Svetlana
Antonova (Ekateringburg, Russia)
Hi, my name is Max. I'm 28 y.o. live in
Sydney, Australia, but my native language is Russian. Recently I was
contacted by a person who claims to be Irina from Samara. She
contacted me through http://www.ua-dating.com/ web site last week. I
had received three letters from her. I've made a search using her
e-mail address and found that she's already listed in black list as
Svetlana Antonova from Ekaterinburg, Russia
(http://www.womenrussia.com/blackpage95.htm). Also she is listed on
http://love.mail.ru/item/404742.html as Irina from Kazan, Russia. As
you can see in her letters she's using automatic Russian-English
translator and does'nt really care what do you write in your letter to
her. For example she didn't pay any attention that I live in
Australia, not in US: "I had Never in America, but it will not be
a good lesson, I think, to study the Englishmen.". She haven't
made any claims for money, but I don't see any point of continuing
correspondence with someone who uses different names, claims te be
living in three different cities and sends you letters using same
template with your name inserted at the top. As a person who was born
in ex-USSR I feel ashamed that such people as Irina create negative
image of our people, but trust me there is much higher proportion of
women who have genuine intentions of finding lasting relationship.
Best regards, Max
Here is a copy of letters I had
received from Irina:
1st letter:

Margarita or Rita Vetrova from
Novosibirsk along with the International Marriage Agency
"Accord"-Mihail Macheret and Olga Macheret
I would like to report to you about a
husband and wife scam taking place in Novosibirsk, Russia. It appears
as if they are using Free Web sites to get people to respond to a
profile posted by them most likely and then to get them to send them
money either by Western Union or directly into their bank. The front
that they are using is called the International Marriage Agency
"Accord" and is supposedly located in Novosibirsk and is run
by the director of the Agency (http: // www.manwomanaccord.narod.ru)
Mihail Macheret and Olga Macheret of NOVOSIBIRSK. I have no idea if
this attractive lady Margarita or Rita Vetrova(age 26, DOB 1/28/77)is
involved or not or if she exists at all. This is an obvious scam as
the letters seem to be prewritten, do not answer any questions, will
not give you any personal information and are just a scam. There is
another posting about this lady with the same or very similar letters
and this Accord Agency at: http://www.womenrussia.com/blackpage153.htm

me has prevented to read him earlier only night. You see, how quickly
people have put your message to me. Now I write the answer. Then I

Such technology of dialogue seems to you not clear. That is why so it
is important for me to talk through agency. But the validity - those
in us. Therefore I am grateful to a head of agency that allows us to
write each other such gentle letters. Therefore I ask to consider work
of the head with attention and understanding. I shall try to answer
all your questions. It very much is pleasant for me. If you ask me in
detail, it means your serious attitude to me. 1. I work as the medical
sister in children's hospital in regional children's polyclinic. I

