Been scammed and I knew better

I was trying to buy a French bulldog online from privdom french bulldogs.. paid for the dog of course stupidly through money gram. The seller then said I would get shipping info from the shipping company. And of course I did .. from unipet ( United pet transport) saying I needed to pay an extra $1050.00 for a temperature controlled crate and life insurance. . To be paid by money gram.. tried looking for info on the shipping company but could only find was a haphazard website..so yeah I got scammed

Hello Lmerm8 ,
Please do not report the email address as it will only take a couple of minutes for the scammer to create a new email address and continue with the scams. As long as he is using the same email address for all of his scams it makes it easier for others to find the this thread and be warned about the scam.

If you have any additional questions please ask.

The telephone number (302) 585-4697 is a computer base VoIP number so your scammer can be located anywhere in the world that has high speed internet access.

Did they say they were from Baltimore?? And what color were the pups??

Hello slburns,
These scammers often change their claimed location so they are not close to your location. Part of the scam is to get you to send money to a fake shipping company. If you are responding to an online ad for bulldogs that are being offered well below the current market value it is most likely a scam.
If the pet seller or pet shipper asked for a payment via money gram or western union then it is a scam.

If you have any emails you can post them here and we will be able to determine if they are from a scammer.
