Marina Parphenowa (Topki, Russia)

I am a 45 year old father of two who has been having correspondence with Marina Parphenowa since June 26th, 2007.She contacted me through True.com a personals matchmaking site. I accidentally came across the blacklist while I was researching Russia. As I was going through the list I have found pictures of this very woman that are the same as what was sent to me recently. The name has changed from Olga to Marina. I am sending one pic that matches a pic from the blacklist page 494,OCT. 2, 2006.(Olga Leis). I will also include other ones to aid in others identifying this scammer more easily. Apparently this scammer is still at it. It only took this person 8 days to ask for the money. I am only including the first and last letters to minimize clutter to this site. She just asked for money on the 3rd of July. I have dealt with this before so I won't send any money anyway but I will play them a bit and hope they get caught while doing this. Following are the 1st and last letters to date. Pictures and Id card is also attatched.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am so glad to see that we are almost near our goal,and our meeting wait for us.
I think I will call you from airport before my flight.
You know I booked tickets on Saturday flight and I will buy them before my intervew.
People from embassy must be sure that I am not going to stay illegally, so I need to buy roundtrip tickets (with returning date).
I wanted to ask you about electronic tickets but they tell that I can't use because it is their businees to arrange all travel details and they have some extra money from all the things, you see it is just business.I think that you will be able to help me because I don't know anybody here and only you are my hope now, I think everything in your hands and I believe that you will not leave me here alone.please borrow some money.
I am sure I will be able to return all your money back after a few weeks,I will get salary and I will collect the sum I own from you.
To be fair I am not sure I know what to say because I hate to ask but now I have no different way, you see.
Please help me it is only money and much more important if we will meet in person I will do my best, you won`t be disappoined.
I see that it sounds a little crazy but I can't believe that in the worst case I have to return home,they all will laugh at me.I think it rests with you to decide and I feel that you will help me because you are kind.
I have about 300 US dollars yet and I think I need about 950 US dollars from your side with all travel needs and living here till my flight!
(I had 1150 dollars, but flight from Kemerovo, opening visa, medical insurance and all travel needs costed about 800 dollars).
For truth I didn`t expect I will need to buy roundtrip tickets, but now I see that its a very strict rule.
If everything will be all right between us I can stay with you longer than three months,maximum I can stay about 6 months for first time!
We should change only the date of my returning flight.and if you don't like me I will live in rent room and won't bother you and money is money I will return it back in any case.I so much hope that you will help me.
My parents gave me all they had.
Thank you in advance. Maybe i look like the poor outsider but I do hope you understand my position because it is always there is anybody who needs the help.
I will call you from airport and I will wait for you there as long as you need,I mean if you need any time to arrive in airport.it is not problem for me to wait because I know that it is the end of my trip and I have time to improve my condition(some perfume)after long jorney.
I want you to see me in good shape!
Kiss you and do hope to kiss you in person so soon. We need to do it pretty fast,you know I ordered all my documents in advance and you see everything is ready so fast I need only your help because we have no a lot of time till my intervew, if everything will be all right I will be on this flight!
They have told me that you could make a transfer by Western Union. The manager from the bank explained to me how system works.
All you need is my name and my surname and address to put on their list. Once you do this, I'll be able to pickup the money in any local Western Unuion office in Moscow.
My address here (the room i am renting) Country : Russia,
City : Moscow,
Address : Gorkogo 94-11
post code (zip) : 892423
Full name Marina Parphenowa (right writting in English)
In case you will need my passport details I send you a copy of my passport.
After it please write me money transfer control number and I will go to nearest office of western union with my identification (passport).
Honey I am so happy that we will be together in a few days and I have so many different dreams about us and our first kiss and .....some of my dreams are so brave i will tell you later when we meet I prefer to say such things in person and I am sure we will have a lot of fun.
I'm sure we will like each other and we can probably stay together forever! I will prolong my visa or apply for a green card!
Sorry my parents are paying for the education of my sister, they helped me as much as they could.
OK! Everybody has difficulties in it's life! You know maybe women in Russia (and me too!) are not that world oriented...
I don't know how to explain... I've never made any trips abroad... I don't have such experience.
I come from a small city. I'm not a feminist girl, I'm ready to listen to my man and do everything he tells me. Maybe I'm too old traditioned? I don't know... I'm sure you will help me and we will meet each other and have a great time together!
When I come to you I will listen to your advises and I will do everything you tell me! You are such good man! Marina with great hope and many kisses!

y Russ, I LOVE YOU!

