🚨 PUPPY BUYERS, BEWARE! SCAMMERS ARE OUT THERE! 🚨
I want to share something concerning in hopes of preventing someone from getting scammed!
I recognize these puppies! 🐶❤️ They appear to be from a litter raised by Lonesome Grove Beagles earlier this year. I personally know the people behind Lonesome Grove, and they have wonderful pups!
What's even more upsetting is that the people behind this page are also using MY LOGO and taking advantage of MY NAME and REPUTATION to make themselves appear trustworthy.
It's frustrating to see people using someone else's puppy pictures, logo, and good name to gain the trust of unsuspecting families.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN LOOKING FOR YOUR NEXT PUPPY!
🐾 Know who you're getting your puppy from!
🐾 Ask for references and actually CHECK THEM!
🐾 Pick up the phone and TALK to the person! Don't rely on Facebook messages or texts alone.
🐾 Ask for a live video call to see the puppies.
🐾 Be cautious of anyone pressuring you to send money or a deposit.
🐾 Don't assume a page is legitimate just because it has lots of followers, cute puppy pictures, or a familiar logo.
🐾 If something doesn't feel right, trust your instincts!
I've worked hard to build a good reputation, and I certainly don't appreciate someone using my logo or name to mislead people. I don't want anyone to lose their hard-earned money or have their heart broken thinking they're bringing home a puppy that may not even exist.
There are good, honest people out there, but unfortunately, there are also people willing to take advantage of others.
❤️🐾 Do your homework. Ask questions. Check references. Make that phone call!
🚨 PLEASE SHARE! If this helps even one family avoid getting scammed, it's worth spreading the word!
