I was looking for French Bulldog Breeders online when I found one at:
http://amazingfrenchies.yolasite.com/
I emailed the breeder Olivia Koti at [email protected] about her bulldog puppies.
We emailed back and forth and she stated the puppies were $290 and were based out of Florida. She would then have the puppy delivered to a Delivery agency that would take care of everything and to watch my emails for the status of the puppy.

I received this email from [email protected] for the first one:

After I sent the $290 for the puppy, I then received another email saying the paper needed an insurance coverage and papers to be sent:

Dear customer ,
We are sorry for the fact that your Puppy cannot get on the flight now. While the puppy was to go on-board,
the documents were verified and we realized they are not complete.
We will need the Certificate of Ownership that transfers the ownership of this puppy and to certify you as the new owner of the puppy.WE WILL SEND YOU A COPY OF THE CERTIFICATE.These are the must important documents for Pets and Animal transportation.The Insurance cover is to insure their life in case of any accident.The PETS/DEPARTMENT FOR ATLASPETS does not permit the transportation of young BIRDS,HORSES,CATS & DOGS etc without a Life Insurance Cover.Especially because of the weather we have now.AS STATED UNDER THE ANIMAL RESCUE LAW.
The sector of the Insurance For Pets And Animals In General(TSIPAG) decided to insure the life of the Puppy and that cost $250
This is beneficial to you because in case of any accident while transporting this puppy,our INSURANCE SERVICE will compensate you for all your spendings and will take full responsibility.
NB: OUR INSURANCE POLICY is both advantageous for our clients and us in the fact that the insurance fee is REFUNDABLE BY 90% CASH or CHEQUE upon delivery of the PUPPY at your home.
SO WE WILL NEED YOU TO PAY IN THIS FEE NOW FOR THE DOCUMENTS TO BE PROCESSED AND THE PUPPY WILL BE DELIVERED ON THE NEXT SCHEDULE AT 8:30PM TODAY.
The total fee to be paid is as follows;
.
INSURANCE COVER..................................................$250(-90% refundable)
CERTIFICATE OF OWNERSHIP.................................$160(90% refundable)
Total fees to be paid being............$410
Refundable% ...........90% of $410= $370
.
All Payment To Same Address and Names as Before.

WITH THESE DOCUMENTS,YOU CAN TRAVEL ANY WHERE AND ANY COUNTRY WITH YOUR PET HAVING THESE DOCUMENTS.WE CAN ONLY PROCEED WITH THE DELIVERY IF THIS FEE IS PAID BECAUSE IT IS VERY RISKY FOR US TRANSPORTING THIS PUPPY WITHOUT A LIFE INSURANCE COVER. WE HAVE TO GET THE INSURANCE PAPERS PROCESSED ALL IN YOUR NAMES. AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE THEY GET TO YOU TODAY .

YOU ARE REQUESTED TO PAY THE TOTAL FUND VIA WESTERN UNION SERVICE AT YOUR AREA BECAUSE WE HAVE THEIR UNITS AT OUR HEADQUARTERS DESIGNED FOR SUCH TRANSACTIONS,TO THE DIRECTOR OF PET AIR AWAYS DELIVERY SERVICES FLORIDA TO THE INSURANCE SECTOR USING THE ADDRESS;

FOR ANY INQUIRIES ABOUT PAYMENTS
WHEN YOU ARE PAYING THE FEES YOU WILL NEED A TEST QUESTION,MAKE IT TO BE

TEST QUESTION; WHAT IS NEEDED ?
ANSWER; INSURANCE.


N/B.KEEP THE TEST QUESTION AND ANSWER VERY PRIVATELY AS IT IS VERY CONFIDENTIAL IN THE TRANSACTIONS




Reasons why we adopted a Non Pet Shipping without an
Insurance paperwork.

1.} Incase of any pet abandonement at our agency , PETS without insurance, will be homeless while pets with insurance will be protected by their life insurance department,our insurance cover goes for an additional 1month when the PETS are already with you

2.}Incase of any accidents while transporting your pet, like any defects attacking your PETS, you will be 100percent compensated by the insurance company since your PETS possess` a life insurance .

3.} Lastly , we were charged last 3weeks back by a client for the fact that we did not handle the shipping of her puppy well by shipping the puppy without a USDA paperwork. The client charged us for $4500 and we paid her and so we are avoiding such an instance once more so by introducing a non pet shipping policy without the above documents and papers work .


Thanks and we hope you corporate with us .

I then emailed the breeder informing her and she said its refundable and everything so I sent the $410. I kept calling and calling for the status of the puppy and they kept pushing it off. I then recieved a third email saying the puppy needed vaccines in order to board the flight! Heres the email:

After I recived this I was like HELL NO. The breeder told me the dog was vaccinated. I emailed her and she said she was sorry they must have expired? Please help Ill pay the $300 if you can pay the $500. I'm begging you for the puppies sake. I freaked and tried to scream at them to refund my money and nothing.

I contacted the REAL Pet Airways immediately and they said Pet Airways only accepts payment by credit card via our secure website. If you have been in contact with an individual claiming to use Pet Airways for transport of a pet for sale from outside the United States, or have paid for transport of a pet via Western Union, you may be unfortunately the victim of a scam. You may alert Western Union of a suspected fraud by calling 1-800-448-1492. If have you received emails from someone claiming to represent Pet Airways that originate from any domain other than @petairways.com, please forward the complete email so we may investigate further.

If you get there emails forward them to: [email protected]

I have reported it to Western Union, Internet Crime Center, Pet Airways and local Authorities. I hope we catch these people!!!
