“The first person to call about the papers gave us a registration number that did not match the name of the horse on the papers,” Janet says. “When we tried to look the horse up by the name, we did not have any horses registered with that name. We had him e-mail us a copy of the papers, and it was clearly an altered document. We believe this to be an internet scam to get money out of people. The scammer is requesting a deposit from people to either hold the horse for them, or to deliver the horse.”
