Has anyone else fallen victim to a young lady claiming to be from ,Mallow,Kanturk,Newmarket ,Tralee & even Castleisland looking for birds to be kept for her while she arranges to meet nearby but never shows up?Two separate phone numbers being used ,would love to start ip a public register but have passed her name and details around 20 or so friends and decent people in the business.

Is she somehow scamming you out of money?

Strange. What would be her objective?

To waste time..... So many people out there really have nothing better to do, seems strange, but it happens all the time and it's always a few usual suspects.
100percent people change they're numbers or ring from other phones, you may get wise and start asking where they're based and they'll tell you lies, very frustrating.
Its very annoying, hopefully they will give up.

How is she living in so many different places: 'claiming to be from ,Mallow,Kanturk,Newmarket ,Tralee & even Castleisland'? Mallow to Tralee is a fairly large area.

She advertises selling and says she's from Mallow ,Kanturk&Newmarket ,a very big area,last year she asked me to hold birds and never showed up having given her word 3 times she would.I had other birds advertised last week and was contacted from a different number and agreed to meet nearby ,I was there early and waited 30 mins yet nothing and when I rang she tried to lie saying she was there ,this time she said she was from the Castleisland side of Tralee,found out after it was the same silly little girl playing games ,have seen other people on Facebook giving out about her also selling dirt and again not turning up.Would love to name and shame her but its illegal ,she's with an idiot covered in tattoos

I had a similar experience. I think the lady has learning difficulties. And not realy malicious just innocent.

Anouther user was telling me about the lady you had hassle with and she is from Abbeyfeale, gets quite stern and used to be on this forum.She can get quite abusive on the phone but this is a girl ,well educated in her early to mid twenties with a boy racer boyfriend, you know the type 🙄.
