Pet Shipping Scam Revealed

Pet Question

I believe that many people like pets very much, but they are hesitant to buy them easily because they have all heard of pet shipping scams. Now I will give you an inventory of three pet shipping scams.

First, the seller opened a pet store on an online platform, but the online store customer service sent the text "Add 131××××3526 to watch cute videos" to guide consumers to WeChat for transactions, bypassing The online platform supervises the payment directly into the seller’s account.

The second is that sellers only provide pet videos to consumers and do not accept real-time videos to check the status of pets. Without providing specific pet information in advance, consumers cannot Confirm the consistency and health of the purchased pet.

Third, the actual place of delivery is unclear. Taking the above complaint as an example, the seller initially claimed that it would be shipped by air from Shanghai to Liaocheng, but later changed his claim to be shipped by air from Shanghai to Laizhou, and then by land from Laizhou to Liaocheng, but refused to provide the logistics tracking number.
