1/24/23 I receive a text message from a Richard R Tune from Global Pet delivery service saying they had our puppy to be delivered to us but the puppy had been held on board due to weather conditions and several checks in Wyoming the puppy could not proceed to us because the crate she was brought in was rejected and they wanted us to purchase a heat/air conditioned crate for anywhere from 300 to 1100. we said no way as that was never discussed; we {assumed} they would be driving here themselves as nothing was ever discussed about a delivery service. By this time we were very confident this was a scam. I sent a text to the number I had and indicated we would not continue with this charade. A male with an accent then called me. When I heard his voice and accent I asked who he was. He said Jessica's husband. I countered by saying you are not who I talked to the other day and they were her husband. He said oh probably my son. I said no....there was no accent, etc; They said if we were no longer interested to let them know and they asked how to refund our money. I indicated PayPall but by the time I responded to him they had removed the name Jessica Leadbetter from Facebook and we were unable to contact them. Yes we are out of $100 and no one wants to lose money, but that is not the reason for this report...there are these people put there who are preying on us all and we need to be smart about this.

Dear Elizabeth,
I hope this email finds you well! I'm writing with respect to your interest in our poodle puppies. Our aim from the start has been and still is to breed soundness and good temperaments into our dogs while making families happy by giving them the opportunities to welcome our adorable, healthy, smart and well trained puppies with a price range of $500 - $1500. We’re located at S 23 St. Kansas City, KS 66102; we’re open for pickups but will ship in case you can't pickup in person.
Kindly get back to us with the following information so we will know how to proceed;
1. Are you a breeder?
2. Have you been keeping puppies or any other pet?
3. Do you have kids at home?
4. Who will be the primary caretaker of the dog?
Hoping to hear from you... Thanks in anticipation!

All of our communication was via email. I continued to receive emails confirming that the puppy would arrive this coming Saturday, and that I would receive a receipt within 5 minutes of my electronic payment. I was told to send money for the puppy and an extra fee for shipping. Knowing some other people whose puppies arrived via airplane, this didn’t seem like a red flag. The scammer pushed me a little bit to make the payment via Zelle and gave me an email address that seemed legit, and so I sent my payment-$600 for the puppy and $200 for air fare! As an aside, I made this payment under the mistaken belief that Chase protected all customers’ transactions, but have learned that Chase essentially treats Zelle transactions like cash. Once I sent the money, I received an email thanking me with a promise to send me all of my pending documents right away, and another promise to ship the puppy this coming Saturday. That was my final communication. stopped. I subsequently discovered that this company is a known scammer, and that this follows a known pattern for scammers who prey upon dog lovers. Not only am I out a lot of money, but I am afraid because I filled out their initial form to request information, which included my complete address and phone number.
This company used several different email addresses:
[email protected]
poodlepupsforsale.com, [email protected], which they used for the zelle transaction.
Subsequently we looked up the company on whois, which showed the following information:
Registrant Name: Wils Anderson

Postal Code: 00237

I paid for a puppy via Zelle which i never received. When trying to contact them the website was no longer available.
They emailed this info but when reaching out both by email and text the owner jennifer stopped responding after simple questions about fee description and proof of veterinary work/paperwork was requested. I have the rest of the email thread with payment requests but didn’t have the option to upload more than one photo
Offered a dog be sold and shipped. Paid for the dog. Then requested that the shipping container wasn’t suitable halfway thru transit and requested more money. Said all money would be refunded except $50 after payment.
When I had more questions, he was vague and kept insisting on a deposit sent. I said we could drive up to see the kittens with payment in hand. When I texted to say we were on our way, to the address provided— there was no response and then phone number I had been communicating with was suddenly “disconnected/no longer in service”.
Haven’t heard back from seller or third party courier.
