Scams selling or giving away non-existent animals, often Puppy Scams.
by janicefarthing Sun Sep 11, 2016 3:40 pm
Their was an add posted on one of Facebook sites in Iowa pets for sale of two baby macaws. The persons location was in Des Moines Iowa at the time. It was posted. I commented that they were beautiful sept 3. No other posts just otf curiosity I looked at post again still no comments so I pm the person via Facebook messenger asking for more specifics as to cost birds health and so on. I did that Friday person responded to my pm on Saturday afternoon. Gave me all specifics of age what they eat daily personalities more pictures and asked if I wanted the male or female or by chance both . my husband and I said both since they had grew up together we did not want to separate them. I again asked what price she was asking she then stated we do jot sell our animals for profit we will only let them go to a home where they will get the love and attention they deserve. That they had just moved to Houston Texas and if I wanted to travel to pick them their cage food and accessories up or wanted her to set it up with a shipping company. That made me hesitant I asked for videos of them so I could see the birds personality. Which they tried to seen through Facebook messenger but they wouldn't open so they sent them directly to my email. I received 3 different videos of the birds. She then sent me a link to the shipping company. It is. http://www.homeland-delivery.com. I visited the web site it looks legit but still a doubt so I called the number listed for the company to see if they could give me a quote of cost which when answered it was buy someone with a foreign accent I could barley understand but I asked for quote from Houston TX airport to Des Moines airport and also asked of how I knew my birds were actually being shipped and I would get a refund if they were not actually shipped as I am not going to give my debit card number to just anyone. I went to their Facebook page and sent a friends request and it was accepted and. Shows they lived in Des Moines and cedar rapids area and just moved to Texas some pictures not a whole lot though. I ended our conversation with how shipping would be arranged and when and they did not respond back last night as it was around 9pm. I sent a message about shipping again and asking how the babies were doing today. They did respond after a bit and said they were good and that the shipper was closed today and she would call them to arrange for shipment tomorrow . no i know what macaws cost as I have owned them in the past. I know there are those good people out there that they dont want to charge an arm and leg they want the best for them. As I have done the same in the past when I did fostering. My family is very excited but at the same time dont want our hearts broke. How do i know any help is appreciated

Hello ,
Please post the actual email from the person claiming to have the birds, include the email address and telephone number if any. Be sure o remove your personal information before posting.

The shipping company http://www.homeland-delivery.com does not exist and the telephone number is a computer based VoIP number from McAllen, Texas. This means the person that answered the telephone could be located anywhere in the world that has high speed internet.

Stop all communications with this scammer and do not tell him that you know it is a scam. just go silent.

If you have any additional questions please ask.

It is ALWAYS a scam

It is a scam. The scammer does not have any pets to sell or give away. They only want to steal your money.

Buy or adopt your pet locally where you can physically see the pet and meet the owner face to face.

You could not understand the accent on the phone because the scammer is African located in Africa.

The website is a fake website.

Remove that person from your FB account and make your FB account private. Alert your other friends of the name of the scammer and to be cautious of new friend request.

Please post the email address of the fake seller and the email minus your personal information.

I literally am going through this same thing now. She deleted her post already but she had a parrot she needed to get rid of because she moved and she couldn't have him. She asked me a bunch of questions so that she knows if I'm "satisfactory " as she put it. Then she said she lived in Arkansas (I live in Wisconsin ) and that I could come get him or she could send him. I asked for every alternative and it was obviously, no. Then I told her I needed proof that it wasn't a scam and she sent me the website to homeland delivery and said that's where she would go through but when I asked her previously, she said she wasn't sure where she was going to send him through until she got my information so she could call around and see. This post helped me from making a big mistake.

We are dealing with this woman right now, I believe. Could anyone tell me what breed(s) of macaws the woman was trying to sell? Just want to see if this is the same scammer. So far everything sounds eerily similar. Even using Homeland-Delivery.

Hello CherryBomb77,
The breed of bird really does not matter because these scammers often use the same script with minor changes. If they want a payment via Western Union or Money Gram it is a scam, no exceptions.

Please post the emails that you received along with the email addresses and telephone numbers used and someone on the forum will check them for you.

ETA: If you were give his exact website http://www.homeland-delivery.com/ then it is scam and the best advice would be to stop all contact. Just go silent without saying anything.
