MoneyGram Money Transfers Complaint

MoneyGram Money transfers department,

Domestic (US) money transfer Fraud or scam North Carolina

This is a summary and a full version will be attached to this complaint. I was victimized by a scam involving online sale of puppies. Perpetrator was sophisticated in the way they described their program and involved victim in their process. They started out with a beautiful puppy and great concern over well being of the puppy and got you to buy into how sincere they were. They convinced me to send $750.00 - $500.00 for puppy, $250.00 for shipping ( at a cost of $11.00 to me ). Then they said they would ship puppy & I would be contacted by delivery company. Delivery company contacted me with elaborate delivery procedures & instructions then at the last minute the delivery company contacted us wanting $1800.00 for life insurance on the puppy saying they would return $1700.00 of the $1800.00 at the time they delivered the puppy. The backed up the demand for the $1800.00 with references to - regulations. We did not pay the $1800.00. It is a pretty elaborate scheme. It works fast. I am afraid other vulnerable people are being defrauded by this scheme. I suspect that the breeder and the delivery company are actually the same person or people.
