Posted - 19 Mar 2010 : 09:33:55 AM This is a scam that was going in with donkeys. Rescue a donkey from a belgium or other places with money up front.

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 4:55:03 PM Had to check as am so close to High Wycombe, but of course she was too good to be true. Glad we checked, she could have been some half starved poor little mare with the owners using a very glamourous photo! Slimey buggers arent they.... |

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 3:32:48 PM This is definitely a scam. Before I joined ALs I was looking at various arabs for sale and came across a "too good to be true" advert for a beautiful arabian mare. She was very very cheap. I emailed the advertiser who was very cagey. She was supposed to be in London, her horses were in the UK, she had gone abroad as her daughter was ill..... it was all rubbish. She wanted money upfront and she didn't own any horses. what's the old saying, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". But I had to enquire in case this mare was lame, or heading for the meatman... I really thought there must be something wrong with her.... glad I sussed it was a scam.

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 12:18:52 PM Cameroon ? isnt that africa? the only horses there would be pulling carts or eaten! seriously though, people who are gullible enough to think they can buy a SE black mare for £400 , would be seriously taken in ! |

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 11:54:41 AM Money up front will be a scam.
No way will someone want money upfront unless there is something wrong with it.
Keep well clear.

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 09:56:41 AM Its got to be a scam they want £400 up front, Do they think anybody would be silly enough to pay up front! |

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 09:46:33 AM Have had a response...thought she was too good to be true She looks much like my beloved Nazika, who I lost in April, hence emailing.... She is apparently in Cameroon, and is free to "adopt" the £400 must be paid up front for transport back to the UK< once paid she will be delivered.

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 09:43:51 AM Have found various ones and tried emailing one - the address didn't work. I wouldn't mind a companion for Eba so I could bring her home and use the free paddocks I have been offered at the end of the drive, and am smitten by blacks.
It doesn't stack up. B

Posted - 18 Mar 2010 : 09:37:15 AM I'm pretty sure this is a scam, she's advertised on a lot of sales sites and is allegedly in Leics, Scotland and Sydney is 16.3hh! and has a white star in some photos and no white markings in others |
