Maybe, you already have seen this and just deleted it but I thought I
would pass it on anyway so NO ONE gets screwed. I went to their
website to see if it even existed, and the website looks legit too but
they do not take a major credit card and that spells scam.

There are loads of fly-tiers in Kenya. What makes you say that this
outfit isn't legit?

If it's just that they don't take major credit cards , they probably
have cause for a libel suit against you.

Click a link on there site and it doesn't work. 99.9 % of reputable
businesses in the world (especially online ones) take CC's or paypal
or something like that. People that pulls scams will take a wire
transfer or money order not send you the product and run. Then they
show up again with a different URL. I took a class on internet
security in college and this certainly fits the profile. But since you
don't believe me. Go ahead and prove me wrong. Place and order, send
them money and we shall see.

I have no dog in this fight, but I'd offer that a legit-looking site
with flies at a few bucks a dozen ain't exactly the way most scammers
work, especially those from Africa. That said, I am not saying that
they are legit, only making the above observation.

Now, if they were claiming they had 20 MILLION FLIES!!! from their
brother-in-law's cousin, the ex-Minister De La Mouche for His Serene
Highness Dubululu Jones, the King of Kenya, who stole them when he was
fired and wanted someone REALLY HONEST to help him transfer them to a
Swiss bank for a half-share of the loot, providing you put up a mere
$10000USD as security...

....and as is my policy, no, I didn't visit the site nor do I have any
intention of doing so...
