Contacted for available Shiba Inu puppies and had pics, and seemed legit. But asked for zelle payment and couldn’t provide AKC, club affiliation, UBI or any other form of verifying business. Refused to accept credit cards and would not meet in person.
Performed reverse image search for parents and puppies and found these same exact images (with matching names, Lola, Leo, Katsu) have been used again and again online and under various business names. Scam in Omaha, NE.
Buyer beware of ICHIKA SHIBA INU, or other Nebraska Shiba Inu “breeders” as I’ve seen other names as well, Rosenberg Shiba Inu, Sakura Shiba Inu. Appears they just change business name, website and contact info but reuse puppy and parent dog pics.
We were looking to purchase a pet (French Bulldog). Sent an inquiry about the bulldog via the website and received an immediate response via email. It seemed legit natural business correspondence. They had asked for funds via Zelle and we told them we didn't have Zelle, but we could do PayPal. They asked us to send the funds via "Family and friends". That was our first red flag. As a business you don't use family and friends because your customers can't dispute the transaction. Then we sent an email requesting to have a zoom meeting or FaceTime meeting so we can see the dog prior to any sending any payment. We did not hear from them all day which I knew was odd because they had been very responsive. We sent a follow up email and received no response. We have cutoff all communication with them.

We got caught in the great puppy scam!! Found a puppy online, and we are new at this, never did this before, we engaged in conversation with the "breeder" through email, and had pictures sent, a video of the puppy playing, exchanged several emails about our information and the information about the puppy, and signed a purchase protection contract, sent the money through Zelle, received a email when he was being shipped with a tracking information, but that came from a the shipping company, in which I will file another complaint about. When i tried to reach to the "breeder" from that moment on, I have not heard anything back.

This website called Julliete Bernedoodles, https://jullietebernedoodle.com/ pretends to sell puppies. I saw their website and dropped an inquiry about a puppy, soon they contacted me and sent the details of the Puppy. Then when requested they sent me pics and videos of the puppy I intend to buy. Then this man named Ryan contacted me using the phone number 6096293106 then says that his wife named Julliete runs the online Berne doodle business and he assists her with it. Once I felt the information he gave me felt like legit, he asked me to transfer $800.00 using Zelle and asked me to put "Family and Friends" in the memo then when Zelle did not work on my side, I asked him if he accept PayPal. He wanted to confirm with his son and once he said his son can accept PayPal, he asked me to transfer money using PayPal and asked me to put "Family and Friends" in the memo and I transferred him $800.00. The next day he tells me the puppy has been shipped via private plane and his company gets a few free coupons. Then the shipping agency called me to get $1500.00 for life insurance of the puppy, which this man named Mike says is refundable. I paid $1500.00
Few hours later, the same man calls me to tell that the puppy has reached Minneapolis and is waiting for some vaccine verification then they ask me to pay $1000.00 plus $550, by this time it seemed like scam to me so I told them I am not going to make any other payment unless the puppy is being delivered. Then the owner tells me he paid $700 and asks me to pay additional $300, which I denied. I never got the puppy delivered nor I get any refunds. Don't believe this website and these people, this website if FRAUD and SCAM.
