Kee, welcome to the world of livestock trading.
and it doesn't stop there, just try selling any kind of item..
I estimate 85% of the people are jerks..
the worst ones are the ones who are interested and ask a ton of questions. make you jump through hoops , sending pictures, answering questions. this can go on for weeks, and then finally saying they will be there . and you never hear from them again.
and scammers, let me count the ways,,,,,,,,
I am interested in the product. often not even mentioning what the product is, item or animal. ever so eager to get a check to you in the mail. what they intend to do is say,
the bank made a mistake and made the check out for too much. so could you just go ahead and cash it and send the balance to me ? we trust you and know you are honest.
the check turns out to be a bouncer. you have sent them the balance already, but now the bank is holding you responsible for the bad check. so you are out the amount you sent them plus the whole amount for the check. oh yes, they often tell you to keep a small amount for your trouble..
I always put, "cash only" in my ads..
