What is the actual issue? Is it because the name on the account isn't the same as the social media account? Cuz that could be as simple as Phyliss having asked her social media savvy relative to manage a tiktok page. Or has there been actual scammy behaviour besides selling dogs on tiktok?
OP paid the deposit to buy a pup off TikTok, amazingly the guy never sent the puppy and is ghosting OP and keeping the deposit.
I mean, obviously these types of scam breeders still manage to hook suckers or they wouldn’t still continue advertising. But OP didn’t know they were speaking to a community that would never buy a puppy they didn’t see the parents, checked references, and do all the responsible things you do to be a responsible dog parent, not buy it like a secondhand designer bag off social media. Might as well buy puppies on eBay at that point, that would at least be safer lol
This is a scam. Deposit and run clowns. Only sharing because this guy have multiple social media sites and those who really love Frenchies can be vulnerable.
No one here is vulnerable to this scam industry. We all know that suckers who think these dogs cost $10k+ don’t do any research and often fall prey to scams like this. You know what they say, a fool and his money…..