My parents and friends spoke you HELLO! Mum already asked as us with you affairs with a meeting. I have explained to mum, that everything is all right. On work of problems with a vacation will not be, and my boss has told, that in any day I can go on a vacation.

Today I went in agency of travel.They render set of services. I have addressed to lady with questions and she has kindly answered me all my questions. I have explained, that I want to visit the USA and the first question which she asked me: you were in the USA before?

I have told was not present. You have the passport? I have told YES! But my passport had restriction and now it is necessary for me to prolong the passport. Also she asked my marital status, my earnings, whether I have children, and set of other questions. I kindly answered each question.

I also have explained, that before I went to Europe. After that lady has told to me, that then you will not have a problem with visiting the USA. She has explained to me about a politics of the European countries and also the USA. Each country to care of people which arrive.

They choose from candidates on reception of the visa and do not give the visa to all. Material stability is very important. Also the social status and the purpose of arrival in America.

Lady has explained to me, that I should go to Moscow for reception of the visa. I never was in the USA before and consequently my personal presence at embassy with payment of consular gathering is necessary. I can stay in the USA approximately 3 months or these are 100 days.

Also I should tell, that if I shall send all documents through agency then I should pay much more money. Besides I should go to Moscow anyhow and personally be present at embassy. You understand about it? I looked on that site schedules of work and checked cost of the visa. These are 100 dollars.

I should you tell, that it is rather complex and long process to receive the visa. To me have told, that I have more opportunities to receive the visa. By the way, I should receive the visa of the tourist because it is fast enough and is more cheaper. Besides I believe, that for us now there is no necessity to receive the visa of the bride because it is our first meeting. You agree with me? So, in embassy if I shall prove, that I come back they will allow the visa without a problem. Here in Russia I have good work, my apartment, and proves all this, that I shall come back anyhow. Therefore I can safely go to Moscow and receive my visa!

I have a lot of information for this purpose, except for that I traveled earlier. I know also that it will demand from me time, my forces and money. I have time, I have forces!

I the strong woman and I also have money for this purpose. I should tell also, that I could save approximately 1000 dollars for this purpose. I would have more, but I have paid taxes and also I helped to pay to parents training of my brother. I approximately counted my expenses. I should go by train to Moscow and back.

I should pay also for the visa, for the passport, for many other documents. Also I should live in Moscow in hotel some time and pay for residing and for transport. I think, that I 1000 dollars will be spent for this purpose only. I read on the Internet, that it will be necessary for me to show the ticket back to Russia. Without it to me will not allow the visa.

It has a little afflicted me, because tickets will demand many money. I have wanted to arrive to you and I do not refuse it. I am ready to spend for this purpose my working hours, money and my forces. Because I know, that I want to meet you. I want to be with you. Both of us want it. For this reason I wanted to speak with you about division with me parts of expenses. I want you to ask, that you bought for me tickets aboard the plane. It roundtrip ticket. I think, that it will be fair, because I also to spend many my money and forces and time. You agree with me? I ask you that you bought for me tickets from Moscow up to your closest airport.

I already accepted all things here. I am ready to go to Moscow and to start to take all things. Now if you will help me with tickets I can go tomorrow already to Moscow. By train I very quickly reach Moscow. Tell to me, you will help me with tickets?

You have money for this purpose now? I very much hope, that you will help me. Between us there is a trust and feelings. Both of us want to meet. Also for me it will prove gravity of your intentions. Please, you should not me refuse.

We do correct things and I am confident, that we shall be happy together. I wait tomorrow your answer and if you have money and to me will buy tickets I shall go to Moscow. Write to me it. Excuse me, that I ask you about the help. I think, that it is fair. You know my earnings and you should represent, that for me it is many money.

