Description

Selected a puppy from rrottweiler world website and sent text message to dog breeder/seller (James Freeman @ 1.804.650.4145). The breeder and I communicated via text message and agreed upon a price of $700.oo for the puppy with an additional fee of $150.00 to cover shipping and crate for a total of $850.00. The breeder sent sales contract, and I paid $850.00 as requested by the seller; the money sent via bank wire to Name: Francisco Loza, Routing Number: 101019644, Account Number: 21554743897, Bank Name: Lead Bank, Bank Address: 1801 Main St., Kansas City, MO 64108. The next day I received a text message and email from Secure Pet Transportation @ 557.203.7594 requiring an additional $1,000.00 to transport/ship the dog, requiring cash payment. I was given instructions and sent $500.00 via Zelle to Torionne Fambro @ 470.799.3641. I was then given instructions from Pet Secure Transport and sent $500 via Apple Cash to 773.394.1080. Once that payment was received Secure Pet Transport then required me to send an additional $500.00 via Apple Cash to 1.872.361.8972. That payment would not transmit, i.e., the account could not accept Apple Cash and I was instructed to send the $500.00 payment via a Walmart Card to 1.872.367.8972. I was next contacted via phone call and text from person saying their name was James Morgan (Hollywood, FL @ 754.837.5408 / [email protected]) saying I was required to send $500.00 more in Apple Cash/Pay to get the dog transported. I requested a refund of money sent in accordance with the sales contract. No money has been returned and there isn’t a dog.
