Complaint Review: Michelle Fazio

Michelle Fazio John Ferris Bird Breeder, Doll Dealer, Scam artist Queens, New York

  • Reported By:
    DOLL — Queens New York United States of America
  • Submitted:
    Thu, November 08, 2012
  • Updated:
    Thu, February 21, 2013

I am uncertain of the true identity of this person. She currently goes by the name Michelle Fazio and breeds african greys and sells collectables. When dealing with customers or vendors she gives a variety of phone numbers with numberous zip codes, and she uses fake addresses. Some names are Michelle Wallace. She received legal action 2 years ago under the name Robin Schulder for running a puppy mill in Queens, New York. See the link below for the MyFOX report. 

http://www.myfoxny.com/story/17429675/queens-dog-breeder-part-2


She has two websites for bird breeding: AfricanGreysNY.com and macawshyacinth.com

She also ran an internet site reselling dolls - purchsed dolls on ebay and never payed for them. Many of the dolls she listed for sell on her site were not even in her possession.

She is a notorious scammer. Please use caution when buying, selling or interacting with this person in any forum.

Robin SchulderRobin Schulder, labeled Queens Cruella by Gothamist, will have to pay a small fortune for her misdeeds. The penalty: $167,000 and a prohibition against operating, promoting or participating in any businesses relating to dogs in any way. The stipulated settlement was with the New York State Office of the Attorney General, which had been pursuing the Internet breeder along with CAPS since 2007. After receiving complaints from consumers who purchased sick puppies from online dog businesses, CAPS asked the AG's office to start a case.  

Originally, Andrew Cuomo Attorney General at the time went after Imported Quality Guard Dogs and the Animal Rescue Unit, two of the businesses owned by Schulder. In a statement back in 2010, Cuomo said she "engaged in deceptive business practices and false advertising." There were obvious violations of the state's Pet Lemon Law and the deception went further than selling sick puppies or the wrong breed.

During her "reign," Schulder pretended to run a "no-kill shelter" called Animal Rescue Unit (a pretty despicable act on its own) and duped dozens of consumers into buying sickly puppies of various breeds from several websites. She claimed she bred the dogs herself, although a CAPS undercover investigation didn't see any evidence of a kennel operation in her home. She contacted CAPS about one of the complaints filed against her but was reluctant to answer CAPS' questions about the source of her dogs or her suspicious practices. Instead, she claimed to belong to a number of animal protection organizations and that she ran a nonprofit rescue organization, at one point offering to donate to CAPS as a veiled bribe. After being probed by the government, CAPS and consumers, she claimed her alleged non-profit was inactive and that was the reason why she couldn't produce any records of dogs rescued by the organization.'

Schulder has a history of shady practices and exhibits all the tell-tale signs of a con-artist. Some of the customers reported that Schulder verbally assaulted them when they demanded reimbursement for veterinary care or when they tried to return puppies. In some cases, Schulder sent pictures but delivered completely different dogs - at times not even the same breed. This was a classic bait-and-switch scheme that caught the Attorney General's attention. Schulder and Reich also sold dogs over the Internet, site unseen, and claimed to get some of their puppies from family-owned kennels in Europe.

Late last year, Schulder filed for bankruptcy. The state had to wait until the summer of 2012 to collect the settlement money through the bankruptcy court even though the stipulated settlement was reached in April 2011. The stipulation also enjoined Schulder from soliciting or collecting funds for or on behalf of the Animal Rescue Unit or from operating, promoting or participating in any animal related charitable organizations or activities. Schulder finally admitted that the Animal Rescue Unit, which she advertised as a no-kill shelter, was inactive and that she couldn't produce any records of the dogs rescued by her alleged non-profit organization.

Although far from a happy ending, the Queens Cruella won't be conning any more unsuspecting customers. Thanks to the combined efforts of government officials and CAPS, Schulder paid a steep fine and won't be able to sell dogs or engage in charitable work on behalf of animals. Her story should be a cautionary tale for those considering to buy dogs from any Internet sellers. For more information about Internet sellers, read the CAPS fact sheet "Why You Shouldn't Buy that Puppy on the Internet."

