My parents spent £1,100 on a purebred Maltese – what they got was a terrible wannabe | The Sun
A WOMAN has shared how her parents forked out £1,100 for a purebred Maltese only to discover they had fallen victims to a scam.
The TikToker explained her parents thought they made a good choice with the popular dog breed- but their pup turned out to be something completely different.
TikTok user @squidsum shared pics of what an actual purebred Maltese looks like wi the caption: "What my parents thought we were getting when they spent $1400 on a pure bred Maltese."
She can be seen turning the camera to herself before pointing it at the -now- family pet, which is adorable but definitely not a purebred Maltese.
"We got scammed," she wrote in the caption.
Some TikTokers were quick to note that the dog is cute even if it's not a purebred while others shared their scam stories.
