What is a pet scam?

Online pet scams are a growing concern, where swindlers create alluring advertisements featuring adorable pets, often listed at significantly reduced prices or even offered for free adoption. These con artists meticulously build a facade of trustworthiness by setting up counterfeit logistics websites and pretending to be associated with reputable pet shipping companies. Communication with potential victims is usually conducted through instant messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Facebook Messenger. Scammers avoid phone calls and categorically refuse to engage in video calls, which would expose their deceit by allowing buyers to see the pet in real-time.

Once the initial shipping fee is paid, the scammers concoct elaborate stories about unexpected customs hold-ups, pressuring the victim for more money to cover these supposed additional costs. This cycle of deception and extortion persists until the victim realizes the harsh truth that the pet never existed, leaving them devastated both emotionally and financially.
