He claimed I was entitled to an award of 50K and could claim my prize once I send him three 500 dollar gift cards, and I did send him those cards. Than I was told I needed a Fed Ex shipping certificate and Fed Ex would deliver a check to me for the 50K. He said this fee was $5,500. I told them in so many words to forget it but a lesson was learned to me and it cost me $1500, ...*** ******
Dollars Lost: $28

Date Reported: November 6, 2023
I was looking for a specific kitten online for my Emotional Support Animal, I had difficulty along the road of my seach with the shelter/nonprofit, where the organizations were asking for paperwork, since they were looking for additional paperwork I went to ask for the paperwork from where I live. Because I was reconmmended to look for a specific cat I decided to go online to search for a breeder, upon checking my facebook to check a friends update, I encountered a recommend page of pictures of a ragdoll kitten in a group. I then decided to explore the group and saw a video of a ragdoll cat with nursing a litter. I then went to look at the comments to see what were the comments and I got to see a few questions in the comment where there were individuals asking for the price and wanting one, and so forward. I tried to look to see the comment with the price where I was looking for the price but I did not find the price. I found the seller commenting saying she will privately message them. I thought about it for a while until I took the action of messaging and asking for the price myself. I got a message from the seller whose name is Juanita Theodosia, in which, she replied to me with the message "Hello, I'm the admin of Ragdoll kittens for adoption and rehoming and I'm messaging you regarding your comment in my group in search of a kitten." I then kindly replied with a short answer and I said, "Hi" and the rest of the conversation went like this:
Me: I found where was your message
Juanita Theodosia: Hello good morning, Thank you for reaching out directly to the admin, what gender are you wanting?
Me: I do not have preference
Juanita Theodosia: I would recommend you male since the're more cuddly and loving, you're fortunate I have a litter that will be ready to go on the 26th of October they will be 9 weeks then, why do you choose this breed?
Me: I been looking for a loving and cuddling cat. I also considered a Korat.
And the conversation went on until I realized it might be a scam with the sales between the seller and the logistics it started to feel like a scam, in which I realized the seller failed to tell me before the confirmation of the shipment before we made any transactions of other extra charges. There is a clear understanding in our conversation that the seller has been doing business with the logistics so seller could have done the transport payment if the money was refundable? But I felt something was off when I was being asked more than I could afford. There are emails, transactions and what was said was conveniently timed when it came for me to make the payments between the seller to the logistics for them to have the money beforehand and still did not receive my pet on October 26, 2022. Also to add, when I could not send any more money they claimed that they paid on my behalf and still asked me for more money.
What I have realized during our conversation, the price of the pet had additional money during transport, I can understand if I am told there would be additional fees to transport the cat at the agency, at least that is more understandable compared to the seller telling, "I will take care of the transport and nourisment" something I was assured of. I find it unfair to have last minute notice of additional charges. I had to pay any additonally apart from what I was told, in which, most of it was not what she was claiming it was, and the emails and the calls that were sent to me were very correlated in seconds, and as well, certain things that did not match up at all with consistency of the emails and what was said. Before I initially made the decision to make the purchase and pay the seller, the seller had previously mentioned that it was a reasonable drive from my home in D.C. to where she was in Midlothian, VA. There was the instant where the seller said she would send me the reservation contract form after I had provided her my email address. The seller asked me how I was going to pay and I answered. I chose Applepay for the reason I was unsure at the time and I decided on Apple pay. I wanted to make sure I was speaking to the person in the picture, so I asked to speak after they were available from work, I was looking to video chat but the seller never contact me after work. I decided I would trust my instinct and keep going as well go with the process, Another instant happened when the seller was telling me to trust the process, after I mentioned I was not going to make anymore payments because I said it was a scam after talking to the animal logistics. After I paid for the deposit $249 dollars, it had already been confirmed that I would get the kitten on October 26, 2023. There was a point in our conversation where I did not received the contract form I was told I would receive via email. I had to ask for the contract form in which I signed and set back to Juanita's gmail. Another instant, I had asked how will the process of transportation goes? The seller answered, she would take care of the transportation and nourishment, she said she would provided me with the tracking number the next day when I was suppose to receive the kitten. There was a failed notice of other additional charges at the time I asked about the price and the process of the shipment as a firs timer to the shipment of a live animal. To reasure myself I asked the seller if I was going to get the kitten on October 26, the seller told me yes. The seller and the logistic kept insiting on me paying and I had to realize for myself that I was being scammed and that this was not the right way to do business. Another part of the conversation, when I tried to send a screenshot of the payments, seller said I was giving her a false statement, in which I was not. So much has transpire in the way things happened, making feel this was definitely a scam, fradulent, and bad business. The emails sent to me were asking a total of $1500 to transport the kitten through the logistic company, in which the seller said she would take care of transportation and nourisment. To note, the seller tried to video call me to tell me I did not pay for the money of a second email that was sent to me. The seller tried video/call me, and the call did not last more than five seconds ringing, in the confusion, I tried even calling the logistics carrier and they did not answer me, instead they chose to email me again asking for another amount to send making their claims, after, they texted me. What suprise me the most at the end of our conversation is that the seller was not an honest person and made me lose trust in the process of the purchase and the process of the entirity of the purchase and mostly transportation. In the end, I never received the kitten on October 26, and they kept trying to guild trip me on abandoning the kitten and block and reported then on Facebook after I did not receive the kitten.
