What is a pet scam?

Online pet scams have become a sophisticated trap for unsuspecting animal lovers. Scammers lure their victims with heartwarming pictures of puppies, kittens, or other pets, often claiming they are available at significantly reduced prices or even for free. To make their deceit more convincing, these con artists create fake websites that mimic legitimate pet shipping companies, complete with customer service representatives and tracking options. Communication is usually limited to text-based platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Facebook Messenger, as the scammers avoid voice or video calls that could expose their ruse.

Once the initial ‘shipping fee’ is paid, the scammer may concoct elaborate stories involving customs hold-ups or quarantine issues, each time asking for more money to resolve these fabricated problems. The cycle of deceit only ends when the victim realizes the pet never existed, leaving them with a heavy heart and an empty wallet.
