This is a fake breeder - using stolen pictures of puppies from a legitimate breeder located in Australia. Called northernlonghaireddachshunds.

They try to follow normal procedures as breeders.

Ask generic questions and mentioned to send money then pick a date to drop or pick up the dog.

Stopped messaging when asked for more pictures and showed the puppy we wanted was shown already adopted in one of their fake stolen stories.

I ordered a racoon from this website "Racoon Haven". They charged me $300 for the racoon, then they “shipped” it out.

Half way through the flight, they said they needed an additional $400 because the racoon needed a thermal controlled crate or something, and that I would get a full refund once my racoon got to me. I paid them $200 and the lady shipping it to me was suppose to pay the other $200. I spent $500 total.

I purchased a dog from the website, but the puppy was never delivered. After I completed the payment of $1,500, the seller stopped all communication with me. I have not received the puppy or a refund.

There is a Facebook page called Cats adoption foundation. These people who were falsely representing them, I think, scammed us for over $500. They were very pressuring and when only accept money from Zelle or an institution that had no recourse they won’t take a credit card and then they tell you the cat is ready to ship but the airline needs a $600.99 crate . They get their money, but you don’t get a kitten. The couples name on the the adoption papers, which look appropriate, are Michael and TORRE Barnes. Their number is 917-765-9885

My wife and I was looking for a Ragdoll cat. We came across this website that is selling them for $850 with flying to a major airport. We processed the money through paypal. We then started looking more into the company and seen they are not a real company. They have an address that is ***** ***** *** ******* ******** ** with a phone number 616-541-6501. The address is to some home and the phone number is to some golf cart business. I have filed a complaint with Paypal, but this site is still up taking money. They never deliver or respond.

Wanted to purchase a puppy from this site, agreed upon $410 including delivery. I paid the money then was told delivery company would get in touch with me. Reliant way carrier notified me I needed to send them $399 for vet check and vaccines in order to transport puppy, I did. Then was told I need a special crate for transport that was $499 but would be refunded.. I sent money. Next I was told I needed insurance for said puppy ( a state requirement) in order for them to transport, I sent the $999.00 that would also be refunded. They kept asking for more but not delivering the puppy. I have not received one cent in refunds and I have not received the dog.

I was looking for a breed munchkin kitten. I was searching on Google and came across the happy Munchkin family. They scammed me and they’re still on line to scam other people I paid 750 for the kitten and 1500 for Special cage they were gonna reimburse me when the kitten got to me. But they just took my money. I didn’t get anything. I did it on my US Bank account cash electronic payment. It took an emotional toll on me.

Jay Bennett seller of bulldogs agreed to sell a puppy ( Daisy) to me for $800.

Seller provided a signed contract agreeing to provide such dog. Seller pressured me to purchase dog . After I sent the 800 the seller would not reply to my texts or emails. This is a scam. Seller used stock photos on site, dogs do not exist.

In purchasing a puppy from Vibrant Goldendoodles, I paid the breeder $1000 for the puppy which included the transport. The transport agency then said I needed an air conditioned crate $999, another message said I needed insurance $1000 then another said the puppy needed vaccinations, this time $999.99, which I didn’t send. They threatened to report me to authorities for pet abandonment. I stopped all communications

I did a transaction with Kathy Freeman, who used the names Diannette Colon, Shelly (573-569-9709 and Destiny Morgan, to buy a Persian Cat. [email protected], [email protected]. She told me money I spent for insurance is a refundable one and not required for every state but was required by Florida. Swift Drop Logistics supposedly was going send the kitty to me with a nanny, Shelly but no one could give me anything in writing that the insurance amount I paid or the money to rent an upgraded carrier would be refunded to me. I asked several times to have my money refunded but it was never refunded. Then they wanted me to open an account with bank called Royal Finas Group and my money would be refunded to me there. I paid $1,300.99 to them and $7,298 was deposited in that account and there doesn't seem to be a way for me to get any of the money out.

Facebook ad for puppies. Person sent contract wanted to pay deposit. Sent email that Facebook was blocked and needed to contact via text. Claimed family emergency and would have to ship the dog. Then shippers tried to pay for the crate and insurance. $450 for the pet and $410 for shipping.

- Manhattan, IL, USA • May 14, 2025

Was scammed by “dog breeders”. Was supposed to deliver me a puppy that i never received. Was not supposed to pay any money upfront but was asked to send $100 for a crate and then another $200 from the shipping company because the crate didn’t fit their standards. Watch out for these puppy scammers!
