Purchased an African Grey Parrot from "Breeder". Paid 500.00 from Zelle app, and another 450.00 on cash.me app. Signed ownership contract, received tracking number.
Then received email from swiftshippingsystems who was supposedly the courier 4 the bird stating i needed to pay 1440.00 for a refundable pet insurance as required by law, in which they requested i make that payment in two 700.00 payments to 2 different names vua western union.
I of course realized at this point it was a scam. I am in the process of seeing if my bank can pull back funds from this scam breeder as i know they are part of the scam as well, considering they offered 2 pay half my shipping if i pay the other half cause my bird was sitting in "Illinois".... hope these idiots get caught!!
