But to be honest the target demographic of birding is typically older people who might not be as familiar with internet scams like that. Frustrating to not be able to claim much as it's a foreign company. Hopefully we can allow get major social media platforms to stop allowing this shit.

Since even regular bird feeders are kinda pricey, and the bootleg ends up roughly of similar construction and strength, I figured it was just rolling the dice. Since I've never had an original, I had no idea whether this was the same size just without the motor, battery, or sensors components. Of course, seeing the original in the hands of youtubers finally confirmed it's not the same size, lol.

I accidentally clicked a sponsored link in google for a high end sweater company (instead of clicking the actual company’s site). Website looked the same as the real site and prices were the same which is why i didn’t know i was on a scam site. Thought something was strange when PayPal was an accepted payment form but was really scratching my head when DHL was shipping it. I shipped directly to my sister since it was a gift and when she received it had no branding and looked and felt like the cheapest sweater in the world. After arguing with the company for a few days where they offered to credit $25 of $100 I disputed to PayPal who refunded the full amount.

Chris, I wish I had seen this video BEFORE I got taken in by this exact scam via FaceBook. The company that ad linked to was "Lurtus" but like the others you named on your video it used the hilarious squirrel proof videos of the Yankee Flipper to sell the inferior knock off . It took weeks to come (obviously from China) and arrived with no motor, battery, or sensors! Ugh! I'm embarrassed that I bought two (a 'special ' price if you got two rather than one!). I am writing to the company contact re return and refund. We will see whether I get anything back. In the meantime, I found your video and just ordered a legit Yankee Flipper to replace the fake ones. Thanks SO much for posting the video warning.

You have explained my exact predicament. I thought the video and product was so funny I ordered two! The company I ordered from was called Reserivation and it took three weeks to arrive supposedly from Spain. The products I got were just as cheap as you described. Filing a complaint with PayPal took me nowhere. After many back and forth responses the company said they would refund but I would have to pay the shipping back to China, which they said would be very expensive. I then appealed to my credit card and hopefully will get more help than reserivation and PayPal offered.

I had an original Yankee Flipper. Love it. Had for several years. It stopped working because the battery would not hold a charge anymore. Tried to order a new battery but the phone number I had no longer accepted calls. It seemed the brand was sold. Then I fell for the add on FB and bought one with lower price. It was a piece of junk! Very disappointing! Still have my old original which needs a new battery.
Yes I was a victim of a Facebook scam add. The add was for an animated Jack O'Lantern. The video was very cool with great animations and sound from the Jack O'Lanterns. There were 3 different types and I ordered one of each. What I got were three cheap cackling pumpkins. Nothing like what was in the add. I tried to send them back for a refund no luck. Reported them to PayPal no help. Will never buy any shipped product from Facebook again. Local market place is still useful where I can go and inspect before buying but nothing mail order ever.

Hi Chris, unfortunately this type of counterfeit items is very common, I cannot have a bird feeder because between my cat and a wild falcon anything flying around my garden has a very short lifespan. I am sure that birdfeeder would work keeping the cat off but from the eight feet garden fence and the trees in my garden my cat can reach any part of my garden and nothing is safe, the biggest thing it has brought in is a white duck that was twice the size of my cat, apart from the bird supposably locked up so that bird flu cannot be transferred I just don’t know how it got it into my garden and then into my house but I heard a racket from my front room and when I looked in to see what was going on I was met with this duck flying through the air with my cat hanging for dear life, the other live animals it has brought in, are two live rabbits, a pigeon lost count of the hedgehogs and a wild weasel and I needed a hospital visit after that had bitten me and did not want to leave go.

I saw your video after I purchased a “Droll Yankee YFM Yankee Flipper Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder with Weight Activated Rotating Perch” off of Walmart’s website, which sold for $40.13. I thought, “Hey, great deal!”, with the after thought of, “Too good to be true”. But, I ordered it anyway, maybe there was a typo in the price? Who knows. I should have paid closer attention to the seller info. When I got the tracking info via email, that’s when I noticed that it was coming from China, not from the company in Connecticut. Very irritating. Now I’ve bought things from China in the past, like on Etsy etc, but I have real issues with knockoffs, and companies that sell their product using another company’s product as bait, trademark and paten infringements aside, it really broils me. And of course there’s the fact that it was going to take 2 weeks to get here…that should have been my first clue. I know better. Needless to say, I called Walmart’s customer service to let them know how very illegal it was to sell knockoffs on their website. I will be returning the bird feeder when it comes in. So glad you posted this video

I ordered a pair of sunglasses through Amazon once. Apparently, the model I was ordering was out of production, so most other sources didn't have them. I ordered the black sunglasses, but when they arrived from China, they were white. I reported, through Amazon, that I didn't get what I wanted, and asked if the seller had them in black. I got an email back saying I could get a 10% discount on the sunglasses I had received. I said before we talk about any kind of price, I'd like to know if I can get the sunglasses in black. I got another email offering me a 50% discount. Again, I replied before we talk about price, I'd just like to know if I can still get the black sunglasses. They responded with an offer for a 90% discount. I'm pretty sure they shipped white instead of black and hoped I wouldn't object, and I'm pretty sure they didn't want to pay the return shipping. I gave the sunglasses to my sister for Christmas, and I'm pretty sure Amazon refunded the entire purchase. I have gotten a few other things from China and never had a problem, other than delays in shipping.

Separate from the fact that it's a stolen concept/videos/design etc, how do they profit from something like this in the first place? Is it because purchasers don't bother doing a return or claim for not getting the advertised product? If that's the case, it shows how these kinds of bad practices are enabled only because of people's inaction.

It would cost more than the purchase price for me to return it.

Of course. But if we're not in it together. Or exposing them, nothing changes. Notice deal sites and forums are few and far between now. This manufactured shortages hasn't brought cheaper, faster, and longer lasting products. If you complain they will ban comments or remove them outright. Often American companies sell defective and substandard products. Knowing people won't return it. How businesses run Us now?

See my comment above. I sent them an email EVERY DAY. They came back with lame excuses. Today, I contacted PayPal and lets see what happens now...I also sent them HandyDadTV 's video.

There is a saying in China. "If you can cheat. Cheat."

I’ve heard that, but it’s not a direct translation. They’re not all cheats.

The Chinese are blind to ethics in the name of profit. The typical shopper is blind to logic in the name of savings. It's a match made in heaven! The real culprits are Facebook and Amazon for allowing it to continue.
