Pet shipping service that basically holds your pet hostage while they take on exorbitant fees. And threatens to say you abandoned dog and will turn over to authorities which will result in additional fine of $1000 if you don’t pay. Won’t let me come pick her up. Won’t give me a

refund. Awful people.

Pretended to be a pet relocation service, kept asking for money for bogus things - crates, ownership papers, border / city fees. Questioned him and demanded to speak to the airport personnel. Threatened to have me arrested for animal abandonment.

I was having a puppy shipped that I just purchased. I received an email from the freight company stating that I needed a thermal electric crate to ship him. There was three tiers to choose from so I chose the cheapest which was $1000 and they stated the money would be refunded when the pup was delivered. I received another email stating that I had waited too long to make the payment and that crate was no longer available. I needed to pay an additional $500 for the next tier of crate. All of this money would be refunded to me when the puppy was delivered. Since it was late in the evening they said the puppy wouldn't ship until the next day which is today and I received an email stating he needed a special vaccine for another $1k. I knew I was being scammed. When I asked for a return of my money that I was no longer needing to have the dog, they threatened to put him in quarantine.

I have all the emails if you'd like me to send them. But please shut this down!!

- Atlanta, GA, USA

I purchased a cat from a breeder. the breeder put me in touch with this company to deliver the cat. Pet Care Express asked for several amounts of money and claimed the payments were on 24 hold with PayPal. I called PayPal and PayPal said payment went through. I told Pet Care Express and they asked me for more money to send cat. I never received cat.

I purchased a bearded dragon from a tracy jean eberle from a dragon rehoming page on facebook. We conversed through messenger and i paid her with cash app $250. Then i paid $100 for shipping. She told me the shipper would be in contact with me to verify everything. A little while later the shipper, global logistics email me saying i needed to either buy or rent an air conditioned enclosure. I could rent for $300 which they said was refundable upon delivery. I was not hapoy about the additional charge and received no refund when i told tracy i wasnt sending any more money and want my money back. I have not been refunded yet and global logistics wants to charge me $300 cancellation fee.

Someone stole my identity on a Cane Corso FB page when I was selling my puppies. He or she not only used pictures of my puppies but also created several different FB pages. Apparently they then started using that fake FB account to “sell” Cane Corso puppies and bearded dragons.
I have spoken to the police in Indiana (where one of the scams happened) and to my local police. There’s nothing they can do.
I’ve also posted on my personal and several Cane Corso FB pages what happened and to be aware.
I’m sorry if this has happened to anyone. But it is not ME. It is someone acting as me and scamming people out of money.
My advice would be to NEVER send money through any app.
When I was selling my puppies my advertisement said I didn’t accept any form of payment accept cash and did not take any deposits. Cash upon pickup of puppy. I also did not ship.

My daughter supposedly bought a puppy from a breeder via Facebook. He was going to meet her than has a family emergency and went to Kentucky. He said he would send the puppy. We received tracking info flight was slotted from 11am departure then around 12:30 she received and email stating there was a registration fee required for the puppy. Unfortunately my daughter paid it. Then around 2:20 we received an email and call stating another $785 was needed for a special crate then shortly after that the amount was upped to $1000 now the puppy needed special shots. She refused to pay so then they email her stating she would be arrested for animal abandonment.

This is a fraudulent cargo company working with other scammers. Promising to ship live cargo, but then always needs more and more money because something wasn't done correctly. In my case 1st - the insurance wasn't paid, then the flight was missed so the was a fee to care for the cat, then the kennel provided was not air worthy - then the kitten was missing the rabies shot. They insist that once the kitten is delivered all the funds will be refunded...but there is never a shipment.

They say that they only work with cash and kept insisting that payment be made with Crypto or gift cards so that they can process the shipment. There is another issue that requires more money to resolve. They also will not provide proof they have the animal even after requesting proof several times.

