Svetlana
(Zvenigovo, Russia)
I was also writing to this woman for about 3 months but I knew her as Marina. Though I asked, she never did provide a last name.She almost stopped talking to me for a while until I slipped and mentioned that I was a published author, then she started writing more. This should have been an early clue. Communication broke off with her after I cought her in a fib and was told by a friend of hers that she had been hit by vehicle and needed an operation to save her life (asking me for money, of course). Her friends name was Irena and I have come to suspect that Marina is actually a known scammer from Zvenigovo named Irena. When I informed her that I knew that there was a scammer in her area by that name, she promptly sent me a photo of her and her friend at a zoo. This seemed a little suspicious to me. This one is good, she actually reads the letters that you send her and responds to them (no form letter responses). She had told me that she was 30, a teacher and that her mother had died when she was 2 and her father when she was 15, spending the remainder of her youth in an orphanage. She later sent me a photo of her mother whick i believe to be "Marina" before dying the hair blonde. Upon close examination I found that they have the exact same mole on the upper left lip. For a child to share this kind of thing with a parent is extremely rare. She sent me 9 photos of her and 3 of her parents. Two of them are all ready posted under "Svetlana" along with the exact same letters that I originaly recieved. I am sending more photos so that others can recognized her different looks. The last photo sent is the one of her "Mother", which as I said, I believe to be "Marina" in reality. Be careful of this one.
sincerly, Nick
Tanya
(Kazan, Russia)
I'm a 26/male/Straight Single Canadian Non-Smoker/Non-Drinker which they
tried to target, but was unsuccessful, thanks to a girl which I had met on
the "Hot or Not" site who had inspired me to open my eyes. I did not find
love, but instead found happiness from her intellect and was fascinated with
her unique character. Up to this point in my life I had never met a girl
that entertainingly stimulated my mind as she. School started and we had a
miscommunication and we don't talk to each other anymore. Because nobody's
neuronal brain patterns has ever matched and satisfied me, I have never been
able to love anyone truly. I get a kick out of these sites dating sites
and there is always something new and is somewhat semi-entertaining,
but the real fun is girls from my University. I guess that's why I love school so
much. That same month I got a message from a girl that just signed up
1/20/2005 on the "RateMyBody" site and the email are chronologically below.
This fake person with the name, Tanya, talked about the soul and tried to
touch my heart with these fake letters and didn't realize that I was
adamantine about falling in love so easily. I'm glad that I don't have a
weak mind so no harm has been done to me and I'm just trying to help the
next person not to lose hope in finding their "true love" because she does
exit and she is out there. I have met a lot of wonderful girls in my life
and it's just so hard to pick out one from a tree fruited with angles. The
sun is setting and I must settle up my horse and try my luck with the angles
of the wind. Best regards to everyone.

Hi, my dearest friend NAME!
I am writing you from Russia. I have seen your picture and decided to use my
chance to get acquainted with you. I know that somewhere in this world lives
my second half . And Internet is a good way to find him. So why not to try to
get to know each another? I believe that I need to tell you more about myself.
My name is Tatyana. I live in Russia, city called Kazan. So, my height is for
about 172 cm and weight is for about 52 kg I was born on July 10,1976. I am a
christian. I do not want to speak about the appearance. As I can not estimate
myself. I send you my photo. And I hope that you will make it. To
have a better idea of my appearance you can look at my picture, which is
attached to this letter. And what about you? Do you have any photo? I also
want to saw it. I want to apologize for some mistakes in my letter. You see, I
am not very good at English but I am studying it hard myself and hope to
prove my knowledge someday. As for my family, I am an only child in my
family. I have neither sisters no brothers. My parents are divorced for long time
already. My father left us when I was still a little girl and I haven't seen him
since that time. It is really very sad and I am always very upset thinking about
it. So I am looking for the person who will be a reliable husband, friend,
lover for me and who loves children because I adore children and would
like to have a happy, friendly family and our children to live in the
atmosphere of joy and happiness. It is my dream to create my own
family and to present all my love, care and tenderness to my future
husband and children. I have many interests and I will tell you about
it in brief. Well, I can't imagine my life without music. I get up
with music and go to bed with it! I always listen to music when I do something at home and it helps me to be in a high spirit. I like
everything from classical to modern music. Usually it depends on my
mood. From modern foreign music, I prefer Moby, Madonna, Jamiroquaer, Wanessa May, and Dido
etc. My favorite song is: "In This World" - MOBY. If you want to have a good
rest you must put this CD in you Stereo system and just take some fun.
I always try to find some time during the day to read a book. Usually
I do it before going to bed. I prefer Russian classics, such as
Pushkin, Lermontov, Chekhov, Tolstoy, Dostoevski and many others. I have re-read them many
times already and every time I take one of these books, it is like I am reading
it for the first time. I am sure you have heard about these writers. Sometimes I
don't mind to read something from the modern literature, detective stories or
novels. I do it just for fun. Sport is a great part of my life. I go to the gym
twice a week and also do aerobics. It helps me to be in a good shape
and in a high spirit. When I am training, I forget about all problems and hardships in my life.
I love my friends a lot and I have many of them. They are all very different and
it is always a great pleasure to see them. Sometimes we go to the
nightclubs but do it seldom because it is rather expensive for me. We like just
to walk around the town and talk about different things. We often go to visit
each another, it so nice to sit at home with a cup of hot tea in the cold winter
evening. We often go to the cinema and enjoy our time there. When I watch a
movie, it is like I am getting to that unusual for me world full of emotions,
passion, love and tenderness. You see I am very romantic and I like
romantic dinners with the candles, surprises, night walks under the
stars and many, many another things and some day I hope to experience
all these with my beloved man. Well, I will close here for today and
leave something for tomorrow! I am waiting impatiently for your reply
and hope to get to know as much as possible about you. For me, as a
woman, I need a man next to me, cause... "What's a woman when a man
don't stand by her side... " You know the song I guess man that I want
to have next to me must be very strong, intelligent, with sense of
humor, very romantic but motivated in the same time. He must love me and
protect me, make me feel like a woman and share I really like you and have very serious intentions. So feel free to
ask me everything you are interested in. Take care and have a good day! Hope
to hear from you very soon. Now bye NAME! Tanya.

