🚨Scammer Alert🚨
Account running this scam: crusadingcross
Type of scam: Vet bill / donation scam
How / why this is a obvious scam:
1 - "He is an 8 year old ragdoll"
That is obviously a black cat. Not a ragdoll.
This is a ragdoll:
2 - Vet is in Minnesota, but the Paypal is based in the Philippines...?
Thank you to @kyra45 for the second screenshot which can be found here. :)
Also as noted in Kyra's post, this vet bill is from a post on a facebook group where it was stolen from and is being used for this scam here on tumblr. If you want proof, DM @kyra45 for it.
3 - 'send the money through friends and family'
Never send money to someone through friends and family unless you know them personally. If you send them (a scammer) money through friends and family, once they're found out to be a scammer, you cannot request this money to be returned to you due to it being considered a personal gift.
