Scam Description
The website Looks legit as one can. Clear terms, $150 shipping within US and Canada etc…. Picked a dog, and added to the cart. Then got a call and text about payment and who to send it to. Deposit 1/2 price plus $150 shipping. Ok DONE. next followed by an email from the shipping company stating a better crate was needed for shipping. Keep in mind I got a tracking number and details of my puppy. She is only 1.4 pounds. The shipping company website looks legit, emails etc.. But the phone number didn’t work. (https://glowepressglob.com) Cost of better crate $420. All upon delivery 95% refundable, if I decide not to keep it. Ok Done. Pd a Core y Sn ead (email georgetR785@gmx.com) Next email again from shipping wanting Insurance on the puppy to the tune of 789.99.
Well I contacted my seller( Not really sure of his name, the money went to a Darrek M errill email rolandbourd623@gmx.com) So I Simply told him, They want more money! If you trust these guys and its refundable you pay it. But I am not paying another dime thru Zelle until the dog is at my door. Well needless to say I am out $920 and no little puppy. PLEASE BEWARE!