I do not regret money and I shall do all for our meeting. But I should have your support also. We should be one command and then we shall be happy.

I wait your letter and with hope, that you help me also I shall go to Moscow soon. I love you. I wait our meeting. I want to see you and to kiss. Write soon, yours forever,Natalia.

Natalia Stavrina (Rudnichnyy, Russia)

I am a 40 year old single American male serving in Iraq.
I was contacted from a new email account and profile I had recently set-up a profile on Yahoo personals. I was just looking to have a pen pal and thought that was cool. I started in JAN07 and lasted till APR07. I received a letter almost daily and was never asked my age, my profession or anything else. A few times I emailed her to see if she actually received the emails I sent her because she was asking questions I had already answered. She talked about friends and work and the weather. Fell in love and how the Agency was going to send her to New York on a work visa. The day she went to go get the visa she had an accident and had to return the passport and ticket to pay for the accident. She had ten days to get the money and was concerned and asked me for ideas. I ignored it and finally she “found out about Western Union Service” and asked for $720.00 She sent me a scanned passport which the dates coincided with her emails and a plane ticket, not that I asked her too. It sounded too good to be true. Light comes on. She can’t pick up the money from western union cause she doesn’t have a job (untrue as anyone can get money from western union with a photo ID). She gave me the name of her friend and I asked my dad to check it out. He found the whole scam thing and the name she gave me of her friend on a blacklist from Western Union. I tried to send her $67.00 just for the pure entertainment that I got out the months of emails. Though western union wouldn’t let me do the transaction on line. So I rode the scam out till the end and she offered another name for me to use, also black listed. If you look on page 513 of your list the emails are almost identical. So I just pasted the last ones I got. Money was to be sent via Western Union to Ekaterina Gluschenko after I told her they wouldn’t accept it and then she sent me the name of Olga Korshunova. Both names were friends she had mentioned in previous emails.

