I had previously posted a thread about a possible scam ad I had seen.
It was about a Mulga Parrot that was for sale.
the thread is still on here if anyone wants to get filled in from the beginning...

the doofus I spoke with on the phone(I'm a little angry right now,:mad::mad: so please bare with me) He claimed he was selling the Mulga parrot for $200.00, the reason he was selling him was because he was getting an Alexandrine Parrot the next day.
he had the Mulga Parrot only a week.
Now I see an ad from the very same doofus selling both birds for $800.00, claiming he is too busy, but loves both the birds.....yah right!
Obviously he is flipping these birds for a profit.

***Mayden-you had called it like you saw it!, and were right about it being a scam****

I have posted an ad warning people, but the ad has been delayed for
a few hours.

Theres heaps of bird scams going around Australia at the moment. They will advertise birds like this for cheap. You pay for the bird and shipping and all sorts of stuff. You never receive the bird, they say it died in transit (when in reality it never existed).

I replied to one the other day about an african grey. I could tell immediately from the email they sent me that it was a scam.

Gotta be careful :(

You can get breeding pairs for anywhere between $200-300. Not sure about hand tame, sorry :)
