If you get a friend request from a Larry Watson don't accept it. If you do accept it don't be fooled by him. He is making out he is selling Black Swans, White Swans, a wide range of Peacocks plus Parrots.

He is claiming to be from Weipa QLD but most likely Nigeria

DO NOT give him any personal details and DO NOT fall for it and give him any money

YOU WILL NOT see any birds or your money again

Please don't fall for it people.

I don't know anything about the advertisement above, but online scams are common and people purchasing online or getting contacts online need to be careful.

There is some good advice on the Government's ScamWatch website. The things they say about puppy ads seem to apply equally to poultry advertisements in our context.
