Description

this is a fake rag doll kitten seller. They are pretending to be a reputable company which is based out of New Jersey. They modified the name slightly and are operating out of California so they say but i am not confident in that at all. They want payment through cash apps, zelle, venmo, walmart money cards and all other non-legitamate forms of payment. They request your personal infomration as. I googled their phone number after seeing the forms of payments they want and realizing its not legit. After searching their number the first hit was an already reported BBB scam profile on them. These folks need to be shut down. I was able to realize before sending anything or giving more personal info out but i am sure others have not been so lucky. Please do what you can to publicize this scam and stop them. here is a copy of their email: Hi Again, Thanks for taking out the time to respond to my questions.
