I got it as well and the large text was really easy to read! :D
You would think they would at least come up with something that makes a tiny bit of sense. I mean seriously....8 teacup Yorkie's and 5 Golden's? No way would anyone have that combination in one house. Just wouldn't happen.

I never respond to scam e-mails since I don't want them to know they hit on a viable e-mail address but..... It would be funny to keep something like this going. Maybe tell them that the horse only likes a certain decor, modern contemporary perhaps, so they should let you know how they decorate thei...

Can't forget to mention that you will be sending them a check as "proof" of your incorporated business structure, which they must cash upon receipt and then return 90% of said contents of check in US dollars to you therefore allowing them to maintain the remaining 10% as a token of your no...

Far better to just ignore/delete these types of e-mails.
Once you reply they know they have reached a legit e-mail account.
Leaves you open for them to sell the e-mail address and for you to start receiving even more scams.

Dates are usually mentioned as well as the type of pets they have. But that's just me! I might return the e-mail and see if you get a response before cal...

I think the majority of us get these things all too often. It's quite obvious that it is a scam. I'm wondering why you even responded to it in the first place? A good portion of time they are trying to find a viable address in which to keep sending stuff to. Once you respond they know they have foun...
