What happened
We found them on Facebook. They told us that we had to pay a 50% deposit before they deliver the puppy and the remaining 50% on delivery of the puppy. After making the R1250 payment They then said that the puppy was at 4th Revolution logistics and even sent us the three waybill tod's. Before the puppies could departure they told us that we need to pay an additional R2000 for a special crate in order for the puppy to be able to go onto the plane but told us we will get refunded once the puppy arrives. We asked more questions and and they told us they cannot make the payment because it has to be done by the buyer. They then procced to hurry us up because the plane was going to leave and if we don't pay the R2000 the delivery will be canceled an we can only be refunded within 14 days. we then researched the images they sent us and found them on a different instagram and facebook page that was verified. They tried to send us copy of I'D's and banking details but would not video call us. We then procced with not doing anything as we realized we were scammed.
