Almost got scammed - emailed me their bank account details, then received a WhatsApp message with different bank details - so googled them - scammers
Avoid at all costs, Their website look legitimate. But the reviews on there website with the Google logo look wrong, I put a couple of things in my online basket and want to click pay to see if there is a Safeway to pay and there's not. They say they will send you the bank details... Do not give them any money. If they were legit they would have PayPal Or some other way to safely pay with a guarantee.
I am embarrassed to post this but I really want to warn others about getting caught out. I recently wanted to buy some parrot eggs and possibly a bird. I did quite a bit of research and emailed various companies with lots of questions before going ahead and placing an order. Mika Birds Farm purported to be a company in the Isle of Man and used a specific courier to ensure the eggs were is great shape etc.
Unfortunately they were part of an elaborate scam based in Cameroon. Please don’t deal with the following:
Anton Bratanin
Paul Oboh Martin
Khalfaoui Mohammed
Prime Global Logistics
Mika birds Mika Parrot Farm - Exotic Birds
Teddy birds Mika Birds Farm
Ginas birds MIKA BIRDS FARM
Parrots Avairy MIKA BIRDS FARM
Phone number 0757039387
They are all the same person/people - they will take your money and you will NEVER receive anything.
I fell for it. Total scam. Red flags are:
Payment via bank transfer with no link.
Then the bogus courier asks you to pay an extra £100 "insurance"
The delivery day i was told the vehicle broke down
Day after, one egg had hatched and they wanted another £200 for "shots". Sent me a screenshot of a baby parrot (not african grey) from Google
The wording these use is not British
The emails have no company logos
The courier company doesn't exist but the give you a dummy consignment note and tracking number that you can only use on the link they provide.
DONT DO IT PEOPLE. Luckily the fraud team at my bank are trying to get some money back for me but I don't want anyone else to have to go through this.
These scammers are the same people on all the sites selling parrot eggs.
This is 100% a scam DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY TO THESE PEOPLE. THEY PROVIDE MULTIPLE PAYMENT OPTIONS AS THEIR ACCOUNTS ARE BLOCKED. THANKFULLY MY BANK DID CATCH THIS AND RETURNED MY MONEY. THESE PEOPLE THEN PROTEST THEY ARE LEGITIMATE AND TRY TO PERSUADE YOU TOUSE PAYPAL OR IBAN.
Folks this is Cameroonian scam. All these great reviews are Fake. They will ask you to use : REVOLUT PERSONAL, an online bank, to send money and email a copy of your receipt. They ship nothing, they sell nothing, just low life scammers.

I bought the model for my mother as a Christmas present as she has got an African grey and she loved it. Thanks so much
Almost got scammed by this company.
The email response and lack of answering my questions caused me to be suspicious. Its not a legit business. All they are interested in is getting your money but telling you nothing. Watch out.
SCAM SCAM SCAM THEY HAVE NO EGGS THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND THATS IT

They say they look after their birds, They say they are based in Isle of Man, spoken to a animal rescue place is Isle of Man for concern as wanted to buy a bird. They are NOT based there. Their reviews on their website have the Google sign but no Google reviews. A review on their website says “drove 2 hours from Annapolis” but that’s in America. Bank details on check out is a person not a company, and not on companies house as a registered business. Address provided is in the middle of nowhere
Major scam! Took the money and no item posted. Good job I got my money back through my bank
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.
Lost £600. Order never received.
They take the money and then will ignore you.
The company is not registered in the Companies House.
They sell egg incubator worth £29 for £190.
Scam.Scam.Scam.
Mika birds just wanna say thanks for African grey
