I think it's nice that you are trying to warn the "naive" Americans and other about the Russia/Former CIS mentality. As the Grandson of a Ukrainian Immigrant and as a person who has traveled much and even studied law and done business in Russia and Eastern Europe, I understand where you are coming from. Americans are really innocent lambs... acting from naivety. 

I personally don't care much for the ethos of the modern American Women and look for an intelligent, self aware, loving, intelligent women in touch with her femininity who can be a women and can do what she wishes in this life. After living in Southern California my whole life, I am reasonably confident that the prevailing social conditioning creates values in the women here which do not appeal to me. 

It's tough on line dealing with the CIS because you need to be very skeptical, yet this attitude may alienate the legitimate women. The bottom line is that you never know with whom you are dealing without various methods of independent verification or personal meetings. 

Take care and I am happy you have found what you seek

Raisa Petrova (Tyumen, Russia)

My scam started when I posted my info on datingfaces.com. I was not looking for a Russian woman in particular. I was just looking. I get an email from datingfaces, and in the email, it already had the person personal email address. I was curious and so I responded and I was immediately greeted with a photo and a nice letter. After several letters and photos this person started saying they were falling for me. I found it odd, but since I consider myself a charming person, I thought.. yeah, it could happen. Soon afterwards this person (Raisa) wanted to visit me but because they didn't earned enough, she could not afford the visa. I have much money, so like and idiot, I sent money to her via Western Union. The odd thing is that I speak Russian and so I send her an email in Russian that went completely ignored. I thought it was odd but perhaps the symbols got scrambled and it was unintelligible. She had informed me she was having a birthday soon so I decided to do something nice and send flowers via FTD. FTD tried to deliver the flowers and said there was no one at the address I provided them by that name. When I informed Raisa of this and told her that I would like to send her a gift via the mail, she told me not to, it was highly unreliable. But I will stop here and let you read her words for yourself. I will also include pictures. Here is her email address, so called street address, etc. Please withhold my name and email, but you may contact me... Also notice that at no point in her letters she called me by my name, which I found odd and started the whole investigation process in the first place (as with the inability for flowers to be delivered. If it wasn't for FTD, I may have continued to be duped. Life goes on, no hair off my back. Here is her info and I hope it helps others.

Without you here with me 
Life with you makes perfect sense 
You're my best friend 
You're my best friend, oh yeah 

You stand by me 
And you believe in me 
Like nobody ever has 
When my world goes crazy 
You're right there to save me 
You make me see how much I have 
And I still tremble 
When we touch 
And oh the look in your eyes 
When we make love 

You're more than a lover 
There could never be another 
To make me feel the way you do 
Oh we just get closer 
I fall in love all over 
Everytime I look at you 
And I don't know where I'd be 
Without you here with me 
Life with you makes perfect sense 
You're my best friend 
You're my best friend 

You're more than a lover 
There could never be another 
To make me feel the way you do 
Oh we just get closer

Tatyana Ivanova (Irkutsk, Russia)

I FEEL LIKE SUCH A FOOL.

I am a 40 year old divorced male with a 3 year old daughter. Until last night I was madly in love with a Russian girl I knew only through photos and wonderful letters. She contacted me through the Absolute Agency. I came across this site by accident, looking for an interpretation service so I could write more eloquently to my lady. Just for grins I started to leaf through the letters, at first thinking "these poor bastards, but I sure got lucky, though". Then I read one that sounded a little too familiar. And then another, almost word-for-word to one I received after a month of correspondence with my "love". I was floored. I couldn't believe I was taken in by a scammer! Thank God I'm only out about $50.00. She asked for the $350.00 for a visa, but I stalled, wanting to be sure of what I was doing. I'm so glad I did. She goes by the name of TATYANA IVANOVA of Irkutsk, Russia. I will attach some of the photos.

Tatyana Ivanova (Irkutsk, Russia) - 2

My name is Linn. I am a 41 year old single man, very much heterosexual and I have looked for the love of my life for many years. I am a devoted friend and an honest person. I have been scammed by A woman named Tatyana Ivanova. She claims to live in Irtkutsk, at 664000 Stephana Razina street 20-12. I received my initial letter from her on 7-23-2001. I answered her letter a week later. It read like this: 

Hi. My name is Tatyana. I like your photo. I would like to get aquainted with the man , who could value my care, tenderness and love. I would like that he was kind, responsible, capable to stretch a hand of the help in any problems. If you to hear me and you agree with me that can write to me on my e-mail. In turn I shall try to be the offer, loving, devoted, responsible woman...

I have written a letter everyday since for about six weeks to her. The money request letter is a perfect match word for word to a letter that i read sent in by Joe who posted his letter on page 24 sent to him by Tatyana Pavlova of Magadan. I have sent her 350 usd to gain a visa. I know it is near impossible that she will probably get one. I am sure it is a scam to part me from my samoolians.

After two weeks she started insisting that she come and visit me in America. She said she would pay for her VISA $240 and the trip to Moscow. I was to pay $730 for her trip from Moscow to Seattle. She wanted the money sent to her at:

Western Union. adress: 634950
ALPHA BANK
TOMSK
PLOSHAD ' KIROVA, 2

Thankfully I found this wonderful web site and saved my money and my heart. She was very good about sending photos with every email but never took the time to answer many of my questions.
