Don't ya' just love all those scam emails that call your horse an item, ask you what the final price is and if it is in working order. You know darn well the majority of them have never even read the ad. They just send the same form email out to everyone that places an ad. Just hoping some poor uneducated first time internet user will fall for the scam. They are just horrible.

I know what you mean. I just got an email scam from a guy who said he wanted to buy my Kiger Arab filly. I asked him his name, phone number, location, reason for buying and where was he going to keep her. His reply was a fake name (no surprise there) His phone number was to a cell in New Jersey city. He did not tell me where he was located. The filly was for his daughter (age 5) and that he was going to keep it in his garden. When I replied that there was no way in HECK I would sell a dead dog to him......he took offence. Some people are so stupid. At least if your going to pull a scam then learn what the heck your talking about. Of course, I immediately emailed a copy of it to the scam hotline at Interpol and then forwarded that information to him. Surprise, surprise....I no longer got a reply from him. Gee, I wonder why? ? LOL!!!!!

bustedupcowgirl.com/scampage.htmlThe above link is the most hilarious "scam the scammer" people I've found. She's even dealing with horses and boy does she give the scammers the run around. It's pretty funny... But my web won't pull it up, I hope she's still there.

They don't ever take the horse, just the seller's money!
