I think it was really dumb to trust someone to send you the dog you are expecting after sending a MONEY ORDER with NO proof that you even gave this woman (the seller) money. But, I have made that mistake before with concert tickets, and I still am hitting myself every day. Dumb move. Never money gram cash to a person, no matter how much you trust them.
And personally, I find the seller to be annoying and immature. Stop pulling the "boo hoo" for me card. It doesn't matter what has happened in your life recently - it doesn't give you an excuse to do what you do. *shrug* I hate to sound impersonal, but I've gone through a lot of CRAP in my life in the last 2 years (including losing a 6 year old brother three years ago) but it doesn't give me an excuse to rip someone off, act like a fool, or be a loser.
That's my thoughts. And I'm out. |
It wasn't a money order. I wanted to pay with Paypal but she refused and insisted on a wire transfer. At least with the wire transfer, I have a case. It's a federal crime to use a wire transfer in connection with fraud.
The president of the avian society that I work with is a lawyer. I'm sure he'll help me with all the paperwork and filing the appropriate documents regarding this situation. so it won't cost me anything out of my pocket.
