Scam Description
My parents and I were trying to buy our first puppy, we found one online we thought was really cute. The lady who was selling us the dog seemed pretty nice, the website is https://corgibreedersfamily.com/. hen we received an email from https://uspetshipping.com/. They claimed that the dog that was being shipped from AK needed a thermoregulated carrier ($30 rental, refundable $996 caution fee) so we sent thar , then they said the dog needed to be Covid scanned (refundable for $1800). We want others to be prevented from being scammed like us.
