| +1 Pug puppies Jully Hannah posted a add on facebook selling a male and a female pug puppies 11 weeks old names Shugah and Zullu. I messaged her and she told me to email her so i did. She told me she was in Ballarat taking care of her sick aunty and thats why she was selling the dogs. She said she would have the dog shipped to us we just needed to pay shipping. I said we would pay cash on delivery whotch was unexpected as it had to be payed befor shipping. I then proceded to tell her to organise the shipping and to get the company to contact me and i would pay directly. I recived an email from her saying she was using PET TAXI she was not. I recived an email from the fake company saying to send the money to a country in Africa and to tell the bank it was a gift. It sounded suspension to me so i looked at her facebook to decover the pictures where of an actress named Ashley Benson. All the names she used where some how related to the tv show that Ashley Benson stars in. On the shipping info she used the name Anne Ashley both names relatimg to the show. She was trying to get me to pay $267 aud. |

Elizabeth Moon posted on FB about "re-homing" her pug bailey. Even mentioned that I have to send her pics of him.
So she says I just need to pay to transfer the papers and for the courier, and then I get an email from "Pet Taxi" pet247taxi@hotmail.com. It all looks way too fake to me, then I looked it up and this came up! Seems they try to scam people with pug puppies! Awful. She wanted me to pay $350. Obviously, I didn't give them a cent.
