We received this e-mail. It is an excellent example of the bullying that scammers will do to try and get more money from their victims. Again, there is no puppy, just a thief trying to steal money.

HELLO MADAM KARINA.
WE ARE VERY SORRY BUT WE CANNOT SEND THE DOG TO YOU WITHOUT THE CAGE OK.
THE WEATHER IS EXTRMELY COLD AND THE BLANKETS CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO THE DOG OK.
SO THE OWNER OF THE DOG HAS PAID 200EUROS SO ALL YOU HAVE TO DO NOW IS JUST TO PAY 215EUROS SO YOU CAN GET YOUR DOG TODAY AND WHEN YOU SEND THE CAGE BACK YOU GET THE 215EUROS BACK.
SO NOW YOU TRY BY ALL MEANS TO SEND US THE 215EUROS AND GET YOUR DOG TODAY.
IF YOU REALLY LOVE YOUR DOG THEN SEND THE MONEY AND GET IT AND DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR HUSBAND WHEN THE DOG WILL ARRIVE TODAY THEN YOU CAN SURPRISE HIM OK.
SO TRY AND SEND 215EUROS NOW UNDER THE SAME ADDRESS AND GET YOUR DOG.
THANKS.
PETSTRANSPORT AIRPORT.

It's a scam don't send them money.Why would they blame your husband for it.Next time they send you an e mail like that.TEll them you went to the police station with copies of all the e-mails.They'll stop and change their e-mail quick.But aslo go to the police and aske them what you should do for them to stop harassing you and to get your money back.I don't think you'll get the money back since the e-mail and name is a fake. Woensdag is Wednesday in english.
ReplyDeletePlease do try and adopta dog from your local petco they charge 225 and you get the dog the same day.There are plenty of pets who need loving homes. But I you do want a small dog try and find a breeder locally.where you pay cash and get the dog right there and then.
hope this helps
