I was selling my puppies in our local news paper. I was contacted by two different people. They both called using the Relay phone service. They gave me their email address. Asked me to email them information on my puppies.
Then it started, the "lady" sent instrutions on what to do after payment has reached me. The payment got to me on 1-20 via overnighted using UPS. I was suppose to cash the check, send the balance to her shipper, using Western Union. The check was for 2600.00.
After I went to Western Union I sent the money, but I put a hold on it. I felt weird after I sent the money. So I googled the company name on the senders address. I called the company and they told me I was scammed.
I keep getting emails from this lady asking why I have not sent the money western union. I sent a message back telling her that she scammed me and the check was bad. She keeps writing that she is old christian soul who would never scam anyone.
Then there is "Paul Hendry" He calls using the relay phone call. He states that he wants to buy two puppies for his hearing imparied son. He says he mailing checks through USPS. Then I get a email wanting me to send the money via Western Union. Please watch out for these people.
