Example of Hay Scam

Scam warning about Laxix Osehon, Carre, and Patrick Inyan.
From: Hay Barn Customer Sent: Saturday, June 09, 2007 1:41 PM Subject: Warning: Possible Scam Dear Leslie (Hay Barn), This is very important, we have recently been contacted by someone using the name Laxix Osehon who found our ad on your website. He ordered 7 tons of hay via email. Never once did he call, but simply placed the order via email and sent $4850 in a cashiers check to us. The check cleared with no problem. He asked us to deduct $2860 and Western Union it to his "shippers accountant" in Manhatten New York by the name of Patrick Inyan. His shipper goes by the name of Mr. Carre and he did call us once asking where his money was and that he wanted it that day. We told him the check had to clear the bank first. Then one day before his shipper was supposed to arrive here in Iowa, Mr. Osehon asked us to send $1,000 to Patrick Inyan once again because the shipper was requesting this additional amount in order to pick up the hay. He asked us to take this amount out of our personal account and explained to us that the shipper would reimburse us when he arrived to pick up the order. When we professionally refused to do this, Mr. Osehon explained if we could not, he would need a complete refund. We offered to deliver the hay ourselves and save him the $1,000 but he is so far refusing this as well. The entire ordeal has been beyond strange and we simply wish to warn you and your advertisers of a very possible and serious scam. Sincerely, Hay Barn Customer
