Hello, I’d need to report a terrible scam. My family and I we “adopted” a pet online that was supposed to come home through the delivery service. There was an ad about the pet which was a labradoodle, we contacted this person and said that we were interested, the person was going to register the pet in a delivery company which was Chariot Live Express they even have a website which i will put the link farther on. First the total of the pet was going to be $400 which was $250 plus shipping; meanwhile we were waiting the pet was supposed to arrive at 5:13pm at our house, it didn’t arrive because of weather delay and we wanted the pet to get home safe and that same day, we had to pay $980 for pet insurance, and $694 for vaccines and the thermic box in which the pet was going to travel in since the flight had two stops before coming directly to florida. Afterwards the pet was supposed to be home at 10:48pm and obviously it didn’t come home, it was all a fraud and the people keep calling us and sending us more emails that I will attach but they said the pet was in quarantine so for us to be able to take it out we had to pay $2,800 which we didn’t pay.

This is a HUGE scam. They have no puppy for you. They never did. They keep asking you for more money and more money. Once you send the first part, they milk you for more. They feel you have invested and you will send more for eroneous insurance that does not exist and all the other money.
It is so EASY for them to steal from people. They put a fake ad with fake pictures and sell these puppies that don't exist. They milk you dry until you refuse to send more money. If you sent this money Money Gram or Western Union, you will never see the money again. The scammers just get the MCTN number from you and go to the Money Gram or Western Union and take the money. The address is fake. They can pick up the money anywhere in the world as long as they have the MCTN number.
Why didn't you meet before sending 10 cents to these people? Why would you pay a stranger hundreds of dollars for an animal that does not exist?
Go to Google and type in "Is this a Scam?" There you will see scam warning sites. Post your story everywhere you can. This is all you can do. You are a victim of the scammers, who are criminals in a foreign country and you will never see your money again. Post a complaint on the site where you found the ad.
