The next day we drove to pick up the puppy but the scammer was demanding full payment. We said we'd pay when we saw the puppy and after getting to the address provided, there was no one there. I messaged the scammer and he said because we refused to pay in full we had to wait an hour and then he'd be there. But if we paid if full he'd be there in 20 min. I asked to video chat with him and the puppy but his phone would accidentally hang up. We called the police and animal control, both of which said it's a civil manner but we probably got scammed.
Red Flags I should have noticed - his name was Thomas Harry and his wife's name was Laura Galloway. Neither persons Facebook family photo was the same people (the wife wasn't the same, the husband wasn't the same, etc.). He did send me multiple photos and videos of the dog but refused to video chat. When I did speak to him on the phone his voice/accent didn't match his Facebook page (his Facebook page was a Caucasian male, he spoke with a deep Indian accent. His name on Facebook is Thomas Harry but his PayPal account is @TonyWatts23. His wife Laura blocked us from their pug Facebook page.
After the FB hack, they attempted to get into an electronic wallet (Gemini) by calling me, asking if I attempted to change my password. When I hung up because I wouldn't enter in the code they texted me, they called me every minute for about 15/20 min. They called from 3 different numbers. I blocked all of them. The attempt on Gemini was a day after they hacked my FB account.
Payment was through PayPal,Friends and Family to Jazmine Jenkins Jazzy Jaz1600
I read the terms of the agreement before paying $**** for shipping the card to me, which it said I won. But it was confusing because it talked about subscriptions and other things. It didn't really show anything of what the ad was talking about. So I called the company with the number it gave me and he made it very clear that $**** was only for a chance to win the card or a gadgets. And that it was actually a subscription. I remembered that on the terms it said something about after 7 days they will charge your account $***. So I told the man I wanted it canceled immediately.
I also told them that what the company was doing was fraudulent because anybody can set up a chance to win just pay me a little bit of money. I could even do that and not give anything away and it would be a total scam! I told him that what the company was doing was a scam.
So I ordered two pallets.
I waited for about a month and a half. Then, I looked up all the delivery info I could find on it and it stated that it had already been delivered. When I looked at where it has been delivered, it wasn't even our house. It was at a house about a mile away. I went to that house and asked if any pallets had been delivered there. They said, no.
I went through several emails back and forth with the company to no avail. They refused to give a refund saying that it has been delivered. Three times, I was told to go to the local post office to check. I did twice. However, the local post office, the last time, said that they don't deliver pallets. And when I showed them the information that I had showing the companies info and where it showed it was delivered to, they said that it looked fraudulent. They don't deal with pallets.
Factor-Stone refused to make it right. They didn't even offer a small percentage refund.
My mom ended up buying from a pallet place for Christmas, also, through Facebook.
She didn't receive her order, either. I felt bad, because had I known she was going to do that, I would've told her not to. But, she wanted to give her grandchildren nice gifts for Christmas. She knew they'd all like electronics.
Truly disappointed.
The admin of the group “Adele Dorine” messaged me said she had 3 females available. Sent me pictures of the puppies. I picked the one I was interested in, and she said it would be $700 with a $350 deposit. Which was normal when buying out of the city you live in to reserve a pup. I told her I could come up next day to get puppy and pay remain balance.
She messaged me a little while later stating extra costs occurred and wanted another $200. But would go towards the cost of the puppy no extra in final cost of the agreed upon $700.
I paid her through zelle. And the email which included a name that didn’t match hers. I started questioning, wanting FaceTime to see puppy and talk with her about puppy and excuses were made, she finally got mad when I wouldn’t send her the remaining balance before seeing/picking up puppy. She accused ME of being untrustworthy and she’s not selling to anyone untrustworthy. Said she would refund $ when pup was sold, and then immediately blocked me on messenger and on the basset group.
Needless to say I will never see that $550 again, and lesson learned frauds everywhere even in what you might think is an innocent group. Beware I’m sure she will use a different name, different groups and possibly a different address.
