Description

I found Jennifer Freeman of Jennifer’s Adorable Maltese Puppies for adoption. She said she was located in Medford Wi. She showed me pics of 4 different puppies that were available. I chose one and she told me to send $450 in gift cards and when the puppy was delivered I would pay another $250 in cash for a total purchase price of $700. She also told me The puppy would come with papers insurance, vet checked, toys and bed. We arranged a day and time and on that day of delivery a trucking company messaged me that I could purchase the crate for $1500 or rent the crate for $500 refundable in cash upon delivery. The crate also to be paid in gift cards. I refused to pay any more money. The truck company and jennifer sent numerous messages trying to convince me to pay. I asked why I couldn’t just drive to Medford and pick up a puppy but no more were available and the puppy that was to be delivered would have to be.l quarantined for 2 to 3 days and reported that I abandoned it because it was registered to me. I have not paid any more money but still have no puppy. I told her and her deiivery that they were scammers.
