I hope you get everything straightened out soon, or at least sooner than the worst case scenario.

Thank you! I know i have been in tears all night. Just beside myself. I am not rich my any means I do have to save for what i have. I keep a vet fund like any good owner does. but otherwise i live paycheck to paycheck. and this just upsets me so much. I have saved so long, and so hard to get all my babies! And than someone has to do this crud

Well..maybe Laira will sell on wensday when someone comes to look at her, and i can put that money to Ares

but that of course is breaking my heart too.

Your story is another reason I like paypal for tranactions like this.

We'll be here with you if you want to cry and get it out of your system.

I agree i am all about the paypal. I do everything with paypal..but she wasnt set up for paypal

this only goes to cement why i love paypal. they give my money back! LOL

Well...yay for me i get to work a swing shift... Anyone wanna be my gobetween and talk to passque and me on yahoo? LOL..i know sounds corney...but she has phone. and i have work, and no cell...but i have online..AHHH *sniffle*

And you trust her? and now she thinks you don't want him.

As a breeder if this happened to us, I think if the owner took more then a few weeks to pay the money again then we would probably sell the kitten. Refunding half of the money already paid.

scamperfarms · Jul 25, 2005

I just talked to her. We had a miscommunication, shes going to hold onto him. And I am going to pay it again. I really cant afford this all over again, but I will find a way.. I have too. Sure wish I knew away to get a loan super fast! I always pay everything off, have super good refrences. Crappy credit due to ID theft...but..lots of refrences.

Heck even had two people let me have the horse they sold me on payments on my property before they were paid off..they just held the papers....I just..dun know what to do now..

I need a money tree or a miracle right about now. *sighs*

Ok, I have read this whole thread and something doesn't seem right with this breeder, after reading this part. If this whole deal with your check was explained to her, why on earth would she think you do not want him? Plus the fact that you may be out the $300 you had already sent? That $300 is a deposit and there should be no way she could sell Ares unless you backed out. Yes, if you decided you no longer wanted him, then I could see the breeder telling you that you lost your deposit, but this is not the case. I would also call the post office, they should be able to put a trace on the last location of that check. The post office also has their own police, so they would be the ones to handle the case, if it was stolen from the mail. The bank should also know at what time this check was cashed and should have a video tape of the transaction, since all banks have cameras taping everything inside. If someone deposited the check through an ATM, that would be easier to catch the person, because they would have had to deposit the check into their personal account. I wish you luck with getting this resolved as soon as possible

bigkittendaddy · Jul 25, 2005

Your bank needs to track down exactly where and when the check was cashed. Was it cashed at a bank, liquor store? grocery whar? What about the Sig. Is there a Dl # copied down? This really smells fishey to me. I sure wouldnt send anymore money till I got some answers. Have you checked with others to see if there any red flags with this person? I hate to talk bad about anyone but the world is full of scammers unfortunatly. Call the PD in her area and ask if there have been any complaints of this nature lodged against her. The DA's office too.
I really hope you can get it worked out because I'm like you abnd cant afford to get ripped off.

wellingtoncats · Jul 25, 2005

I'm glad she is holding him for you. I hope you can find the money fast.

Thanks...I did delete that post cause I think it was a misscommuncation. at least I hope it was. I still want my guy! Hes a beauty and will be so great with my girls. Yes tommrow is going to be a busy busy day. I have to find sometime to sleep since i am working 16 hours today but you know how that stuff is.

I have a list, Bank, Police, post office, and the FBI fraud line...going to get to the bottom of this one way or another...

Dont i know it! I had Id theft from an employeer a couple years ago. that sucked enough. but having my money plain old dissapear not cool beans. I have had no red flags from her, I did a througho refrence and ect check before sending a deposit. Its standard for me to do that. Being in horses so long, i learned some hard lessons. Not the breeders fault at all in any of this. of that I am certain! The guy at the bank today wasnt much help but they were getting ready to close. *rolls eyes* but i will beon their butts bright and early when the doors open.

Good luck!

Was it a cash cheque?

scamperfarms · Jul 25, 2005

just a check from my bank...pay to the person it was made too...

*thinks* man i cant belive i am thinking about one of these payday loan peoples..anyone here ever used one of them?

wellingtoncats · Jul 25, 2005

How in the heck can somebody else cash it then????

Don't they have to show ID?

In theory yes they are supposed to show id. but alot of places are so lax on that crud now..*sighs*

heck my bank doesnt even check a date on my paychecks...i get my paycheck on wensday and its dated for friday (i work from home so they have to make sure ih ave it by friday so it gets here early) anywho steve accidently took it for deposit early TWICE and they never asked.

So other places I am sure do that stuff too

lillekat · Jul 26, 2005

oh sweetie I really wish I had something useful to say, but I don't. Just know that I'm thinking of you and hoping like hell it all works out real soon

mzjazz2u · Jul 26, 2005

First thing to do is get a copy of the check and see who cashed it. The bank has to give you a copy if you request it. You can tell a lot from a cashed check. Like where it was cashed, if it was put into another account and what account that was, and if it wasn't put into another account there should be some sign of an ID taken. If someone doesn't have an account at that bank the bank now takes a finger print to cash a check. Show a copy of it to the breeder and ask her if she recognizes the signature. I was in a similar situation years ago and turned out the persons kid signed and cashed the check. You just never know. Also, do you have a signed contract with the breeder? If so, (and you should) then you should have a signature to compare with. I think this is a breeder you can trust too but you know, people forget stuff. And everything is worth checking out. There is so much you can do on your own. But have you contacted the police too? If not, you should right away.

When I pay someone like that I use paypal all the time now. You can pay anyone with an email address that way and they gaurentee the payment from fraud up to $1000. Paypal isn't just for ebay anymore! And I think that breeder takes paypal too, if I remember right.

Thanks. Yup I have been in touch with the police. They want all the info from the bank which i will be getting here as soon as they open. as well as looking at the check...ect.

Hmm nope this breeder doesnt. The one i got my girls from does though, and i paid alot through paypal

I love pay pal

Since this the breeder is thinking about paypal tho

and yup i do have the contract i was going to use for signature stuff

mzjazz2u · Jul 26, 2005

Sounds like you're well on your way! I am really interested in seeing how this works out. And just FYI, you can still send money to someone even if they aren't signed up officially for paypal. I think it just makes it easier if they are set up for it.
