I just wanted to let people know that someone tried to scam us by saying he wanted to by a bull. Just thought I would let you know to keep an extra eye open on something that looks or sounds weird. Trisha

Hey Trisha, Would you mind giving a little more detail about this so others can tell between the authentic potential buyers versus the scams out there.
Thanks Sherry

The person was buying a bull for his wife for her birthday. He seemed to know what he was doing by asking for pictures and what we had available. Everything was done by emails. He then said that he would send a certified check and that his shipper he had would take care of all the details. Then his shipper needed the money sent to him by western union to united kingdom cause he had a urgent meeting there. From then on things looked just like every other scam. The check was not a certified check it was a fake. It did take a couple of days before he quit calling. From a telephone service. Like every other scam he just wanted us to deposit the money and run to him with the "extra funds" It is to bad there is nobody out there trying to catch these people. Or not in my area they don't seem to care. Hope everyone is enjoying the winter, spring is almost here!!
