Puppy Broker is a scammer

4 years ago I purchased a 6 month old 2 lb shih tzu from Korea that was supposed to be 4 lbs as an adult. The puppy I received was indeed 2 lbs, but from the length of her hair, I would have put her at closer to mayby 10 weeks old. I was told to feed her a certain number of kibbles per meal but the poor girl was ravenous!! So I fed her more. She is now over 10 pounds and not fat... also she has had all of her teeth removed - due to bad breeding. When I reached out to the broker with questions, she never ever answered me. This broker's name is Autumn Elizabeth Cheung. Please save your money and purchase through a reputable breeder, or rescue a pup in need.

Autumn Elizabeth Cheung said she works very closely with you and you both post each other's dogs on multiple sites. You have even posted her name as a contact when advertising a dog!!

Guest

I’ve personally been in contact with others who were ripped off by ‘Betty’ and am so grateful they shared their stories with me, saving me from losing thousands to this scammer.

I was in contact with her last year about a puppy and got a bad feeling from her.

Thanks to all the good people trying to put a stop to her scam.

I hope everyone she’s scammed gets all their money back. And she gets what’s coming to her!

We ordered a beautiful Yorkie from them. They were very professional on time and when received our doggie it was the dog they advertise, told me before hand that they are brokers and most of their dogs are from Korea. This dog is healthy and has a beseautiful personalility. I will buy dogs from them again . Dan

I’m getting the same run around now. Did you ever get your dog??

Guest

A dog is not a ‘product’ for ‘Betty’ to scam people with. You’re review sounds very suspicious!!

Have you spoken to many other people who’s money she stole? I have.

Dajae Hpn

Our Yorkie has adapted to the other 3 Yorkies we have and she is very healthy, content and clever. We are so happy we got her and what a great Christmas Gift!

Guest

Right on Partner!

Sabrena Svh

Great ! We also were very happy , good service and friendly people.

They do care about their product. Telephone calls were answered in fashionable way and no pressure in doing business with them . Dog was more then what we expected.

Can recommend them . Will recommend them and a beautiful new dog !

Bettys Tea Cup Yorkies - Dog Review

Bettys Tea Cup Yorkies - Dog Review
Do not send these people money. Unless you go there in person and pick up a dog from Autumn Elizabeth Cheung (her fake first name) and her husband Calvin Cheung you will not only get a different dog but a very sick dog!!! She is associated with other dog scammers Betty or Joanne from Bettys Yorkies or Bettysteacuppuppies.com or the Instagram My Dream Pup. My Vet said that they are starving dogs to make them so tiny. Within a month of proper care your puppy will more than double in size because they withhold food. My puppy has had multiple health problems and looks nothing like her original photos. Never did! They should be charged with animal abuse and fraud!!! They trade photos and either these puppies don't exist or the same dog is sold to multiple parties!!! I have hired an attorney and notified the authorities. Autumn has since changed her contract and phone number on her Bellapup website! She doesn't care about the puppies they import from Korea and you will see from the papers that they are not properly vaccinated. She stopped all communications once she found out my dog came sick and I insisted this was a different dog. Her and her husband Calvin are criminals.

Mine “Stitch” died after a week of a 1cm stomach ulcer. They are claiming that their vet hospital in Korea, “Dream Veterinarian Hospital” found him to be healthy 24 hours before his flight.

How did this “legitimate” veterinarian hospital not find a 1cm stomach ulcer. After suffering for days in pain, and trips to the veterinarian, he passed away. He refused to eat because his ulcer was so painful. I bottle fed him chicken broth for 3 days trying desperately to revive him, watching him in so much pain, and dying was so tragic and traumatizing.

He died a week after I got him. They have tried to say this was a “hypo” attack aka a hypoglycemic attack. I had a vet disprove that. He was given a safe, warm, loving home, full of clean toys, blankets, and a soft, plush bed, and given the best small breed puppy dog food money can buy.

