Chinese scam on free cats (6 photos)

The Chinese who wanted to adopt a free kitten from a nursery were faced with a scam in which a free kitten would cost them tens of times more if they bought a purebred one.





"What a simpleton you are"

Scheme on cats

Stores began giving away free purebred cats, British, Siamese and other breeds. But the one who takes the kitten must sign an agreement with the pet store, agreeing to become a client of this pet store.

Ostensibly to make sure that the free kitten is well fed. Otherwise, people rarely appreciate what they get for free. The motivation itself is good; purebred cats often need special care and food.



The Chinese really like this breed for its pure color.

But the monthly fee for “adopting” a British blue cat costs 500 yuan per month for two years. That is, the total amount of payments will be 12,000 yuan. Yes, it’s many times cheaper to just buy a kitten from a breeder right away!

And not only did the free cats come with a subscription, but also the food and litter in these stores were sold at inflated prices. A bag of cat food there cost 60 yuan more than on Taobao, where half of the Chinese buy their food.

Watch your hands





Just a miracle puppy, how can you not get something like this for free!

According to the rules of the contract, the contract cannot be terminated, that’s the funny thing. Even if the pet dies within two years, and there will be no one else to buy food and toys.

So some Chinese who lost their pet still had to continue making payments every month, although there was nothing left...



This has already happened to a client who “leasing” a Maine Coon for two years with payments of 800 yuan per month! The cat died within the first few months, but the store threatened to sue the customer if he did not continue to pay.



Also, the kittens in this store don’t look entirely healthy, I want to save them

At the same time, many cats and dogs from this pet store were neglected and unhealthy. The Chinese on social networks suspect that this is due to lack of care. Plus, you will need to spend more money on a sick animal, but where should you spend it? To the store with which you have an agreement.

In general, there are many methods of fraud in Asia. I also talked about swindlers who pretend in large areas to buy dogs for meat. And compassionate aunties rush to buy them.



There was also a big Chinese scam involving the ransom of poor dogs from being eaten; one dog was sold up to 5 times!

And then the dogs return back to the swindlers and they move on to the next square. But “cat leasing” is a particularly cynical method of deception that I have not yet seen in our country.
