🚩 Red Flags - Signs of a Scam
Unusually Low Prices
If someone is offering Maine Coon kittens for under $1,000, it's almost certainly a scam. Quality Maine Coons from reputable breeders cost $2,500-$4,500+.
Pressure to Pay Immediately
Scammers create urgency. We will never pressure you to send money immediately or claim "someone else is about to take this kitten."
Wire Transfers or Gift Cards
We NEVER accept wire transfers, Western Union, MoneyGram, or gift cards. We accept certified check, bank transfer to verified account, Zelle, or cash in person.
Won't Video Call
Legitimate breeders are happy to video chat and show you kittens live. If they refuse or make excuses, it's a scam.
Too Good to Be True
Perfect kittens available immediately, shipping included, unrealistically low prices - if it sounds too good to be true, it is.
No Contract or Vague Terms
Reputable breeders provide detailed contracts with health guarantees. Scammers avoid contracts or provide vague, unprofessional documents.
