Scams selling or giving away non-existent animals, often Puppy Scams.

this is happening now, although too late to do anything
yesterday I thought I was buying a cat from Green Sphinx, paid $850 to [email protected] with Zelle for the cat and expenses to fly him to a near by airport. at that point I thought all was well when early the next morning I received the shipping information with a tracking number, then soon afterward I get a strange message from the delivery service Air Animal Pet Movers requiring insurance before boarding the fleight. Should have stopped and did more research at that point, but instead I panic and sent another $980 and draining my checking account to [email protected] jaylen jones for a refundable insurance premium for the cat incase it became sick or injured during the flight.
the red flag didn't strike me until 30 seconds after I sent the money and google searched the carrier and found your websight, I immediately called my bank and reported the incident but there was nothing else they could do, it's a cruel joke, I can still log into my checking account and the status for that payment is still "pending".
I rushed from work to the nearby sherriff's office to report this but they stated because I live and the first inciedent occurred in another county I would have to go to my home county to report it, I rushed to the sherrif office in my county to find they were closed, later realized there are 2 offences, one in the other county as well.
I have a lot more information on this, but right now I am just so rattled by all this, this carrier is still trying to call me, I spoke to one person from the carrier this morning, couldn't really understand him, at the same time I was on the phone with my bank representative. there may be some error were I sent the money to, they are still demanding a payment.

Dear customer,

Dear customer,

you will have to pay insurance coverage (PET CARE) for the transportation of your kitten. The insurance is refundable which means that it is refundable only to receiver at point of arrival.

The insurance for your pet is mandatory and it has to be settled 2 hours before departure time.

What does Pet Care cover?
•Pet return if the insured is hospitalized and cannot care for their pet. In most plans, the costs related to the pet’s return are paid by the insured – the assistance services team will make the arrangements and follow up.
•Assistance services for pet-related services such as veterinarians, dog walkers, and local pet sitters.
•Two plans stand out with unique pet benefits: Travel Select and Travel Max both offered by Travelex. These plans include emergency veterinarian care up to $1,000 for a dog or cat (or both) if traveling with the insured. In addition, they provide up to $10,000 for pet transportation costs to return the pet home if left unattended.
Important notes about this coverage
◦For trip delays, you will need to provide documentation from the licensed commercial kennel indicating the planned pick-up date and the actual pick-up date for your pet.
◦For trip delays, you’ll need to provide written documentation of the reason for the delay from the common carrier.

I'm sorry this happened to you, and thank you for reporting the scam details.

You need to file a report at IC3, give them as much information as you can:

https://www.ic3.gov/complaint/

Also, go back to your bank and request to speak with someone in the Fraud department, not just a teller. Explain to the Fraud department that you are a scam victim - show them the emails.

====================================
PLEASE DO NOT TELL A SCAMMER HE IS REPORTED HERE!
