Dear Tom,
 
A very weary CuChullaine here.
Tom, I'm writing to ask if you can do us a favor here at The Long Riders' Guild?
 
A month ago we received word about an equestrian travel fraud of staggering dimensions.
I've spent the last four weeks talking to various law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, working with a lot of other investigative journalists, and interviewing a string of victims that reaches from Florida to Montana.
 
What we uncovered is the biggest, and cruelest, Long Rider fraud in modern history.
But what makes it even worse is the fact that the man who pretended to be a Long Rider also posed as a Christian cowboy too.
The damage he caused is just hard to believe.
 
However, we have published an editorial about our findings.
That editorial is now being run on the front page of the massive Horse City.com equestrian website.
Here is that link - www.horsecity.com
 
Our editorial is entitled "Beware the Knave."
 
The reason I am writing, Tom, is to ask if you could pass on the word about this equestrian outlaw to all The Guild's friends in the endurance riding community over at Ride Camp?
 
OK, still more to do.
Hope this hot summer weather isn't getting you down.
 
Yours in haste,
CuChullaine
