What is a pet scam?

Online pet scams are a growing concern, where fraudsters exploit the emotions of animal lovers by advertising nonexistent pets for sale or adoption. These scammers entice unsuspecting individuals with heartwarming pictures of puppies, kittens, or other pets, often claiming that the animal is available for free, with the only cost being for transportation. To make the scam appear legitimate, they may even set up fake websites for bogus shipping companies, complete with customer service representatives, to reassure the victim about the pet’s delivery process. The scammer typically refuses to provide a live video of the pet, citing various excuses, and pressures the victim to pay the shipping fee promptly.

After the initial payment, the scammer might concoct additional obstacles, such as unexpected quarantine or customs fees, to extract more money. This cycle of deceit and manipulation can continue until the victim is financially drained or becomes suspicious. Unfortunately, by the time the realization sets in that the pet never existed, the victim has often suffered significant financial loss and emotional trauma.
