They say “Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive”.
Web is an appropriate phrase for Humans and Animals United’s less than honest and transparent strategy by which they solicit “pledges”. Little do people know that there are many Facebook profiles and pages asking for “pledges” for the same shelter dog simultaneously.
In the eyes of those who do not know the magnitude of their web and this strategy it may appear the dog on one of those pages needs more “pledges”.
In reality there are a core group of profiles and pages always involved in this web. Along with lots of offshoots, smaller pages and of course shares they constantly ask for. All broadening their reach which means more “pledges”.
The end result is MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in “pledges” spread all over social media. Where it isn’t obvious to those who don’t detect their scheme. Dollars that FAR EXCEED what any good or reputable rescue would ever ask for to save a dog. So WHERE DOES THAT OVERAGE GO?
SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADIEU LETS MEET THE MAIN PLAYERS:
Rosa Fond aka Rosa Hilda Company & Rosa Hinkle
Founder of Humans and Animals United & Board Treasurer
Location: Brooksville, Florida
Barbara Queenbee ~ Real Name Barbara Smith aka Barbara Ranberg
Location: Wheaton, Illinois
Many talents include hiding behind fake profiles. Running Anabel Anderson and Jamie Mateo‘s profiles (See Below). So much for “I don’t hide behind anything or anyone”. WHY THE FAKE PROFILES IF YOU AREN’T HIDING?
Stephanie Zorn Lopez
Location: Broward County, Florida
Mother to the current Board Secretary of Humans and Animals United. Stephanie seems to float in and out of Facebook. According to sources Stephanie allows Rosa Fond to access her profile when she is MIA. Remember what we said about the person behind the screen and you don’t know WHO you are talking to. Be on the lookout for Stephanie’s change of demeanor because odds are its Rosa!
Jamie Mateo * FAKE PROFILE*
Location: Facebook Fantasy Land & Barbara Queenbee’s Slander Playground
FAKE PROFILE claimed to be a “networker”. Part of the Humans and Animals United crew. A profile used to raise “pledges”, slander critics of the rescue and sing Humans and Animals United’s praises to protect their online reputation. The latter an attempt to lend credibility to this rescue and trick donors.
Anabel Anderson formerly known as A.T. Anderson * FAKE PROFILE *
Location: Facebook Fantasy Land & Rosa Fond’s Creation
FAKE PROFILE: The “networker” AT Anderson existed on Facebook for years. Once the community detected who was really behind AT Anderson’s profile it underwent a face lift and sneaky name change. Now known as Anabel Anderson. Please see the additional screenshots wherein their team admits AT is Rosa (Fond) and more about this profile.
Anabel’s many talents are similar to Jamie Mateo’s. She exists to trick people. Raise pledges and slander any rescue critics.
“NETWORKING” PAGES CREATED BY HUMANS AND ANIMALS UNITED
The unsuspecting public and donors making “pledges” are likewise being tricked and scammed every single day by Humans and Animals United with the use of these Facebook Pages.
These pages dishonestly claim that the pages are run by “Unpaid Volunteers Not Affiliated With Any Shelter Or Rescue”.
THIS IS TOTALLY UNTRUE AND PART OF THEIR SCAM!
Pay attention to who pulls the majority of dogs posted on these pages from shelters and its NOT hard to see who is running these pages.
These pages highlight dogs at shelters Humans and Animals United have a rescue partnership agreement with. Mainly Miami Dade Animal Services and Rockdale County Animal Services in Georgia.
These fraudulent and misleading Facebook Pages often “BOOST” their page and posts using Facebook/Meta Ads. Most likely using misappropriated Facebook “pledges” or YOUR donations to do so.
No reputable animal rescue operates in this manner. Where intentional and deliberate dishonesty is part of a rescue’s strategy to raise “pledges”.
DON’T BE FOOLED! THESE PAGES ARE HUMANS AND ANIMALS UNITED
Rescue Me Miami Animal Shelter Facebook Page
Urgent Shelter Dogs Facebook Page
Shelter Dog Network Facebook Page
PUBLIC BEWARE!
These are the main profiles and pages you will definitely encounter in the rescue’s “pledge” raising endeavors.
There are NUMEROUS OTHER FAKE PROFILES highly suspected to be under the control of and created by Humans and Animals United. Ditto Facebook Pages.
Their FINANCIAL SCAM is elaborate, dishonest and designed to TRICK YOU into parting with YOUR MONEY by making a “pledge”. These efforts result in them receiving WAY MORE than most legitimate rescues would ever ask for to save a dog’s life.
