Current and recent hay scam messages

As you read through these, note the strange "From", like lobster investment <grin> Buying Hay?

Also take note of certain word patterns and word usage that just don't come up in normal messages. By the bottom of the page they will be pretty evident.  I don't want to point them out and give the scammers clues.

Scammers will normally ask for your name, address, phone number, etc. in the second or third message.  One tool you can use is to ask the scammer for a "Deposit" to hold the hay, of about  $50 via Paypal , before you will send them your contact information. This really screws them up!

Dear Andrew,
Thanks for your email. I am very interested in getting your Alfalfa and very urgently too. I will like to buy 290 bales for a start as I would like to buy all your hay if I find it good enough.I am located at white plains,Ny but would be leaving town today. I just a got a client from the British royal family interested in purchasing a horse so I will need the best quality of hay possible that will make my horse look well nourished. I will be leaving for Great Britain today to meet with the client for negotiations, but I have made adequate arrangements for your payment as well as the loading and delivery so you have nothing to worry about. Get back to me with your mailing address so I can instruct a client of mine to send you a check as soon as possible.

Subject: Re: Hay Supplier Needed

Thanks very much for your responds, Before getting your email, they made me understand that since It was a new person that would be supplying the hay, they would first like to start with a minimum quantity and see how much their animals will like it before ordering a large quantity. So I will like you to make out hay worth $1000 for a start, and let me know how many bales
that will be. Let me know how payment can be made and like I said before my freighter will be taking care of the hauling. As soon as you have confirmed payment, I will be instructing my freighter to come pickup the hay from your location. I will also like to let you know that this is an on going process where, if they like your hay, you would have to supply them on regular basis since I am still here. So do get back to me ASAP.
Regards
Noble

Subject: Re: Hay

Hello seller,
Thanks very much for the response , Am ok with the price of the Hay $9/bale i will be needing 20ton of hay. am going to make payments which will be by certified cashier's check. In view of this I need you to email me any information that may be required to send the payment as I do not want to send the check to a wrong location lest they get into the wrong hands.
Regarding the shipping, I have a company that takes care of the pickup of my consignments for me and ship to my destination in anywhere in the U.S.A, you do not worry about shipping, the company will send down a representative to arrange the sales documentation and the pick up from your end for onward transfer to my location. I also want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving an overdraft check, which will cover the money for the pickup (pickup and shipping to my destination) as well as the money to be paid to the company that will take care of the pickup and the documentation with you. So please, as soon as you receive the payment, go and cash it immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you, and send the balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment via Western union.The check will be in your name to make it easier for you to receive payment, please reconfirm your details one more time.I will give you the details of the company that will be shipping the Pool Table as soon as we seal the deal.Once the money is received by the agent , the shipping agent will contact you immediately to arrange the documentation as well as the pick up immediately. So in view of the above, here are some of the details I will need for final issuance of the Cashiers check to you.

(1) Full Name.........
(2) Mailing address....
(3) your direct telephone.....
{4} accept my offer...........

Thanks
once you get back to me with all the above, the check will be issued out and it will be sent to you .Hope to hear from you immediately.Looking forward to your swift response.
