You guys know I sell birds and eggs. One of the places I advertise is on Craigslist. Tonight I was contacted by a scammer.

I'm no retard, so no big deal. However, some of these scams seem innocent enough. Some have a friendly human being on the other end knowledgeable in whatever you have for sale.

Don't take a check. Don't take a cashier's check. Don't read anyone a code you were sent to verify you're real. If someone wants to buy a few dollars in goddamn eggs, fuck them if they can't bring you cash without some kind of runaround.

Use your brain. Don't get your identity stolen or your phone hijacked or whatever Dinesh is trying to scam out of you.

Man I found someone who had Gambles Quail chicks on CL. However Covid happened and couldnt get in touch with them. Got everything needed for an enclosure too...

I can still find regular quail but I really wanted a pair of gambles.

That'd be cool. They're pretty tiny and don't tolerate being packed together, but it'd be great to show off.

"More", but not exclusively. You'd have to try one!
