Description

I was scammed by chihuahuagarden.com on August 23, 2023. I supposed to purchase a chihuahua puppy but I didn't receive a puppy. I paid $820 to Richard Clem (breeder), I used Zelle to send my payment for the puppy (Zelle to Arthur Young - [email protected] - REF# PP0RHR264V - I LOVE SEAN). I communicate with him thru text messages at (915) 339-3407 and email: [email protected]. I paid $1790 to Jack Reck (shipper of Continental Pet Relocation Delivery Service) for the Air Conditioned Pet Travel Crates Rental (thru Zelle to Delana G - (929) 624-7386 - REF# RP0RHS36V5). I communicate with him thru phone (915) 248-0451 and email: [email protected]. He said that it is 95% refundable upon the arrival of the puppy at home. Later, Jack Reck informed me that the puppy is put on hold because the pet needs insurance at Saint Louis International Airport. I paid $1500 to Jack Reck (shipper of Continental Pet Relocation Delivery Service) for the Refundable Pets Life Insurance Fee ($700 - thru Zelle to Delana G - (929) 624-7386 - REF# RP0RHSS2F2 and $800 - Apple Pay to +19177497492379 REF# 8c0740758764). He said that it is 95% refundable upon the arrival of the puppy at home. It's too late for me that my relatives and friends told me that chihuahuagarden.com is a SCAM and it is included in the list of Pet Scams at the websites. Again after 8 hours, Jack Reck informed me that the puppy is put on hold again because the pet needs Vaccination and Rabies Shot at Saint Louis International Airport. I need to send $1300 and It is refundable also upon the arrival of the pet. I didn't send a money anymore because I learned that it is a SCAM. I tried to call him for the refund of the money that I send but he refused to give my money back. According to him that the puppy is already at Saint Louis International Airport. He said also that if I don't send a payment, FBI will arrest me for the abandonment of a puppy at the airport. I lost for the total of $820 + $1790 + $1500 = $4110. This is a big lesson for me. As of now, many online websites are fraud. I need to be careful next time especially when I send the money. I tried to contact my bank, ***** ***** to dispute or reverse my payments thru Zelle and Apple Pay. Since those apps are considered as cash payment, they can't reverse my payments and the money that I send to them are totally lost. Sadly, the address of the breeder, Richard Clem: 5228 Saxon Drive, El Paso, Texas belongs to the real owner, ******* ******. The address of Continental Pet Relocation Delivery Service is 3324 Durazno Avenue, El Paso, Texas 79905 belongs to ******** ********* *** ****** **. I would like to request for your help. My bank told me that the payment transactions that I did will be reversed if I have a police report and FBI reports. I hope that you can help me to arrest the people who are the victims of chihuahuagarden.com.
