Alert
Based
on a report we've received, Better Business Bureau believes this is a
fraudulent online entity. The consumer who brought Kangalpuppies.com or Baby French Bulldogs to our attention stated the entity collected
a $850 payment via wire transfer - a
hallmark of fraudulent online pet schemes. However, the entity failed to ship
the pet as promised and is not responding to requests for a refund. From
previous experience with these types of fraudulent entities and search shows the address does not exist, BBB also believes this entity has no local presence in North Dakota.
BBB
offers the following tips to avoid online pet selling scams:
* Beware of online or classified ads with multiple misspellings and/or
grammatical errors. Many pet scams originate overseas, so scammers usually
don't have a good grasp of the English language.
* Don't be fooled by a well-designed website. Scammers can easily steal images
and details from postings off the websites of legitimate breeders. Always
research companies at BBB.org.
* Watch out for requests to wire money. This is usually a sign you're dealing
with a scammer. Never wire money to someone you haven't met in person.
*Be leery of classified ads that promise cheap or free pets for adoption. These
offers sound good, until the scammers tell you your pet is at the airport but
you'll have to pay unexpected fees to move forward with the adoption process.
The fees continue to mount and people eventually realize these offers were not
legitimate.
* Watch out for situations where you're asked to wire funds to unknown
third-parties for shipping or transportation. These are often other fraudulent
entities working in tandem with the supposed pet seller.
