ALL CATTLE BUYERS BEWARE OF GARRETT HILL OF ROYSTON, GA! He runs an online cattle scam that is based in several different cities in NE GA. He normally claims to be from Royston, Lavonia, Carnesville, Ila, Hartwell, and even Commerce.  Garrett Hill is purchasing OLD smooth-mouthed cows at the Carnesville auction, and the Upstate Livestock Auction, and selling them online as "young-bred" cows. We purchased 11 cows from him for $20,000. He told us that the cows were all between 4-6 years old, and ALL were confirmed bred. He had a "professional hauler" deliver the cows, and as soon as I saw them, I could tell that they were much older than 4-6, so I had the vet come out the next day and inspect the cows. The vet said that ALL 11 cows were over 12 yrs old, and only 1 of the 11 was bred. Garrett Hill scammed us out of 20,000, and I am NOT the first person this has happened too. He has been banned from ALL the large cattle groups on facebook, but is still trying to scam people on FB and Craigslist. Garrett and his father, Mark Hill are in business together, so don't let them fool you. Be sure to have a VET confirm ages of  ALL cows PRIOR to purchase. Don't take ANYONE's WORD for it. We believed, and got totally skrewed! ALL CATTLE BUYERS BEWARE OF GARRETT HILL!

Garrett Hill used my farm's name to sell his old toothless cows.

AUTHOR: Anonymous - (USA)

POSTED: Saturday, September 26, 2015

I am yet another victim of Garrett Hill's online cattle scam. I did not buy cattle from him, but he used my farm's name and reputation to sell his old toothless cattle to unsuspecting buyers. He would advertise his old cows using my farm's name, and then claim to be my "son," who was doing business for me. He would give the buyer a great story of lies, then the buyer would agree to purchase the cows sight-unseen. (That is where he gets you! Never buy any cattle sight-unseen)After the cattle are paid-for, then Garrett would have a the buyer pay a "professional hauler" (Garrett Hill) to deliver the cattle. So not only was Garrett scamming people on the cattle, he was also being paid to deliver the cattle, but the people who bought the cattle, do not know that the guy who has sold them the cattle, is also the same person that they are paying to deliver the cattle. Garrett thinks that he is so smart, that no one will ever figure him out. That is the general way that most sociopath's think. A true sociopath thinks that they are are smarter than everyone else, and that they will never be caught. Well, guess what? Garrett, you are not smarter than everyone else, and you are now caught.  I was not aware that he was using my farm's name, until I got a call from a vet, who had an angry buyer on the phone, claiming that I had "scammed them by selling them old cows."I was very confused, (because I had not sold any cattle in months) so I contacted the people, and they explained to me what had happened. They said that a young man with a lot of tattoos had delivered a load of old cattle to their farm. He told them that he was delivering cattle for my son, who was selling the cattle in my name. I have no son, so this is totally impossible. Immediately, I had a thought young name named Garrett Hill lived just a little way down the road from me, and he fit that description perfectly.  I decided to email the buyer's a photo of Garrett Hill. They identified him immediately as the man who had delivered the cattle. The woman who had perchased the cattle, said that the voice of my non-existent "son" sounded a lot like the voice of the hauler. We put 2 and 2 together, and figured out Garrett's sceme.  This entire matter has turned into a huge mess and we are trying to seek legal action against Garrett, but the courts are slow. Do not buy cattle from him unless you have them all age-verified/preg-checked by a vet. He buys old fat "toothless" cows, (over 12 years) at the Carnesville, GA auction and then sells them all on facebook and craigslist as young/bred cows. This is just a scam! Verify anything that he tells you with facts before purchasing. He will get you if he can! Be smarter than the common con-artist, and have all "facts" verified before purchase.