I showed them a preliminary autopsy, which clearly shows that this is genetic. They ignored me for a week, after I first sent the preliminary autopsy. And are still not trying to give me my money back. I would never be comfortable accepting another dog from them.

After reading how many times they have done this, it’s incredible that they act shocked upon being confronted. I want to make sure that they never have the chance to do this to anyone ever again.

Feel free to contact me if you have more evidence against them. Sincerely, Lauren Bambara Bambaralauren@***.com

Hello, I'm looking to build a case against Autumn Elizabeth Cheung and her husband Calvin. They sent me a terribly sick puppy that ended up being a completely different breed than what she indicated and represented in pictures.

I will not elaborate on her whole scheme because it is truly criminal including internet fraud and animal cruelty. She told me that she is a broker for Betty's Yorkies and runs her own "puppy boutique" outside of Chicago Illinois called Bellapup.com.

If you were defrauded by this individual please let me know because our dog is no longer with us. HPinedo1512@***.com.

I agree!! I had the same experience.

I Almost didn’t get a Dog. I was hounding them. Although they were sure to get their money promptly, it took forever to get my dog after hounding them so many times and threatening legal action. Then they send me a dog that is twice the size that was on the picture of Instagram!!

I knew something was up when I asked for a recent photo of the Dog and they hesitated.

Never again! These people are crooks!

Guest

you must be working for joanne pedram, sarah abitol, reza pedram, or are friends with them. you must have not done business with her.

she sends the wrong puppy or never sends them at all. she lies about having puppies who are ready to fly. DONT BELIEVE HER SCAMS!

all these people have been reported to the police, the FTC, econsumers.gov, and also the canada fraud department. please do research and don't even consider doing a deal with her.

Bettys Tea Cup Yorkies - Maltese Dog Review

Bettys Tea Cup Yorkies - Maltese Dog Review
We bought a very expensive beatiful perfect little Maltese girl. The breeder was kind of rude but overall helpful. Our little girl died at the age of three due to liver issues which seems to be common of her dogs. I've seen far to many ppl who lost their dogs at very very young ages but outside of her 1yr health guarantee which is pretty intense to even get a new puppy if yours dies that soon. Anyway the dogs are amazing but expensive. Like be stuck paying huge vet bills and have a very short time with them.

Bettys Tea Cup Yorkies - Dog Flippers Review

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Autumn Cheung AKA Elizabeth Leigh Cheung and Calvin Cheung are also associated with Bettys Yorkies, Bettysteacuppuppies.com and Bellapup.com and Bellapup_teacup and my_dream_pups on Instagram. These people are posting gorgeous dogs on these sights and either these dogs do not exist or they sell one dog to multiple people as in my case so when I received the wrong dog shipped to me they said I must have gotten the wrong dog then the dog became very ill and almost died! With mounting vet bills these people suddenly fell off the face of the earth. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT WIRE THEM ANY MONEY they are complete scam artist along with Joann from Bettys Yorkies. Report these people to the authorities!!! Pure greed!

