i told her twice that im not comfortable sharing that info, and that i'v "been scammed before" and she responds back with "you can trust me, im not after that, it's the only way"
im sorry, but that's exactly what a scammer would say :/ hello? person with red paint all over both hands standing next to a wall covered with the same sized red hand prints :/
as im typing this i get a text back from her offing to let me back out (after re guilt tripping me about 'i just want them to have a good home' ) :/ but still wants the info to return my money :/
although i would love my money back, to return what i borrowed and to look for a breeder - im not sure i'd trust her as far as i could trow her to actually not be scamming me further.
so yeah, any advise? i was hoping not to have to involve any cops especially cuz she mentioned in her 'guilt tripping me' that she knows what happens to scammers who are reported so i was hoping to fix this quietly and i was doing this on my own so i'd hate to have to make official reports. |
Why do you not want to get the police involved? What does she mean, "she knows what happens to scammers who are reported"? SHE is the scammer, not you right? So why are you scared to get the cops involved.
And hate to break it to you, but if you can't afford to be out $400 (well I mean who
wants to be out $400) you can't afford a dog, let alone a yorkie. Buying the dog is the cheapest part of the equation. You asked for our advise I hope you take it this time. We all told you last time not to use Money Gram and that person seemed shady.
Think about it, if someone really had dogs to rehome, for free, wouldn't there be a bunch of people in their own town, let alone friends or family that would take them off their hands first?
If you want to get a yorkie for a few hundred dollars, look into reputable rescues.