more than 300 000 people. Children are attached to the site and to the
doctor. I help the doctor to conduct reception and to treat children.
2. I have no an opportunity to travel in Moscow. The wages as the
medical sister in children's hospital $ 70 per one month. The ticket
aboard the plane from Novosibirsk up to Moscow is $ 130, the plane
flies three hours. Certainly Moscow is very beautiful city, but
between our cities distance is 3336 kilometers. 3. You can send money
for our correspondence only addressed to the director Agency (http: //
www.manwomanaccord.narod.ru) Mihail Macheret manwomanaccord@narod.ru.
He will send you all my data. As I receive your correspondence from
Agency too and without the return address. It is business Agency, as
this organization advertises me on a site and spends money for my
service. 4. Our letters cannot be private up to certain time. To me
have explained in agency, as it is possible to settle all problems. I
hope, that I shall explain all clearly for you. After you pay quantity
of letters, only the chapter of agency will be my authorized
representative. I do not have computer. He will get for me a personal
letterbox, where you will send me letters. He can give you my
coordinates but then I should search for the translator and go in
Internet club that I could send the letter to you. For me it is
expensive, at us cost of one hour is equal to 1 dollar. My salary does
not exceed 70 dollars in month. We can speak by the phone. The head of
agency is decent the man, he is 47 years. He understands our
difficulties and necessity of private dialogue. Therefore I shall
communicate with you how if we were close. Your arrival is possible.
The head of agency too is engaged in the organization of arrival and a
meeting. I live in city. Our city has the international airport and
can accept various planes. It is name is Tolmachevo. You can visit me
at any moment. For this purpose you can reach city of Moscow, then fly
up to cities of Novosibirsk. Yes, my country is very large. Moscow is
by capital of Russia; Novosibirsk is by capital of Siberia. Certainly
we have a railway way up to Moscow. If! you are the man of serious
intentions, you will contact to the director Agency. He together with
me can meet you. 5. If it is honor, I do not watch in any way the
figure. It is my heredity. Especially we in Russia have got used is
food of home preparation. In your country it is accepted to eat in
restaurants of a fast feed. There always surplus of fat. You drink
Pepsi, we drink juices, mineral water, tea. In Russia of animals feed
with natural products and grow vegetables without application of
chemicals. So I at all do not know progress is well or poorly Kiss
Rita Vetrova Best regards,Rita
Hello, Ralph. I am pleased, that you
have written to me. I think, that I have not given you an occasion to
show to me the claim on a question of accommodation of my photo. If
you consider, that I am similar to model I shall take part it as a
compliment of my appearance. FRANKLY SPEAKING I let's you occasion
doubt. I do not ask from you money. My photos are placed on pages
Internet agency.Therefore you communicate first of all with agency, it
works and gives the information to me. My name is Rita, and the full
name is Margarita. Flowers of a daisy have such name. I have written a
full name of polyclinic in the previous letter. I can not understand
what data to you are necessary. The name of polyclinic is "
Children's polyclinic of October area of city of Novosibirsk. " I
can give you a guarantee of the direct dialogue. And dialogue depends
only on sights of both parties. On my behalf to learn about you it is
as much as possible, that our correspondence could result in a
meeting. With tenderness, For study of English language I apply
knowledge which has received at school and the supreme maximum. Still
I am helped by the interpreter established on the computer and the
employees working in Agency. Here are few of my favorites love quotes
that expresses my feeling for you: 1. "You may only be one person
to the world But you may also be the world to one person." 2.
"I only wish to be the fountain of love From which you drink,
Every drop promising eternal passion." 3. "A part of you has
grown in me. And so you see, it's you and me Together forever and
never apart, Maybe in distance, but never in heart." 4. "Age
does not protect us from love, But love to some extent protects us
from age." Rita Vetrova Best regards, Rita
Hello, Ralph. You wrote XX. XXXXXXX
200X, 2:40:04: Dear Ralph. I explain you a principle of job Agency. I
receive your letters from Agency without yours E-mail. I answer you
and Agency sends it to you. The computers cost at them at office.
Therefore until then while you do not pay, to you will not send mine
àäðåññ and telephone and me will not give your address too. I
regret. But Agency ðàíèìàëîñü by my accommodation also it is
their business. I think, that without payment the director will not
allow me to write the letters to YOU. Rita Vetrova Best regards,
Rita
Hello, Ralph. We are pleased to have
such polite client as you. But all clients the girl have the contract
with AGENCY. They have no any an opportunity independently to search
for the partner for life of family and address to our Agency behind of
services. Therefore opportunity of dialogue is for all man-clients are
identical, switching in you. The girls are real, you can in services
of service in a site (http: // www.manwomanaccord.narod.ru) to read,
and as our clients the girl receives confirmation of the validity.
But, I think, that you it is wrong and it is offensive ask rather real
in Email the girl Rita Vetrova. I defend their interests. If you do
not search for entertainment on a site, I have the request to you to
write lawfully. You are defined in your feelings to the girl and after
you will make the payment, you can communicate on Email or telephone.
I wish to you good luck in researches the girl for life of family.

