Another dodgy developer begging letter

[B R C]

What a load of tosh just out to buy development sites on the cheap.

Odd address for a sheep farming enterprise...

I think you are a little hard on these type of people, I am sure many do genuinely believe, they can make a living on 5-10 acres of land. They are not all trying to make a quick buck.

I’m not against genuine good lifers, this is not that though. Just a front for developer, look at website took about 5 mins to build....with zero information on it. Oh and they have a pile of money waiting to give to you.

address above a shop on the high street and really poorly made website

The style looks vaguely familiar? I'd say Annabelle’s Woolly Wool may be a land banking scam.
The 'badger vs hedgehog' header still makes me chuckle

Country Land Conservation Ltd

We fairly regularly get phishing letters from developers, but this is a completely new angle on land purchasing. Maybe it’s not illegal but slightly dubious, based in Ireland and only recently been set up.

Hence my first post Mr C. On a quick look though there is a contact address which is just a PO box in Guildford. Of course Annabelle might be just protecting her self from nutty landowners but the apparent wool business also operates through the same PO box with virtually just that on the website.
I must get a life.

CLC sent me a letter. I tried to flog them my SSSI. You'd never guess they didn't reply.
My next comment would have been an 80 year, 50% overage clause

It's always funny they are happy to spend 50k upwards of five acres, but have no interest in renting it for £200/ac

We regularly get letters from upmarket estate agents saying mr and Mrs x have £1000,000 to spend on a country property if we,my mum is selling

Annabell is looking to buy off us as well. We must be 70 miles from Guildford.

I got one aswell.

I'm jealous. My house obviously not good enough.

Have had these in the past but always bin them, it's quite a common theme for the Caravan Club to try on, a friend very nearly sold a small block and after doing a fair bit of research found out it was in fact The Caravan Club, I think when the chap mentioned paying in cash sort of gave the game away!
But had a London add and also website etc so looked legit

I’ll get the next one forewarded to you

I’ve had one too and my wife, certainly a scatter gun approach, definitely a con.

They never seem to write to me. Either I don't have enough acres or the uneven nature of my back patio because of the decomposing corpses I have under it puts them off.
