Dec.8 2015 After reading and going thru the websites trying to purchase a pocket pup for our daughter for 2-3 months. I kept running across this Posh Pocket Pups, every time I emailed her response was responded to quickly. I am an educated women and always knew I would never be involved being scammed, I'm way to intelligent for that!! Wrong, you go and view it, you will understand.
So after several conversations still having doubt. She posted a teacup English Bulldog it's still listed as Diva under category teacup Frenchies, it's still listed for sale! Yes, this was the puppy I purchased, so I thought!. She forwarded papers for me to sign on knowledge of animals. I sent it to her, I went to bank had them check in the bank before wiring funds, it was an legitimate bank. Sent wire. Days went by , did not hear from her? I called and called , finally I got her, and asked how puppy was doing and to send to me updated photos, she said she would. I had to ask 3 times. Still No photos.
Finally decided to contact her again, just go find out she blocked my number! Signs went up. I contacted the bank , explained to her what happened, I gave her my wiring information on their bank. She went into the account and saw my deposit was added. She couldn't tell me much since it was due to privacy act! But after looking at it, she did seemed concerned and as going to go to the Fraud and Risk Dept. Meanwhile I got a hold of the Canadian police, they advised me yo go to my local police dept. and file a complaint then Texas police will get ahold of them. So that is what I was going to do, prior to going to my local police dept. I get a call back from bank, and she said they also saw flags on the account, thanked me for coming forth, and assured me I was going to get my money back. She too agreed to file with my local police dept.
So I did, I filed and got case number The bank in Canada asked me to send copies to them. Texas police said they would file it and turn it over to the Fraud and Burglary dept. 3 weeks go by. I follow up with Canadian bank, we get into emails, I let her know that no one has contacted me from the bank, and that this website was still conducting business as usual ! I asked her out if curiosity if I was the last transaction that took place? Again she responded as the privacy act, but went ahead and checked and responded No you weren't the last , there has been several other deposits. I can't believe why something can't be done to stop others from being scammed? What is the bank doing? I responded I would like to know when my money would be returned? She said she would check and get back with me.
Finally when I heard back from her she said "I spoke to the risk dept. and they said since the money was deposited into their account. I should get a hold of who I sent it to go release it"? Are you kiddin mr? 1. My number was blocked! 2. There is No company! Why did I call you? Now who am I suppose to call? Was anyone not listening? Is the bank in with the scam? Bank is CiBC in Toronto! Now for 3 days I've been trying to get in touch with the officer In The burglary/fraud dept. I've left 2 voice mails, If anyone can send me any suggestions, attorney information it will be greatly appreciated. But if you plan on emailing on how stupid I was to fall for it, make sure you've gone to the websites and blogs etc. you won't call me stupid. The police did and couldn't believe how real it was and legit. Plus she sold the dog I purchased again to the caller. Yes! True.
