Does anyone know if this is a joke, scam or what? I am very curious to know the backstory on it. I have never heard of Friesians racing in any case or a lot of the other stuff the ad claims. http://horseadoption.page.tl/Home.htm I saw the following ad on www.bayequest.com


"Outstanding friesian horse on Free adoption/ give away to a lovely home.., Majestik, FREE, Gelding, Black, Age: 5, Foaled: 2008, www.horseadoption.page.tl My name is Courtney Moore and Majestik is my horse, He is out on a give away price not because of any issues but that, My health is failing and I can't continue to take care of him. www.horseadoption.page.tl lovely freisian horse for adoption give away price to a horse loving family. for more information you can check on my website: www.horseadoption.page.tl or contact me at courtneymoore268@yahoo.com www.horseadoption.page.tl www.horseadoption.page.tl, 841-<19402386576, http:// www.horseadoption.page.tl, Send e-mail to advertiser, Send this ad to a friend, AD ID: 169556, Salt Lake, S, Submitted On: 03/19"

I know nothing about Friesians, but yes, that seems a little weird.. especially racing Friesians in China..

I didn't click the links . Lots of red flags . Of course it is spam or a scam.

Cleverly oh so similar web site name, oh so close to the legitimate www.horse adoptions.com, just has that extra .tl at the end.
Except it's in east Timor .

Read web link addresses carefully my friends.
Not just a scam, most likely an infected web site waiting to get it's claws into your Pc.

Wow...all the effort that went into setting up that completely bizarre scam page.

Apparently the horse is much older than he looks, as he apparently fought in WWI. I recognized that, presumably reproduction, victory medal in h is collection:

ETA: I don't think the site itself is infected...my work virus stuff is heavy duty and it didn't scream when I looked at that page .

[ThreeFigs]

What a relief!

I looked askance at those medals, too and realized they were NOT horse awards. Red flag and alarm bells galore!

I lack of typical sounding English and a random assortment of photos should tip anyone off.

I've seen scams where they have a Paypal option the page. They claim they will just ship the horse to you after you send thousands over via Paypal. Insanity.

My anti virus didn't react either and it is heavy duty as well.

I will always remember this, because of the Friesian racing in China!
