Complaint Review: Oodle Marketplace for pets

Went to Oodle Marketplace and found a boston terrier puppy I wanted to purchase. Could only ,email or text Nelly Brooke. Sent him a text message via my cell phone. Received a text back requesting my email address. He said he had some questions first. Gave email address to him and he emailed me and I answered the questions. He emailed that I would need to go to Walmart and purchase a "U LOAD IT CARD" with a specified amount of money on it for the purchase of the puppy. He said that, once I did that, I needed to call him with the 10 digit code so that the puppy could be released to "U-Ship Transport". My husband and I checked the manifest to see if the puppy was registered for shipping and no record. We called Walmart and they said that they discontinued those cards and that this was a scam. I emailed him and stated that "we did not feel comfortable with that method of payment and asked if there was another means of payment". Received text back stating "What are you trying to said" and then all communication ceased. Basically , he wanted the code to get money and no puppy was coming to us. It also took 5 requests for a pic of the puppy, of which I believe was from a legitimate pic of someone else's puppy. I decided to look at this website more carefully and discovered that just under "Boston Terrier Puppies for sale", I found the number 720-449-6846 listed to 5 different people in five different states. The names were ethnic names. How is that? I read some other complaints from other people today about the same thing happening to them with other purebred dog breeds that were posted on "U-Ship Transport" web site. I believe that these people overseas have set up this elaborate scheme to defraud the citizens of the United States of America for pets that do not exist and if that is so, the Webmaster needs to shut these crooks down at Oodle Marketplace. While these criminals did not get money from me, I feel sorry for other people that have been scammed by them. Never do load cards or cash. Use your credit card that is a zero fraud liability. For my state, I have filed a report with ice8 (place that investigates internet fraud and scams) and I have saved all of my emails and texts for this investigative agency. Beware you crooks, I'm letting all know what to look for on Oodle Marketplace with multiple number people in different states having same telephone. That's a red flag right there.
