Type of a scam Online Purchase
They are a shipping company that the seller in Texas i purchased a parrot from used to send me a parrot by air. I paid the seller $1,000. I never received my parrot. The shipping company said i needed to pay $950 for insurance before I can go to the airport to pick up my parrot and once i get there i will receive 95% of that back in cash. I paid it. I was driving to the airport they called and said i need to pay $450 for cites permit, i paid it. Next they said oh it actually costs $850 so i sent $400 more the next day thinking that the poor parrot is going to die at the airport. But nope next they wanted $1300 more thats when i stopped. There was never a parrot. The seller and shipping company played me. I lost $2,800 in this scam.
