Lake County Animal Shelter put out a warning on Facebook regarding scammers using lost pets to get money from you. The scammer goes through Facebook posts and Lost Pet sights to get information on lost pets. The scammer then contacts the owner telling them that they have found the pet and will return the pet in exchange for gift cards. The shelter wants you to know the scammer does not have your pet and they probably aren’t even in the country. BEWARE!
