DaCoasta Goldens Reviews
Western union payment for a golden retriever. was to ship on sat oct 10th with free shipping. was emailed that shipment would not be until the 11th for free shipping. waited all day but no confirmation of shipment. spent the next 3 hours telling my 4 year old that there was no dog coming after she waited for 2 days to see her new play mate. people like this need to be punish for ripping us off and disappointing small children.
I'm glad others reported about this Scam Company. As they always say, "If it seems too good to be true . . ." They have great pictures and a great website. When I saw the reports, I asked for references. They said they list their references on the site. They only have made up names and stories. If you run the address they list in google, you'll see it's in the middle of a downtown area, not the rolling hills and fields they show on the site. I asked for business references, Chamber of Commerce or what their local police department was so I could call to check them out and the stopped communicating with me.
Don't be fooled - don't send money!
I recently bought a dog off the internet from a company called DaCoasta Goldens. THIS IS A SCAM!!! I was told to go to Walmart and do a wire transfer to another Walmart in Alabama. When I tried to call them to discuss this the phone had an extremely poor connection and I was not able to hear the individual. I have never receved the dog I had purchased. The dog still shows as being available online.
We are an ederly couple and feel so violated by this action. We will be contacting the states attormey regarding this matter. Please don't fall victum to this SCAM.
If we didn't pay, he said the puppy would go to the pound. We told him to go back to breeder since this was not disclosed to us and we PAID IN FULL. (We have been taken) Breeder will not return call, has totally ignored use. We have all text messages which and paperwork on PAID IN FULL, FREE SHIPPING, ETC. Be careful, will be contacting States Attorney/Mayor of Florence; along with the Pinal County Sheriffs office. When I told shipper he said, wait let me see what I can do. Shipper wanted us to do a Walmart-to-Walmart money transfer, which is immediate cash for them. Which we were stupid to do when we paid for her. Further information on shipper We asked for his name via text because he wouldn't speak with us says his phone was cutting out. I have all documentation and the women he wanted us to give our debit card number too. Funny both individuals out of MD (Maryland) funny how the shipper operates out of Maryland; but went to Florence, AL to ship our puppy. Unfortunately, RED LIGHT when up when they wanted more money and wanted it ASAP. We trusted this breeder, look at their website what statement they make that they are NOT into breeding dogs for profit, right. Also the testimonies are FAKE, look at the baby in Paige's statement and then look at Kips the golden retriver comment; both the same baby. There is so much more..BEWARE. They sent us paperwork stating 30 day FUL REFUND IF NOT HAPPY OR within 72 HRS. I sent an email requesting refund be sent through Walmart-to-Walmart so we can get our cash back immediately. I asked that they notify us when complete. We have heard nothing whatsoever. We will keep looking for an English Cream Retriever; but will go to the breeder and not have puppy shipped.
I am writing to make you aware of a so go breeder in Florence, AL (DaCoasta Goldens), recently my husband and I lost our pup to severe HD and the cost for total hip replacement was out of our reach ($20K), so we decided to look for another pup and I was surfing the web and came across DaCoasta Goldens (www.(Dacoasta.com) the female pup named Chloe which is marked sold was supposed to be ours. We had a dialogue with the owners and exchanged text messages and had 1 conversation, yes only 1 about choosing a female puppy. We were sent paperwork and sent the money for her which included FREE shipping. Well, today, October 4th when we were to receive our girl at Sky Harbor Airport we received a text from the shipper only 4 hrs after being told by the breeder that she had been picked up at 10:00 am and on way to airport, you will need to send an additional $799.00 for insurance, we were like what, and this text came from the shipper Fedex-petmovers.com. We tried calling and unfortunately his phone would break up and then he would text us, he would not speak to us. I then placed numerous phone calls to DaCoasta Goldens owners, Claude and Shontil to find out what the heck was going on and after many, many calls no answers.
We are presently out of our money; but in the paperwork they sent us they give a FULL REFUND within the 30 days or 72 hrs., well we never received our girl, so I sent an email requesting this…Oh yes the shipper texted me and said if we don’t pay they (he) will take the pup to the pound and if anything happens to it not their fault. I said to him do not threaten us, he said then you need to send the money ASAP. He gave me information to contact his person to debit our account. I told him we would be contacting the Alabama States Attorney/Mayor of Florence, AL and authories here in AZ.
We then received another text to hold off on doing anything and see what they can work out with breeder, well no call or should I say text back. Tomorrow the States Attorney and the Mayor of Florence, AL will be notified and our local authorities here in AZ so they can contact the authorities in Florence, AL of fraudulently taking money from us with no intent to deliver our pup and possibly from other people or the worse case scenario scamming additional monies from them and then never receiving their puppy.
Our heart is sadden by such deceitful people, since we wanted a new pup since the passing of ours… I am posting this for others who may fall victim of such scams that take advantage of individuals.
