Police from the Russell detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) asked people to think twice before transferring money online after the incident, in which almost $900 was transferred to a seller for a dog that never arrived. The victim first responded to a Kijiji ad for puppies on November 21, and sent e-transfers ahead of an expected pick-up date.
