Scam or real offer

    hello everyone, I have just been contacted by someone offering dried and live specimens from the soloman islands. The butterflies he is offering are from the right area. But he is offering two Ornithoptera species, victoria and priamus, which I would love to get but it seems like a red flag as most people dont have access to those. Another red flag is that he contacted me first through email which is unusual. Do you think I should go through with this and order Ornithoptera priamus or should I just leave it alone.

    Since I would be extremely cautious in several ways:

    1) Without a proof photo of the pupae with the front cover of a current local daily newspaper I would doubt the presence of the pupae.

    2) Does the provider also offer the necessary CITES documents for export?

    3) do not forget: for import into your own country also requires appropriate CITES papers that must be previously applied for by the buyer / importer at the local authorities.
