The transaction took place on July 2, 2024. This was a scam. jimmaltipoopuppies.com is the website I found on hoobly.com. I was looking to purchase a puppy. Hoobly is a website for independent breeders. Over the years I have purchased 2 other puppies, but not from jimmaltipoopuppies.com. I found the puppy Fiona who was supposed to be 11 weeks old on July 2. If you go to the website now, it still shows her as available 11 weeks old. I paid $500 through ***** **** **** to a brianarobnison15@icloud.com. He said that was his accountant. He is very good at making it seem like it is a real business. He stated in email to me that he had to know about me and my living conditions before they could agree to sell to me. Then when he approved me he said I had to also promise not to breed my puppy. There was an option to ship to airport for $200 and $500 to ship directly to my door. I said I would pick up in Burton, Ohio since I was on my way back from Myrtle Beach vacation and it was not far out of my way to Michigan. He said i could pick up at ***** * **** *** ******* ***** but it was a downtown not a private residence when I looked it up on google map. I also noticed my puppy was back on the website. I called the number I had, texted, and emailed, no response. i kept calling and he answered but I think by mistake. He said that I could call when I arrived at address and he would just come out. He also said the puppy was just up there to bring in business and he told them to take it off. The day of pick up July 14, i called and called and texted with no response. I never received the puppy. He is not answering any of my calls. I can't believe he actually was going to let me go to a false place after he already had my money. The number he gave me is ************. He answered the one time, but not since that one time. I figured out too late it was a scam. I have filed a police report and let my bank know, My goal is to have this website taken down,Initial Complaint
