Total money lost $900

Type of a scam Online Purchase

I came across a website called Pooch Samoyeds with interest in purchasing a puppy named Leo (they also other puppies listed: Onyx, Parker Yogi, and Polar). I got in contact with the breeder via email, who claims to be Kathy Hayward. Kathy sends me a Bill of Sale that confirms the purchase of puppy in the amount of $900 and $250 for shipping. On the Bill of Sale has the names Mark Spencer and Lena Turner who Kathy claims is her daughter and daughter’s husband as they are the one’s who help in handling the transaction. She says to wire the $900 through Zelle to [email protected] as the seller email address. Please be aware of this website as it is definitely a scam! Kathy uses different names for the Bill of Sale and a different email address to wire the money. She also claims that she lives in San Mateo, but the address on the Bill of Sale is in Florida.
