I searched the internet and found
http://www.amberpetalert.com/
The company promise:A Lost Pet Amber Alert will send poster alerts with photos, descriptions and details to Veterinarians, Animal Shelters, Animal Control, Media Outlets, Pet Stores and Neighborhood Watch Volunteers within a 50 to 200 mile radius of where your pet was last seen.
Hundreds to thousands of people will receive your LOST PET ALERT and will be on the lookout for your lost pet. They are also encouraged to make at least 10 copies of the poster to post in public areas.
I paid one hundred dollars to have alerts sent out within a 200 mile radius.
The alerts were never sent out, although the page did generate a 'lost' poster alert that I could print, nothing was actually sent out for my 'order'.
I have left messages and sent emails demanding proof and my calls/emails are ignored.
I want a refund or I will continue to post this and spread the word about this ripoff that takes advantage of heartbroken pet owners when they are vulnerable and willing to do everything to spread the word about their lost pet. This company takes advantage of the loss by taking your money and doing nothing more than posting a little line about it on their page. No cost incurred for mailings/fed ex like they 'claim'.
BEWARE OF THIS SCAM!!

I've been dealing with this company for 4 days. After paying for two alerts, making numerous phone calls, sending several emails, and chatting to customer support online... I still have nothing but a list of people who they SAY they contacted in Kalamazoo, MI. Unfortunately, I live in OKLAHOMA! (((Redacted)))

Company is a Scam

I had a nightmare experience with this company yet have been very polite in my dealings. I have requested a Recipient List multiple times. They will not provide such a list. Nor have any posters ever been sent out.
They will provide you with a refund when pushed. Most people do not verify that the posters have been sent out and so their pets remain lost. So it costs them very little to refund the money to those few who try to verify their actions. Do NOT let them get away with this. Thier actions are criminal and should be dealt with as such.
This company has also been the target of a news report by KTLA warning people. http://www.ktla.com/news/extras/ktla-missing-pets,0,600340.story
Please do not use this company and I urge people to make a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and to consider legal action.

" I want a refund or I will continue to post this and spread the word about this ripoff"
If she had politely explained her situation instead of complaint threats and lies then we would have processed it immediately.
