Too good to be true???

JamJar · Feb 24, 2015

i just found this apparent breeder/shop online and i called up and it sounded pretty genuine.. i then browsed the webpage and see a hyacinth macaw for sale for $450 and thats why I'm thinking its maybe too good to be true or maybe a type error??

Everyone wants a big blue, or a black palm, and the scammers know it.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Definitely too good to be true. Especially from a breeder or pet shop. Just my opinion...

Holy crud, yeah, I would guess that's a scam as I've seen those go for up to 10,000 dollars.

IT'S A SCAM, stay away. This has been my experience, I have seen these websites on Gumtree, I'm always report it but as soon has Gumtree remove the scammer website, the scammers replace it with another.
They download photos off a legit website and pass them off has their own.

No I never lost any money to these scammers. Last time I looked on one of these fake websites Hyacinth Macaws were going for $1500 us and B&G Macaws were $1000 us. CAG $750.

Report these scammers to the authorities.

This sounds like a great deal for me! I can use some of the money I just inherited from an offshore relative that I never knew! Paid all the processing fees and just waiting for the direct deposit!

Yeah i did think this was the case

juuuust checking haha

I'm off to the Bird Market tomorrow to see if i can find a little baby grey that i can put a deposit down on

Found this recently in my area. Most probably a scam, but I couldn't resist emailing and asking why they are rehoming.
