AKC? The bird is "restered" with the American Kennel Club? Isn't that for dogs?

...Is "cocoriki" supposed to be "cockatiel" or "kakariki"? O.o

[Aly]

The macaw is a dog..lol

[Laura]

It is definitely some sort of scam I am curious to see if they send you pics people like that should be reported I highly doubt the pic they have posted is there bird :rolleyes: akc now that is funny I didn't know you could register birds with the akc :p

[Bea]

Papaya Star fruit
Apples – remove the core. Beets – cooked

Be sure to remove the pit from fruit before feeding. The pit contains toxic properties. Apple seeds also contain a small amount of toxins and are best removed prior to feeding by coring the apple.Avoid feeding dried fruits and vegetables that contain sugar, salt and other additives. There are mixes available that have been organically grown and processed without these additives. I will be needing :
-Your Full Names
-Complete House Address
-Phone Number
-Nearest Airport to your house.

with this information i will be preparing for the shipping of the Lolisam and also i just need a new home for the bird and make sure you provide him care and attention and also provide him with good home and essential love him, i am asking just $1000.00 Adoption for shipping and papers works so please if that is ok by you then waiting for your mail asap. Thanks and God bless you.

I know this is a mega scamm. Who votes i mess with there head a little?

[nic bike]

Even if it wasn't a scam (which it obviously is) would you really want a bird who could say some of those words lol!

[birdieness]

yea i know but its no better then a macaw telling me ( excuss the language) to **** off. I think i would rather a bird say **** then that. I also would never actually get a hy. To big with a huge beak

[Aly]

??? Ok, first I thought they said 250..now it's 1000? Intresting...
And who in the world would teach their bird to say the word sh*t? That's not even funny.

[birdieness]

i'm with you there. I mailed her back giving a fake everything lol. I gave her a adress to a real house..... only it burned down about a week ago lmao. Fake number aswell. In the end i think i will let her know i knew it was a scamm and i hope she has rotten luck selling the fake bird

[nic bike]

It is things like this which still make cautious when I use the internet for shopping at least your giving her what she deserves for selling a fake bird:eek:.

[birdieness]

yea. my next email will prob be telling her i don't want a fake bird and she can take her scamm and shuff it. lol. Who knows.

[Tiki]

If someone did that to me, I would say...

Name: Mary Jane
Address: Down the Drain
Phone #: 911


:)

MEGA scam!!

BTW Birdieness, do you have a macaw? I saw a pic of one in the gallery, but he isn't in your sig. :)

Who would want a bird that says ****? (pardon my french) :rolleyes:


Ask her if it is named Figgy, as in the FIGment of her imagination that it is.

[Bea]

There's always scams based in Cameroon, and they usually involve rare, exotic birds. :p They continue to ask you to send them money for the bird, shipping, etc.

[Tiki]

Yes I know :rolleyes: Such an obvious scam. lol :p

[birdieness]

BTW Birdieness, do you have a macaw? I saw a pic of one in the gallery, but he isn't in your sig.

no i don't have one. He is my breeders bird. I have a ton of pics of him cause i'm so inlove with it. I love the pic in my gallery. My two tiels with charlie. He considered them him babies lol.

Gotta love scamms. You would think they would change the place now that they are found out.

[Tiki]

Aww Charlie is adorable, B&Gs are my favourite type of macaws, there is one I am re-homing for someone, her name is Grace. :)

I know a macaw who belonged to a truck driver and he would swear constantly. lol

I'ld call her out on it. I'ld say "I can make up my own birds thank you, I don't need yours"

[birdieness]

You know, they never did email me the pics i asked for. All i asked was for more pics. Never told them i wanted the bird(more like what bird cause i'm sure there is none) or anything. Never did get them. I mean, anyone can get pics off of google. No email back yet.

[Aly]

"I can make up my own birds thank you, I don't need yours"

lmao....isn't that so true...:p

[atvchick95]

and thats just one more reason if i do buy a bird off the net, it comes from my general area, No out of states, unless we've talked ALOT on the phone(like the breeder in S.C my b/f is hopefully getting his blue quakers from this summer) and If it's not in the U.S.A i won't even look at the add, since i'm in the united states, I only get birds from the united states

[Rosie]

This reminds me of when I saw a total scam on a website, advertising a African Grey for some ridiculous amount. I told them I was interested (Obviously knowing that it was a scam) and I got this back:

Thanks for your interest in adopting my african grey and also to took her out of this deem climatic condition in this country,LOUISBURG/CAMEROON.i am here for work on for the ministry of live stock and fishery in west African to see that this spieces of bird will not be over exploited to the world.i have been in CONGO.TOGO.IVORY CAOST and now we are in LOUISBURG/CAMEROON where we will spend about 4months here,so i want my little parrot to be in a lovely and caring home and also in a home that she will not be lonely since i am always occupied with work.her description is below and if you will read her description and like her then you will have to answer the following question after the description.

my African grey is talent to mimic is not restricted to human speech; they readily and skillfully imitate many other "human" sounds like microwaves, doorbells, telephones, coffee grinders and percolators, computer modems and water faucets, to name just a few.My Grey is prized as pets because of her ability to learn to speak like humans. she is very vocal in the wild, communicating with a large repertoire of shrill whistles, squawks, and screams, while flying or perching. she often mimic other birds and mammals. This is evident in many pet parrots, as they imitate cats, chickens, owls and other domestic and wild animals.
ANSWER THE QUESTION BELOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED.
ARE YOU MARRIED?
HAVE YOU EVER KEEP A BIRD BEFORE?
DO YOU HAVE KID?
DID YOUR KID LOVE BIRD?
ARE YOU WILLING TO TAKE CARE OF HER?

GOD BLESS YOU.
ROSITA LORIE


Strange, she's says shes in Cameroon as well...

[Tiki]

She will "bake" a perfect pet for you? How will she do that? So she'll make a dog or cat or bird in an oven for you? What an amazing bird!


:rofl:

[Tiki]

Oh, sorry to bring this thread back but this was sooo hilarious I had to share.

i have indiana ring nack porryt for sale whebn some bady want it call me pleas .it is my phon

[Bea]

:rofl: That's just ridiculous!

[Aly]

As ridiculous as it sounds to us, I'm sure someone will fall for it.

[birdieness]

well the last email was that she was going to "call" me with the " fake" phone number lol. I guess they caught on. I reported her on kijiji and the add is now gone.

[Tiki]

LOL! Glad she got her ad removed.

I keep seeing ads on Kijiji saying "DON'T FALL FOR THE HYACINTH SCAM" or "The Scarlet Macaws are a Scam!" very sad. :(

[Laura]

good for you for reporting her ;)

[Aly]

What I don't get is how people live with themselves scamming people like that. I am a believer in Karma. All that you do will come back to you. It might not be for a while or not in the same form but it will. Good or bad. I guess these people just don't care.
