| International Animal Transportation Kristie Orleans, Promise to transport horse overseas for seller/horse who does not exist, Internet |
| 6th of May, 2011 by User426251 |
| I saw a horse on dreamhorse.com that was I was interested in. The mother, Tiffany Orleans, emailed me back saying her daugher, Kristie Orleans took the horse with her to London while going to med school. Kristie emailed me wanting a good home for the horse - she sent pictures, Coggins, vet report and blood work results for "said" horse. I was to pay for transport to the U.S. The transport company, International Animal Transport, contacted with information to send the money and directed me to a their website to follow progress of the horses trip. The transport company contacted me a day later explaining that Charles De Gaulle airport was requesting travel insurance for the horse before releasing from France. After several calls and emails, I finally ended up telling them to contact the seller as that was not my responsibility but did end up losing money. Apparently there was no horse - must have stolen another horse's identity. Phone #'s no longer worked after a couple of days. |

I was contacted also and then asked for a phone number. I searched the internet and could not find her listed anywhere.
Hi Barbara,
It is nice reading from you about your interest in adopting our horse..."Schneider" ( Bay Hanoverian Gelding )
Well, Schneider is still available and he is presently 8 years old. There is nothing wrong with him both physical and health wise, I have attached some pictures of Schneider to this email.
I am a single mother and I presently live and work in Hanna, WY 82327
Actually we are not selling Schneider. He belongs to my daughter who works as a medical doctor and she has taken Schneider with her to London-England, to start a new job. She called me a couple of days ago and told me that, she is unable to take care of Schneider because she works for 10 hours a day and she usually goes out of town for seminars and research and spends about 2 weeks away. So she is unable to look after him because of her very busy work schedule. Unfortunately, she can't send him to me because, I go to work at 8am and only come back after 6:30pm. I am equally very busy like her. So, my daughter and I have decided to give Schneider completely for adoption to anyone who would be able to provide him with the care and attention he needs. My daughter would be sending Schneider through an airline that will furnish you with the flight information, the Air Way bill number and the tracking code. Until you confirm the flight arrangement with the airline then can you pay for the transportation of Schneider directly to the airlines from your local airport. All you would need to pay is the flight of Schneider directly to the airline which is $1800.00. My daughter can send Schneider as soon as you are ready to get him. You can get in touch with my daughter at [email protected] and her name is Kristie Orleans. I think it would be better if you get in touch with her directly for her to tell you more about Schneider and his temperaments and how she will be sending him over to you.
Thanks
We look forward to reading from you

These are the series of emails that I was sent from this same scam artist... this is not real... this is a SCAM...
Hello,
I have received an email from my mom to inform me that you are interested in Schneider.
Well, Schneider is extremely talented, Tall (16.2hh ), Calm and Loving! w/Pro Dressage Training!, willing, w/great bone, conformationally correct, fluid extended movement, He works on voice commands, round pen, and holding a light saddle, ties, loads, baths, good w/hoofs/farrier/Vet and in the field. He will slow jog for Western Pleasure or move out for Hunter Under Saddle... He is very easy to ride with gaits that are smooth and easy.. He does have automatic lead swaps that are perfect. He is a great jumper and would be absolutely good on 4h shows and Gymkhana's. He enjoys trail riding as well as working and he has a perfect disposition that will do you a great deal. He does not buck or rear. No lameness, No vices at all.
He has always been called Jack from birth but I had to change his name to Schneider because I found out that there are so many horses with the name Jack, I wanted something unique for him. He is presently 8 years old. Well, I have never wished to sell him because I love him so much and I have been keeping him since he was 4 but it has come to a time when I can't give him the kind of attention and care he deserves.( I think it will not be a fair treatment to sell him. Although Schneider is worth his weight in gold but a suitable loving home is more important than price.) This is because I work all day long and I do not have the time to look after him since I live alone here in London. I would have loved to send him back to my mom to keep him for me when i return ( Although not yet certain when) but she is equally busy working like me. So, my mom and I have decided not to sell him but to give him completely for adoption to anyone who would be able to take good care of him and give him the kind of attention he needs. He is absolutely OK health-wise and all his health/Vet papers are up to date. He does not need shoes to go for riding or jumping but however he has used them for sometime now and he is quite comfortable with them. He is very relaxed to ride and can also be ridden alone as well as with other horses, with more than one person on him. Schneider is calm and gentle for a green rider / beginner / amateur and equally a Pro. He is also very safe on trails. He has taken part in some local Novice competitions here in London and his last 3 performances are as follows: 5th. 2nd and 3rd Positions.
I have attached scanned copies of his last Vet, Blood test and coggins results for your review.
I will be sending him from London (England) with all his papers. Well, I had made some inquiries already here at the local airport (London Heathrow International Airport England) and i was told that it will cost $1800.00 for flight since I will be using all the same papers I used to transport him to London and for me to make the flight arrangement i will need the following information from you.
Your Full Name
Your Address
Phone Numbers (Home and Cell/mobile)
Name of Airport closest to you.
When I make the flight arrangement, I will give you the Airway Bill Reference Number and the tracking so that you can be able to do the tracking and monitor the movement of Schneider from England to the U.S. Also, you will be paying for the transportation of Schneider directly to the Airline transporting him.
I checked at the local Airport here, if I will need any extra papers to send him back to the U.S but I was told that since he is from the U.S, sending him back will require his papers especially the health/Vet papers to be up-to-date, so that won't be a problem since all his papers are up-to-date. The only extra paper I will need to get will be the transfer of ownership documents in your name.
He will be coming along with all his papers and there won't be any holding time (No quarantine). whenever you are ready to get him, then, i will prepare the transfer of ownership documents in your name and then make the flight arrangements so that I will give you the Airway Bill Reference number and the tracking code.When you get Schneider, do not hesitate to let me know if you have any problem taking care of him or dealing with his temperament, I will be always ready to help you but I can assure you that he has an excellent temperament around other horses and people.
Thanks and hope to read back from you soon.

NO TIME:
I knelt to pray, but not for long, I had too much to do.
Must hurry off and get to work, for bills would soon be due.
And so I said a hurried prayer, jumped up from off my knees.
My Christian duty now was done, My soul could be at ease.
All through the day I had no time to speak a word of cheer.
No time to speak of Christ to friends; They'd laugh at me I feared.
No time, no time, too much to do, that was my constant cry.
No time to give to those in need.
At last 'twas time to die.
And when before the lord I came I stood with downcast eyes.
Within His hands He held a book, It was the "Book of Life"
God Looked into His book and said
" Your name I cannot find. I once was going to write it down but never
found the time" |

We can fly Schneider to either JFK or Miami but I think Miami is better because it is closer and so the hauling process from the airport to your home address won't be that stressful. I used my Uncle's truck to move him to the airport but most at times, the airline responsible for flying him takes charge of the ground transportation as well, so you don't need to worry about that.
My phone does not call International numbers so you may call me at +4407045715100 You may call me between 8pm to 11pm
I will need to know what day exactly you will want me to send him so that I can create enough time off my very busy work schedule and make the necessary arrangements for the flight including the preparation of the transfer of ownership documents that has to carry your name.
Thanks
Kimberly