This is what she does

This is the old forum,where she would point the finger at everyone else, excluding herself. This is the forum where she told everyone THEY KILLED THEIR OWN PETS. (ironic isnt it?that so many of her bulldog puppies died?) This is the forum where she decided it was ok for her to threaten victims of her  and their children, but brought lawsuits up on a few of the women for millions of dollars for defamation of character. All because they beat her in a court of law, and wanted their judgements fulfilled. This is the forum where we all got to watch the Attorney Generals Office with the help of the Dept of Agriculture and the ASPCA strip her of her license, allowing her to NEVER BE ABLE TO WORK WITH, TRAIN OR SELL ANY MORE ANIMALS!!! And from what I understand they snatched up quite a bit of her cash. After freezing all of her assets and her claiming to be forced to eat at soup kitchens.
So tell me prospective victims, is this the type of person that you want to do business with? I think not.
This woman, Michelle Fazio/Wallace is actually Robin Schulder,  formally of BUULDOGSRUS. Ask yourself this, Why would she have to change her name? And her "Baby Daddy" John Ferris is one in the same as well. He actually helped in bringing charges against her. Yes he did, mailed in quite alot of evidence. 
So after I finish this post, you can rest assure that I am contacting EVERY SINGLE BIRD ASSOCIATION OUT THERE. Starting with LIPS which I am conveniently a member of. Once again, you have my word, you will be shut down. You have many many sites with the same exact phone number on the web. Whats the matter Robin, Cant be a phony vet tech anymore? I bet you miss performing surgeries on your poor helpless bulldogs on your washing machine. using bleach on their skin to try and treat the mange. Trying to fix the cherry eye yourself. May the lives of all those precious babies and the babies that you probably aspirate now, come back to haunt you in this entire lifetime and your next!!!

Nice try Robin ~ posing as someone else asking for help gathering information to "help your case" !!  Your games are NOT going to work this time.  What WILL work is that this time, you will be PERMANENTLY shut down. You deserve to rot in a jail cell and made to suffer the way that you made innocent animals suffer.  Why birds?

Oh I know......because they are easier "to get rid of" when you neglect and abuse them.  I am assuming that you are running out of room in your back yard to bury animals considering it must be full of dogs.  You are a disgusting animal.  Always have been and always will be.  Your games don't change ~ just the victims.  Be a real woman and get a REAL JOB!!  Stop preying on the innocent people that actually want pets/animals to become part of their family.

You can run but you certainly can NOT hide.  You will never be able to escape from the demons and all of the animals that met their demise because of your ignorance and selfishness that haunt you.  Perry was just another one of your pawns and now it appears that John Ferris is back in the picture?  How about your son?  Using him to fill your pockets with what has been taken from you because of the Attorney General.  This is far from over honey.  You will see.  All of those skeletons in your closet have just escaped and are hunting you down for revenge.  If I were you, I would sleep with one eye open!

Didn't take too long for you to pop back up did you? Got sick of selling sick and dying puppies, so now you have moved on to sick birds? tsk tsk tsk. When will you ever learn? I don't believe you are allowed to be selling any animals/pets at all !! Leave poor Perry alone. You tried to push your whole legal situation on him. Shame Shame Shame.......SHAME ON YOU!! And I guess its safe to say you are still living under video surveillance? Afraid some of your submissives will find you? Or are you no longer into dominatrix since all the Grey books were released? I am sure you cant complete with that.....

People, please beware!! Do not fall for her and any of her scam sights. Do not purchase any living creatures off of her. She does not take care of any of her animals. Forged vet certificates and papers. TRUST ME......stay away from Michelle Fazio, Michelle Wallace, Robin Schulder & John Ferris. Scammers only looking to rip people off instead of going out and looking for real jobs. Just google their names and you will see the truth!! They have gone from selling every kind of dog you can imagine, to selling antiques and estates, to selling dolls, and now birds. Oh yes, and lets not forget selling herself as a dominatrix as well.......

This lady, Michelle fazio at Parrots Sale has MANY different names that
she uses to scam people with. She steals ads, and posts them for
thousands of dollars more. Then, when you ask to go see the birds she
says you need to give her your CC# first, - if that doesnt say SCAM i
dont know what does.. After she agrees to let you see the birds, she
gives you FALSE addresses. 458 helene ave NYC. She's very sick in the
mind.. She calls with threats, accuses of things far from true to try to
take down any business that calls her out on this! She claims that her
husband is a lawyer which mean (in her mind) that she can get away with
everything and anything she wants.



She has posted videos of baby birds that she claims are hers, which are
very disturbing and disgusting. She gets so much air in their crop hand
feeding, causing the babies to be malnourished and sickly. She forces
& rushes weaning, also VERY unhealthy for birds, and pushes up on
the crop while handling causing them to throw up formula and aspirate. I
feel so terrible for the birds, Its very upsetting. She needs them
taken away from her ASAP!



I cannot say enough about how terrible this lady is. Honestly i pray for
her to smarten up and realize what shes doing is SO wrong. Shes taken
advantage of so many people, hurt so many birds, all so innocent but she
cannot think past the money.



Please think twice before even having contact with this woman. Shes
completely cut throat and vicious with her attacks. She is try her best
to shut down you and your business if you try to talk her out of
scamming.