Hello my dearest man Dan!
This is your Natalia. I hope you glad to hear from me today. I hope you are ok and my last news
didn't totally disappointed you. Honey are you disappointed in me? Please write me back and say
me that I am wrong and you are not disappointed and love me. I think these words will help me
to overcome this situation more easily and will uplift my mood. I hope I will hear from you soon.
I will wait your next e-mail with great impatience. Because I am in bad situation and I need to
feel your presence and your care. I hope you can understand me. I would do all I could to take
care about you if you would be in situation like me. But I want to wish you be lucky and that all
bad things will never happen with you! Dan I want to tell you some details about my accident and want to give you some information about how we can be together. I searched during all the day the way how I can fix my problems and how we can meet in appointed time. I hope you will understand me and will try to help us to meet. Firstly in my last e-mail I forgot to tell you some things about accident. I already paid almost all money for accident. I had no insurance of my car and that’s why I was forced to pay from my pocket. Here in Russia not everyone have insurance because we don't have obligatory insurance. If man want to insurance car, he will do it, if he don't want, it's his choice. I hope you can understand me. Also we couldn't find boy and eyewitnesses. This accident was happened in the evening and there were no almost any people.
But when I could find one man and asked him about accident he said he saw nothing! I was sad.
I thought a lot about my car and I decided to left it on a parking and I will try to sell it in Serov.
I don't have resources to transport car to Rudnichnyy. I think will be better to left car in Serov.
Ok, that's all about my car and payment for accident. Right now most important thing is where to find money to pay to agency to get back all my documents and ticket!!! Dan, dear, please forgive me, I didn't want to ask you about any financial help!!!! It would be last thing I would ever asked you about! But I don't see any way how to overcome this situation. Honey can you help me with getting money? I am so sorry and this is a disgrace for me. I know you thought I am independent and self-reliant person but now I think you could change your mind? Am I right? Please tell me that I am not right! I really hope for it. I am crying! I am asking myself all the time how it could happen???? Ok, please forgive me for my tears. I want to tell you some details of my searching. I want to agency and asked them about can you send money to agency directly? They said that they don't work with foreign citizens. I found out that they work with Russian banks and Russian citizens. They even don't allow credit cards and use cash only. You know Dan the credit cards are not popular here and all population of country prefer to use cash. The person who use credit card is rare! So they said that I have to pay them directly by
cash like I did it before. Also I went to bank here and asked them could you send me any money from your country to me, here. They said that there is no any bank who work with foreign banks.
You know my town is small. I asked maybe I can find this bank in Serov. They said that there is one bank but to get account there and to transfer money from your country Dan to me will take one-two weeks. I think I don't have so much time! Sorry but our bank system works slowly.
I have asked employee of the bank maybe there is other way how to make transfer from one country to other. He said me that he know company which make money transfers in the world The name of company is western union. I hope you know this company. I remember, I saw advertising of this company on TV. He said that I need to learn how they work in the office of western union and gave me address. I was glad and thanked him. Honey I found this office and I learned how they work and what we need to send funds. Honey if you have possibility to use service of this company and want to help me to get documents back here is information for you. But I have one problem with using western union service. I know that it's single way you can use to help me but I hope you can understand me. I hope it will not be a problem for you.
I found out that I can't receive any transfer from you Dan. I found out it in the western union office! I can't get it because I am unemployed and have accident bills. This is our rule here. I was sad. When I found out it I went to my friend Ekaterina and asked her about help.
She will be glad to help me. Thanks the God that I have good friends! So if you will go to western union to send funds please send it to the name of my friend Ekaterina Gluschenko!
Don't forget, use her name! I need 720$. You can send it in dollars, I will exchange it to rubles.
To send money use this address:
URAL TREASURES BANK
LENINA STREET, 138
SEROV , 624440
RUSSIA.
This is address of western union in Serov town. We will go there together with Ekaterina. Also I will need from you this information: confirmation number of transfer(10 digits), sum of transfer, full name of sender and address of sender. If I will not have any of this information I will not be able to pick your transfer up! Please don't forget, I need all this information!!! I will be glad if you will send me information like I wrote here:
Sender's name:
Sender's address:
Confirmation number:
Sum of transfer:
It will be more convenient and easily for me. I just want to be sure that all information is correct and don't want to make a mistake when I will write in papers in western union. If I will make mistake they will not give me your transfer! I hope you can understand me honey! Dan now I want to tell you some details of my trip and of my documents. If you will help me I will pay to agency immediately and will get all documents and ticket to New York City. I already wrote you about it before. I think you remember. Please don't worry. I have to visit New York and stay there about one day because I have to visit office of agency there to get additional documents and directive to my new work. Also I will get advance there(3000$) so when we will meet each other I will give you all money back and you will lose nothing!!! Are you ok with it dear? I think it's good thing. After I will get all papers I will come to you! Agency will take care about my road from their office to your area! They will pay for it! So we don't need to worry about it. I will try to call you form NYC and I will try to find place where I can send you e-mail. I will send you all details of my coming to you and we will be together!!!! Are you glad my dear! I hope it will happen and we can be together during April. I want it so much and hope for you my dear! You are my single hope in this world! I love you and will love you forever! I will wait next letter from you with good news! In the end of e-mail I want to remind you all necessary information again. You have to send 720$ to the name of my friend: Ekaterina Gluschenko!
Please send me this information:
Sender's name:
Sender's address:
Confirmation number:
Sum of transfer:
I need this information Dan. After I get your letter with information I will go to western union and will try to pick your transfer up and will get documents immediately. Then I will write you and will send you all details of my documents and about dates of coming! Don't worry I think everything will be ok and I will be careful with your funds also my friend will be with me!
Also remember I need to pay to agency until 18 April or I will lose all: all my documents, opportunity to get it again during long time or at all, good chance to get good work and possibility to meet you and to be with you honey! I hope you trust me and will help us to meet.
My dear I trust you and love you and therefore I decided to make big and serious step in my life to come to unknown country, to meet you and to be with you! I hope you understand that my coming will change my life seriously but I want it because I love you and can't live without you Dan!
