Pet Parents: Please Beware of SCAMMERS!
Read carefully. There are already scam posts on here by people who post spam every time.
Do Not contact any “lost pet rescue” groups scammers specifically mention are on INSTAGRAM or MESSENGER. This is a known scam. They are scams to take your money they say is for “software”, compromise your account, and spread spam. They will not find your pet.
Also don’t correspond with anyone who claims they found your pet and wants you to contact them and send them your cell number to get codes to “prove you are real”. This is also a scam tactic called the Google Voice Scam to take control of your account and your phone. Ask for a picture if they claim to have your pet and make sure it is a new picture they took.
If anyone calls you, please be very cautious as to the legitimacy of the caller. Other pet parents have been known to receive scam calls at all hours of the night with the caller claiming they have their pet when it is a scam. Have the caller send you a picture as proof.
Additionally, the posts from “FELICITY GERARD”, and “TERESA KYRE ALVEREZ” are known SCAMMERS and are being reported. These scammers comment on EVERY post that they found your pet or want you to message a fake search team on Instagram. Do not contact anyone as they say to and do not send them your cell number. This goes for anyone who directs you to a group on Instagram.
Really hoping Kong comes home soon!