- Fort Belvoir, VA, USA

My family and I are have been looking for a puppy. My wife found a website for labors for breeder and they had a puppy she liked so she paid $700 for it through cash app with the understanding that they would arrange shipment of the puppy the following day. The following day they sent information from the shipping company and the shipping company was asking for a refundable deposit of $950. At that point we had figured out it was a scam. My wife called the number listed that did not match the area code of the location the shipment company was supposedly located. The seller’s name on cash app nanesha case. The cash app username was naneshananesha. The breeder site was gossett labradors. The shipping company they claimed was J Watson fastcloud shippers. The number on the email that my wife called was 580-448-4848

- Madison, TN, USA

I received a call from a guy James Watts (434) 632-0156 saying he was the wife or Marrie Nieto. He was at a new agency who needed me to contact them. They called me and told me I need to pay more money for a better travel crate for a puppy up to $2050 from phone number 507-301-6814. I was contacted by Instagram English cocker spaniels for sale asking why I wouldn't want a bigger crate for a puppy. I hope you can shut down these scammers, they won't quit contacting me.

I ordered a puppy from FB from English Cocker Spaniel Puppies for Sale. I paid for the transfer papers and vet heath check $200. Shipping was $100 then Roll Stone Movers contacted me saying the crate wasn't safe for travel and I could buy for $900 or rent $200. The total was $350 from the shippers told me to pay the sender. I agreed to $550 so we were good. Now they start to threaten me and use inappropriate language telling me that if I do not pay $800 the puppy goes to quarantine and then I will pay 8,000-20,000 in fines because of pandemic rules. I sent them the dog shipping laws from Virginia and Tennessee, and they are not responding. The sender tells me she picked up the puppy after it spent all day and all night at the shipping place and that her husband is personally delivering the puppy to me. I have reported to my bank already. Unfortunately, they know my address, email and phone numbers. I have already had someone trying to hack my PayPal account yesterday when this was happening, and I've received several spam calls from Virgina yesterday. I save screenshots of everything for further investigation for my bank or other places that might need it.

I buy a puppie and the seller send the puppie with PetCarrier ShippingAgency first the carrier agency ask me to pay for ??????'?? ???????????????????? ?????????????????? ?????? that money was ???????????????????? pay them the they ask me to pay ???????????????????? ???????? ?????????????? ?????? and then they ask me for more money they were too weak for delivery, seems like their first time going through this trip and due to late payment yesterday.

So we gave them 2 injections that cost $400 each for a total of $800. So, we are waiting for the money, which is also refundable, before proceeding.

It should be noted that we have all your refunds on record which are $600 + $500 + $800 then later they told me Hello, we are sorry to inform you that we lost your pet, he was too weak to proceed with the delivery, he just died and we decided In doing so, you will need to purchase a compensation form that sets forth the agreement between us and you agree to $10,000 from us in compensation. The form costs $2,000, which will include signatories from our firm's attorneys and you, accepting the $10,000 award from us.

I tell them I dont have any money left that I just want my money back they answer back anymore

- Zion, IL, USA

This is the shipping agency that the breeder used to supposedly ship my puppy to me. According to the agency they had to change the crate and it cost $1000 but it is refundable upon the delivery of my puppy but my puppy never got delivered

Trying to buy a pet the pet owner said he could ship for $60 so I paid it. Then the shipping company contacted me saying they needed pet insurance of $640 or they couldn't finish the delivery. Wanted it done by cash app but my bank wouldn't let it be so they wanted me to buy a gift card for the amount and send pictures. Said pet would arrive 30 minutes after processing then 2 hours late said I had to pay a crate fee of $800. I let them know I did not have it ans since they was going to be no delivery I wanted a refund. Shipping company then said sorry the only way to get a refund is in cash and to get that back I had to pay for the crate fee. This started as an email then translated to text when I told them I didn't receive the email. The name they wanted me to send the money to was Barabra Woods @Bwoods941 on venmo and the number they were texting me through is 508-343-8086. I also asked for the deposit of $360 on the pet back as there was going to be no delivery. The response I got from buyer was he was going to get the pet and refund everything back. Pet owner let me knew that the shipping company wanted a $250 cancelation fee and owner didn't not have it. The pet owners name is Thomson Jones and he was found on Facebook getting rid of cats I inquired saw other buyers pic and the the option avaliable to buy. These 2 companies or individuals are working together to scam people out of money for a good that we wanted.
