Owner Of Missing Cat Transfers $300 To Scammer, Warns Others To Not Fall Prey To Their Demands
By Jonathan Yee - 25 Jan 2021, 11:02 am
Last month, the owners of a cat who went missing around East Coast put up a missing notice online. More than a month later, Homer has not been found yet.
While the owners have received information, they soon found that not everyone who contacts them does so with the intention of helping to find their pet.
One of the owners has warned other animal owners about the potential for scammers, after her brother was tricked by one into sending money to them.
After sending money over, the recipient failed to turn up at the arranged meeting point, and needless to say there was no cat.
The owners have made a police report.
