I had one of these emails not too long ago, they were very specific and
wanted ewe lambs only. Then they told me they were somewhere in the
mid-west, I'm in Florida. Right then that said this is a scam, the next
email they started with the 'I'll send more money than the cost of the sheep
. . ."  .  My next email told them I was sold out, someone bought my whole
herd that day.  I didn't hear anything back again.  

But this one had very good English and some knowledge of sheep, so it was
hard to determine that it was a scam until they said they were in the
Mid-West.  I sell 95% of my sheep from online contacts, so I can't ignore
emails like that.  

But Carol is right, keep your guard up - if it's too good to be true, it
usually is.
