Description

Facebook site for adopting great danes. She was a breeder selling puppies. After speaking with her through Facebook messenger answering and asking questions she wanted $400 deposit. I asked to send bank check but refused only accepting $ immediately. She then said she would accept $200. Sent through paypal and then blocked me so i can't reach her. She gave references that I checked. After money was sent none of her references responded to my texting telling them i am trying to reach and have been blocked. The Facebook page is still there and she is scamming others.
