Kenji Jones- Jennifer Brookers ripoff... internet puppy scam kenji jones moneygram shipping agent fake id Bessemer Alabama
So, I was searching for puppies on domesticsale.com (which is a good website), when I found the maltese puppy I wanted. It was a Jennifer Brookers and her puppy was only 300, shipping included. We emailed back and forth about the puppies and I decided to go ahead and buy them. She gained my trust by saying she wanted the puppies to be brought up in a "good christian home". I was to send a money gram to her "shipping agent" KENJI JONES, which I thought was odd but went ahead with it anyway.
A man called me the next day with a very odd voice/ accent. He called me from a restricted number. He told me he received the money and the puppy would be shipped Tuesday. Tuesday morning I was to get an email from Jennifer again with the shipping information.
Well, it is Tuesday now. I get an email from Jennifer stating that the puppy's health certificate needed to be renewed and that she would ship the puppy the very next day as long as I would send the 150 dollars to renew the health certificate right away. I responded by saying I shouldn't have to pay that, but I would do so as long as she had the vet call me to explain why the Health Certificate was 150 dollars. ( I looked online and most ranged from 25-50 dollars). I still have not heard back and saw that another person had the same experience with this "Kenji Jones".
I am trying to get my money back from moneygram because obviously this is not a real person, since the last person who had this happen to them said that Kenji Jones lived in New York, and I had to send the money to Alabama, however they are not being cooperative. The last person I talked to from Moneygram told me that as long as the person had a photo ID, they could receive the money. Apparently it's as easy as that.

You have to understand that moneygram only profits from a certain percentage of the FEE you paid to send the money. that means we made less than 9.99 from your send- there is no way we can refund the money, and we are not at fault because we had no way of knowing that you were going to be victimized. Moneygrams service is to make the money available to the person you sent it to and we did- if we had known about the situation prior to the recieve we would have gladly refunded the money along with the fee. Sorry all that happened to you, but if you were sending money to someone you knew you would want the pick up to be that simple.