SCAMMER teacup puppies, WWW.TEA-CUP-YORKIES.COM, Betty's Yorkies

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Betty's Yorkies started dealing majorly with Lieta last year (2014). By reselling Lieta puppies, Joanne Pedram (owner of betty's yokies) starting making lots of sales and was able to grow big and gained popularity. She was selling many puppies due to very high demand after selling to a celebrity and was requesting many shipments without paying them in full; saying she cannot send too much money overseas due to tax reasons and can only pay graudually. Since we thought of her as a good business partner and also a friend, we trusted her and sent many puppies thinking she will pay us but we were wrong. When we requested to clear balance last month, she refused to pay them all (only paid portion of the bill) and was telling us many lies. Few days ago, she posting on her facebook notifying she changed the breeder, blocked us from all her social media and messenger, and started buying puppies from a pet store who deals wih puppy mills. Betty's Yorkies only think of puppies as tool to make money. She never sincerely cares for her clients or dogs happiness. She refers her clients as "rich dumb followers"! When the puppy gets sick at clients home, she tells them not to bring the puppy to the vet because she is afraid her clients might think she sold sick dogs and don't want any bad reviews posted online. Some puppies were left untreated and died without a single vet visit. How can a person be so cruel to innocent puppies? She just says she can give new puppy and demands replacement from us. What does Betty's Yorkies do in the middle then? Make tons of money brokering puppies and just sit and collect money? 90% of what Betty's Yorkies told us was lies. She made so many rumours and pretending she did nothing. If you've ever tried your best to help/work with someone but later was so regretful of your work, you might understand how we feel now. We do not wish to work with Betty's yorkies anymore. Ever since we realized she was lying and is careless for puppies but only money, we did not want to. We told her to work with whoever she wishes as we do not care but pay of what she owes before dealing with others but now, she is telling us and also others that she owes nothing to us. We tried our best to raise these pupies so they can all go to new family but Betty's yorkies was thinking totally different as what we thought she was. She never loved puppies; she only loved money our puppies brought to her. It was very stressful and disapointing but we are glad we finally know the truth now. We are writing this as we cannot forgive her for scamming us and wish there are no more victims from now on. We wanted all true animal lovers to know the truth about Betty's Yorkies and Joanne Pedram shoud be shameful of herself. Betty's Yorkies probably is busy selling puppies with her lies at this moment too. All written above are all true and you can see/compare most of puppies Betty's yorkies sold are from our website. www.lieta.co.kr/eng

Lieta is selling sick dogs and I warn all buyers not to deal with him. He plays off as my associate but he is a korean scam artist. DONT DEAL WOTH HIM !

Betty P Rhz

Typical for everyone to hate on us for trying to make everyone happy. I guess it’s true what they say.....

Listen people I’m fed up of all these lies and these haters making up *** for attention. We have been in business for over eight years. Never got sued or arrested or anything concerning the law. As soon as someone waits too long for what they paid they are quick to hit social media pages and rant about how they didn’t have a good experience and that we took there money.

Wake up people ! These are live animal. We have to obid by rules and regulations set by airline companies and the safety of the puppy is our priority. If you paid 5-6-7 thousand for a quality dog then please be patient and we will send you what you paid for.

Call us and we will answer the phone. Email and we will return the emails. Ask for pictures and videos and you wil receive updates regularly of the puppy purchased. It’s simple , we aren’t employing 10 plus employee.

This is a family business , my partner Kevin and I do our best to please everyone.

Unfortunately there will always be haters ( anonymous I’m talking about you please contact me if your actually 100% about everything let me help you ). Best regards , Betty

I wish people will do they home work before buying from these scam artist you should know there is no such word the such thing as teacup anything tiny ,mini, micro whatever you call it!!! Who the *** would buy a dog for 5500,6000,10000 Bucks??

Go to a reputable breeder who breeds for health who breeds for great temperament who breeds for beauty not for money my dog was all of what I described and he was not 7000 bucks!! Go on the AKC kennel club in look for a registered show breeder!!

Research them to see if they are a good fit if so you may have to get on a waiting list they don't always have puppies they breed once or twice a year!! The scam artist always have sick puppies that's a red flag!!

We got scammed 6 weeks ago from Betty/Joanne and her sleezy boyfriend. They will not produce pics or videos yet say they have the dog.

We were promised a 5 day delivery but here we are 6 weeks later with nothing but excuses.

My silly husband against better judgment sent them $5500! Do you suggest we call the number you posted above?

Guest

Autumn Elizabeth Cheung is a scammer/broker. She lies and takes your money and you get a dog nothing like the one you actually paid for.

Guest

Autumn Cheung from BellaPup or Bellapup.com is another scam artist. She works with Betty's T-Cups.

Be very careful. She will take your money and never contact you again!!

Plus they borrow each other's pictures. These dogs do not exist!!!