Maria
V. Shlyundina (Vladivostok, Russia)
Dear sir: Please post my
experience. I don't want let anyone else to go through with this.
I have put an advertisement through an
agency (they are legitimate and continue to operate so I will not put
their name here) in search of a marriage-minded Russian woman and I
found a woman from Vladivostok, Russia. Her name is Maria
V. Shlyundina. She is 22 and she was just about getting graduated from
a five-year college. This woman does exist and I corresponded
with countless e-mails and phone calls over about a year. Her response
was prompt and her English was relatively good. So I decided to
visit her hometown Vladivostok in Far-East Russia in the middle of the
winter. She was indeed kind of my type and we had a good time for
about 10 days there. However in the following months she started
begging me to send some money. I complied to her with a few hundred
dollars for several occasions. She did receive them with her own name. From
time to time she will be 'out of town' and became unable to reach her.
Shortly after we decided to engage in June and apply for her fiancé
visa to US, suddenly I received an e-mail from her that telling me she
is in Japan in early September, claimed to be doing a 'hostess'
there for 3 months after finishing school. She said many girls from Far-East
Russia go to Japan, (which is only a few hours away by air)
to make some money working as a dancer or hostesses. As it turned out
she was hired as a prostitute and there seems to be a type of
underground smuggling operation between Russia and Japan, Korea,
Thailand, Hong Kong and elsewhere... Normally it is extremely
difficult to get a tourist visa to Japan yet seemingly there are
ways to get around it for adult entertainment industry
there. I eventually discovered her misdeed, both from her and through
some investigation, made her confessed about making thousands of
dollars sleeping with multiple men. Especially disturbing was that
she was living with a Yakuza - Japanese mob in Yokomama area
for a over a month for mere $10000 dollars. Furthermore while
we were being engaged she continued to live with another mid-age
well-to-do Russian during the summer, who also seemed to be in a
type of underground business and then also as a
pimp. She also went to Thailand earlier last year with seemingly yet another man
possibly from Australia. She has a prior engagement with Japanese
national about two years ago (for this, I was told and knew from the
beginning), who was likely scammed like others. I contacted
authorities in Japan and there on the watch if she tries to
cross-border again. Needless to say I cancelled engagement, all
the visa arrangement and terminated the communication with her. I
wasted over a year of my life trying very hard to accommodate her
spending thousands of dollars for gifts and traveling arrangement -
what a nightmare that was. I believe she continues to search for more
victims. She is listed in many Internet Sites, with similar
introductory text looking for Australian or Japanese men, which I guess she
looks for the relatively closer distances from her hometown. Here
are some of the sites still carrying her posts. I believe the
first 4 sites are all spawned by a single entry - I think you should
also be extra careful searching anyone from these web sites:

This woman is truly sick at her young age. Don't waste your money and
precious time for this scammer, or worse yet risking contracting
some venereal diseases. Lastly I was scammed alright but I also
feel truly sorry for her - such a pity. Chuck

for internet/translation scam
I am a white male and I would like to report to you about a scammer
Nataly Brikman and also this scammer internet cafe and the manager
Irina Mikhailova located in Lugansk. Nataly has a profile listed at
MatchDoctor under the profile name of Nataly_brd and is supposedly 25
years old and lives in Lugansk. After writing a letter to Nataly, her
two letters back to me of course did not answer any of my questions
put to her and is obviously a form letter response. This internet
agency wants money sent by Western Union, of course, for her letters
to the supposed manager of this fake internet agency, Irina Mikhailova
( gee, what an original scam idea). The address of this internet
agency is: Sovetskaya Str. 48, office 413, Lugansk, 91022 Ukraine.
Please add both of these names and the photos of Nataly Brikman to
your ever growing list of scammers. Sincerely,
S.H. (SCAM HUNTER)

Svetlana
(Krasnoyarsk, Russia)
I am a single father 33 yrs old and I had an ad on yahoo personals, I was contacted by a woman that said her name was svetlana and she lives in Krasnoyarsk Russia, Now the picture I was sent was of a very beautiful woman I recieved 3 pics they were all of the same person and all in the same outfit. I did some searching on your website and found 2 pics in the same outfit I am sending the 3 I recieved along to you as well.. She has not said anything about money. She did say that her father was a military officer who was lost in Afganistan when she was small, this all is very believable, how ever in your site I found 2 other names she has used Olga and Marina, Well suprisingly enough in her email to me she describes the exact 2 names as friends she goes to have tea with on occasion to talk. She stated her mother lives in a city not far from Krasnoyarsk but has not reveiled this city, She said she had never been married and that she has no children. This girl is a great Scammer she has many pictures

visa($186), later ticket money she was short($130) & later insurance I dont know
if it was travel insurance or some other which I was credited when Western Union
varified a scam ($300)Money was sent to her name. The only other thing I 'd like

Tatiana
Akinshina (Lugansk, Ukraine)
Hi, I'm a 35 year old Canadian and I would like tell you about my experience with
a known scammer, Tatiana Akinshina. Currently myself and another male from
Argentina have filed complaints with the SBU and the FBI. I would like to see the
agency International Communications(former Questway) and in particular, Ms.
Akinshina stopped of their practices. I would like any others that have been
scammed by this agency and their girls to step forward with their stories to this
site. http://www.ukrabel.com/scamalert.htm If we get a couple of more
complaints then maybe we have a much stronger legal case against them. They
are very good at what they do.
I have current pictures, email address, and letters from Tatiana and you are more
then welcome to them. I know for sure that the SBU have questioned her but I'm
not sure they did anything with her except maybe tell her to not do it again. If I
can get two more individuals to step forward then for sure we will have enough of
a case against International and Tatiana and maybe pave the way to clean up the
city, known as the City of Scammers, Lugansk. Steven
P.S. Please add the above web site to your web site next to Tatiana Akinshina and maybe we can locate others that have also been scammed. Thanks
Tatyana Lentov (aka Tatyana,Tanya Svetlov,other aliases)
