Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
And I thought I was a bright person, that I would notice a rip-off artist from a mile away. But they're all so clever, tugging at heart stings!!I'm not quite sure how it happened but it did.

I'm assuming there's 2 of them, An ad was placed on an internet 'classifieds' section (in South Africa it was 'Gumtree'), requesting a new home for a Blue and Gold parrot. My son has always wanted a parrot and his birthday was coming up. I fell for it.

The sellers only wants a good home for the parrot so requests only payment for the transportation and then emails me saying that the parrot is at Rocket Pets ready for transportation. I run around like a fool trying to get the money trasferred, only to be told by Rocket Pets, that the airline needs insurance, equavelent of double the money, it needs to be transferred and that the bulk of it will be refunded once the parrot has been trasportated. ALARMS BELLS!!!

Still I run around like a bigger fool getting the money trasferred and then NOTHING!!!I called to find out about the bird and at first I was told that because of the swine flu, all animals have been grounded. When I called 2 days later, I was told "I'm sorry to tell you, there is not parrot" and the call was disconnected.

So please be warned: They make it sound as if the animal is desperatley unhappy and that you're the only hope for a good home.
