
I was sent a contract to sign. Read and signed the contract and sent it back to the seller. I recieved the invoice for the shipping where showed $275.30 was paid for shipping. They told me the delivery company would be contacting. The delivery company name was Continental Pet Relocation County. https://continentalpetrelocationcounty.com/ – website
info@continentalpetrelocationcounty.com – email
The delivery company want me to pay either $1380, $1470 or $ 1530 for a thermal crate. The seller never told me anything about paying extra when the puppy was suppose to come with a nanny. I spoke with the delivery person the phone twice but couldn’t understand what they were saying. Their phone was breaking up. Itold the delivery man that I requested the my money back from the seller. I did send an email and call the seller. I left a voicemail requesting my money back. I didn’t receive any calls back or and email. I really thought this was a legit company. Because I received pictures and videos of the puppy.
