WEST MICHIGAN â The Better Business Bureau is warning consumers about an increase in pet scams that are claiming to be based in West Michigan.
Fake addresses are giving consumers false confidence in their purchases, according to a news release Wednesday.
âIncreasingly we are finding fake websites using addresses that donât exist, or picking real addresses they donât have a connection with,â said Phil Catlett, president of the Better Business Bureau Serving Western Michigan. âThese consumers think they are buying from a local company, only to find they have been scammed and have lost any money they paid.â
