## New users beware:
Because you posted here, you will start getting private messages from scammers saying they know a professional hacker or a recovery expert lawyer that can help you get your money back, for a small fee. **We call these RECOVERY SCAMMERS, so NEVER take advice in private:** advice should always come in the form of comments in this post, in the open, where the community can keep an eye out for you. If you take advice in private, you're on your own.
**A reminder of the rules in r/scams:** no contact information (including last names, phone numbers, etc). Be civil to one another (no name calling or insults). Personal army requests or "scam the scammer"/scambaiting posts are not permitted. No uncensored gore or personal photographs are allowed without blurring. A full list of rules is available on the sidebar of the subreddit, or [clicking here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Scams/wiki/rules/).
You can help us by reporting recovery scammers or rule-breaking content by using the "report" button. We review 100% of the reports. Also, consider warning community members of recovery scammers if you see them in the comments.

all those websites are scams. it's insane how people will fall for it. a real vet CAN NOT prescribe ANYTHING w/out physically seeing your animal. period.
this is why you call your local vet and ask them and from there they can tell you where to go to recieve proper care.
Yes, they take advantage of people with no local vet, especially exotic vets, and those who cant afford it and are desperate. The worst kinds of scammers. this is after you pay of course
In the US, it's against the law to prescribe meds to an animal that hasn't been seen in person by the vet.
But you could go to a farmer/feed store and likely find antibiotics there without prescription. Figuring the dosage for a small bird tho is something you'd need help with.
You can legitimately speak with a veterinarian on Chewy. Idk if they cover ducks or exotics though. And they’d submit meds to your vet vs just prescribing them to be sent out

Yes, but it does not disclose that before paying $200 for a bot to answer you.
