A St. Johns County mother says she’s at the center of an online scam but has nothing to do with it. She says her Facebook profile was hacked and now people believe she’s selling puppies, saying they’ve already lost their money.
ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. — It went from concerns over not having an account to something much bigger. The local mother said someone showed up at her property ready to receive a dog that doesn’t exist.
“Someone impersonating me and stealing money from others is very concerning and the fact I can’t seem to stop it is bothering me a lot,” Lisa-Lee Thomas said.“I got a phone call from numerous friends saying, ‘I didn’t know you were selling puppies’ and I said I’m not selling puppies, what are you talking about?” Thomas said.
Adelman just lost her dog of 16 years and wanted to get a new puppy, even buying a crate for the drive up to St. Johns County. She’s lost about $54 because luckily, the other payments wouldn’t go through.“I had my heart set on getting a new baby because I lost mine. Not only did I lose my money I lost my hope,” Adelman said in tears.
“I felt like I took the right precautions and protected my account with my family and friends but it wasn’t enough,” Thomas said.
