I found a border collie on line from CHARIOT BORDER COLLIES in Cape Coral, Florida. The website said they are a “Certified AKC Border Collie Puppies Breeders.” (Another lie.) Note, the pictures of the puppies for sale never changes. The same puppies are always for sale. I paid ALEX BOOKER, from CHARIOT BORDER COLLIES, for the puppy, Mari, and the shipping, which was reasonable. I am not sure how much Alex fits into the scam. I paid her for a couple items that she was going to pay the shipper for and she said she did not receive the money. She supposedly took the puppy to STERLING PET SHUTTLE to be shipped to us in Colorado. There is no address on the shipper’s website though it looks very nice and professional. The shipper prefers to communicate only by text. First STERLING PET SHUTTLE wanted money for insurance ($1,800), then money for a thermo crate ($500), money a City of Denver permit ($1,500), and then money for a stamp for the crate ($200). Each one of these fees is “refundable.” “JAKE” called us many times trying to get more money out of us for more insurance ($500). We said, “Not a dime more!” One morning he called at 4 A.M. still wanting the $500 for more insurance. So now we are out a lot of money and NO puppy. I did apply for all the refunds that were promised us through Pro Purse & Pro Wallet, but that is a big joke. I applied at Pro Wallet and they put $25,000 in my account. What kind of scam is that? Nobody just gives out $25,000! I requested my refund be by Zelle or a bank cashier’s check from the shipper. “Blake” wanted to charge us a processing fee of $500 to return my refundable fees. I said just take it off what you owe me. The shipper said they can’t do that….they want another $500! Just a word of advice…DO NOT GET SUCKED IT TO THESE SCAMS!
Mind you only issue I had was not realizing the funds in my account were a little lower than the $1,000. I got all that taken care of then asked about the call and thats when I became a problem. I was trying to avoid heartbroken kids but that still happened. However, I'm not out $500 to "reserve" the dog.
I have copies of all my text messages and all of that I even got a copy of the papers from AKC showing my purchase agreement
i said i would come to get puppy they said it would be too stressful for puppy and they will refer me to local breeder in WI
they said they could arrange shipping of the puppy for $1050. i said no as i want to drive to get the puppy. I have been waiting for local breeder information....but it's not coming.
Upon the delivery they asked for more $ for a cooled carrier and once I was unable to make this extra cost all communication ceased and the numbers went to a voicemail that said caller is not in service.they now have my name,address,phone number,signature and email plus $900
So on my way there, which was a 4 hour drive, he said can you please just send the rest thru cash app. I knew right then and there that this was gonna be a huge mistake. I told him no and that I was almost there. I got to the address where he told me he lived and it was someone else that lived there. I talked to the person that lived there and he hadn’t heard of Hartley Freeman. I told him that this Hartley Freeman used his address. He seemed very upset and I showed him the contract that Hartley wrote up and his address. He said can I take a picture of this so I can look him up and I said absolutely.
So I drive 4 hrs away and lost $300. He has changed his Facebook profile several times but using the same pictures. I messaged him and told him that he owes me $300 and gas money. He admitted to me that he was a scammer and said he would refund my money. He has not refunded me and I can no longer message him. It just says cannot send message.
