I received the following text from a friend this morning: There have been 3 sightings of 2 suspicious men with eastern european accents photographing local horses. This could be a steal to order gang. The men have been seen at shows, events and even in a horse owners field taking pics. They have been seen in a white van reg N253 XAJ (NB: these are believed to be false plates - these plates belong to a cream ford minibus, which is not involved in stealing horses - read more about this number plate) and red Land Cruiser. Police are treating this as suspicious so please contact them urgently if you see anything. Please pass on this text.
I seem to remember reading something about this on the forum a week or so ago. However, whilst in my local tack shop near Cuckfield, West Sussex, this morning, they were discussing it as customers had all been receiving texts, so they rang the local police to confirm the story. They said these vehicles had been seen in this area in the last few days and to contact them immediately on their non-emergency number.