Hello darling NAME !!!
When I am involved in a relationship I don't give love, I don't give passion, I
don't give trust, I don't give respect...I GIVE EVERYTHING ! That's me ... All
or nothing. I am a very romantic person, cause for me the soul is the most
important...the beauty is given to you by the nature or by the age, but the soul
is given to you by God, and that is the most important thing a human being
posses. In a relationship I am totally dedicated and I always treat the man
next to me the same how I want to be treated. I love romantic walks, holding
hands and talk for hours, I love romantic dinners and I love the classical
values. I am a very shy girl, I like very much to read poetry and philosophy
(Aristotle, Kant, etc.) and I would love to meet a good man who can change
my life. Sincerely I don t trust man because until now I don t find a man who
can love me ,and respect me for what I am , now only for my body. All
man look at me like to a sex machine, and I want to find a man who can
look to my soul not only to my body! I want to start a new life, a
better life I want to have a family to have a home of my own and a man
near me who can give me all the love in the world! I like my country, but I want leave it because lawyers here
are bad played and you don't have any future in this country. Sincerely I
trust more strangers then romantic people. I want to meet a stranger man who
can respect for what I am not for how I look, and accept me the way I am, and
who can make me happy, and with whom I can make a family. I want a
true love in my life, and if I meet a man I will go anywhere in the word with
him... If you think that you can love and respect me for what I am and if you
think that you can never lie to me then you are perfect for me and I would to
meet you as soon as possible because I can feel that you are the
right men for me. I want to be recognized to you, that as soon as I have received your
maiden letter it gave hope to me, that you are real. The alone person,
to whom I can talk frankly and to start new relationship. And now,
when I receive each our new letter I is very happy. That we find out
one another better. I have conducted a lot of time thinking about you
and now I want to inform it to you. Now I do not know as I can think
of you and who you for me. At first I thought, that you it is simple
penfriend. But now I think differently. Now you have taken a large
place in my life. Earlier I felt any vacuum in mine douche. But since
we have begun to write one another this vacuum began to peter. And now
there there are only my thoughts about you and my hope for our love. I
hope it does not shock you and I think, what is it letter will help you to
find out my feelings. I wait for your e-mail and I very happy that you write me I think
that you are a good man and I would love to meet you and to be
together. I am looking forward for your reply... I wish you a perfect day.
Always yours, Tanya

Hi my dear NAME !
What a happiness it is to hear from you. Thank you so much for the warm
letters and for the card. Sometimes it happens, when you wake up
in the morning and then things seem to take some crazy direction. But it passes,
one just needs to be patient, till the sun comes our from behind the clouds.
You know, before, when things went wrong at work, I use to come home and
just take a hot bath, have a cup of hot chocolate and watch some good old
comedy for the hundred and first time. And now I have so much more to take
comfort from, I have you in my life, I can reread your letters. Just knowing that
there are you on the other end of the world, thinking of me too, makes my life
so much happier. You know, I've been watching my fish, it's such a peaceful
sight. And the sweethearts are still trying to distance themselves from the rest
of my fish gang. : -) By the way, I noticed that fish are as curious as
people, they tend to show too much interest in the life of my sweet couple.
I mean that lately, since we started writing, I've been sleeping such a sound
sleep I haven't slept in years. In fact, I don't think I've had such a good sleep
ever since I was a child. I dream such magical, such colorful dreams, that it's
so hard to wake up in the morning, returning back to the real world. And I've
begun to see you often in my dreams. Name , in my dreams you're so close to
me, that I can feel the warmth of your body and the strength of your hands,
the softness or your lips? Seem as if our hearts are being as one and
there's no such force that could become an obstacle between us. Like
last night I dreamt a wonderful dream. In that dream we were walking
together, hand in hand, along the ocean shore. And the ocean, playful
as a kitten, nipping at our bare feet, licking our footprints off the wet sand. Milky pink dawn was just
being born in the cloudless sky, sprinkling the waves with its golden sparkles,
light breeze played with our hair. And then all of the sudden it began to rain, in
a second it was pouring heavily, and there's wasn't a single soul in
sight, and no place, not even a tree, to seek shelter from. In an
instant our clothes became soaking wet, and useless. So, we took it
off, and plunged into the warm and gentle ocean waters. Myriad of
raindrops, just like little pearls, hit the water surface, of the
color of rising sun. We messed around in the water like two kids, yet
I could feel your strong hands holding me, and I felt so safe, as I
never had felt. We laughed, it was the most genuine laughter. As I
woke up I thought that I wouldn't be fair any more to say I'd never
seen the ocean. Because I had. It was Our ocean. It can't be found on
the world map, but if there's a map of our lives, I'm sure it's there.
And it's called? The Ocean of NAME and Tanya?? Thinking of you, Tanya.
