Scam Description

Paid down payment-400-for puppy. Then was asked to pay 200 more for vet visit. Then 130 for shipping (originally planned to pick puppy up but she had an “emergency breeder meeting”). Then the shipping company she chose emailed asking for 350 for a special crate. After continued delays delivering the puppy and being asked for 420 for insurance documents from the shipper, I told both breeder and shipping I wouldn’t be paying that. I made the payments of 400, 200, 150, 350 via Apple Pay and Pay Pal.
