True Heart Maine Coon Cattery

Fake Breeder

Website: https://trueheartmainecooncattery.com/

Payment: zelleLost: $600 Boynton Beach, Florida

I had a concerning experience with a seller named "True Heart Maine Coon," who used the email trueheartmainecoon@gmail.com. Their website seemed legitimate, which made me trust them. However, I lost $600 in the process. The seller claimed to be in Boynton Beach, Florida, but the address was fake. I had a bad feeling but ignored it. I repeatedly asked for a video of the Maine Coon kitten for sale, but the seller kept offering excuses. Fortunately, I halted an additional $400 payment thanks to Bank of America's vigilance. This experience taught me to trust my instincts and be cautious when dealing with anyone requesting payment up front. Always verify claims thoroughly to avoid scams like this! He has the same cats on his website stating they are 10weeks old Name: Kuba Age: 10 weeks old Sex: male Price: $600 Status: Available Pedigree: Yes Registered: Yes Vaccinations: Up-to-Date Shipping: Included
