Tanya Sciroid ( Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine)
1) The scammer is Tanya SCIROID (Tatyana, Tatiana) of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine
2) I am 31 year old Patrick from France,
I am a Eurochallenges' member, marital agency of Strasbourg, France (www.eurochallenges.com)
since December 2005 ( I went twince to Russia ) As my girlfriend of St-Petersburg let me down in March 2007 ( by telephone )
I got in touch with Tanya SCIROID through www.ChristianCupid.com about 3 months ago ( 21 May 2007 )
3 ) I booked flight tickets on Tanya's behalf through Dnepropetrovsk Tour Company "Travel The World" (www.traveltheworld.net.ua)
I checked out the reliability of the Tour Company before transfering the money to their bank account
- relevant to Austian Airlines flights, Passport and Visa, health insurance etc... ( see the 1rst letter beneath )
4 ) Finally I was seeking for help to "Discover Ukraine" of Irina Timchenko, www.du-counseling.info
as I asked Irina to check a lottery ticket ( scan beneath ), Tanya's last connection to me...
I highlighted - in red her scam process to prevent foreigners from being used by this very practical, smart and cynical woman !
Thank you Elena for publishing,
and my warmest regards to you,
Patrick, France

Dear Patrick :
You are welcomed by the Tourist Company "Travel The World"!
On Tatiana's request I am e-mailing you this information.
We can arrange for your friend to obtain an International passport and visa
to visit you . An international passport costs 100.00€.
Once she's got her international passport a visa application is filed.
All applicants pay a 85.00€ congressionally mandated, non-refundable
application fee. They will be provided with an application form which
they should complete, date, and sign .
Once we receive a request, our agency will schedule an appointment for the
next available date and contact the applicant to confirm the date.
We request 10 working days to process a request for an appointment from the time we receive the request until a response is sent.
I was informed that Tatiana wants to land to Bale, Switzerland but the
visa she must have is for France , correct? In this case She may need
a transit visa for Switzerland as well. I shall confirm this later.
Tatiana must also have a Health Insurance by the time she goes to the interview for her visa in Kiev. It will cost 144€ for 36 days .

My Dear Pat! I write you from Kiev ,I cannot say that I got here safely
as I was robbed in the train.I know it sounds terrible and the news is disgusting but it is what
happened. I have to bring you this news as now I am without the money for customs which you sent me darling..
I left the compartment and went to buy some tea and on my return it was unlocked and the money wasn't there anymore.
I kept it in the small handbag.All other documents are with me, I got my visa already but without the money for customs I am afraid i won't
be let to fly to you.
In the train people couldn't help me but how could I knew who was the thief?!
I've contacted the police on my arrival to Kiev but they refused to help because
they said it was not their region to seek the thieves. Now I am very stressed and
disappointed in myself but I realize that I have to be strong and do all my best
to fly to you.I want to know what you suggest me to do darling?
And if you can help me urgently with 500 euro?
If you can I'll keep it safe and bring it to you by all means.
I should have exchanged the cash into travellers checks , but I didn't
as it cost
additional money to do so, now I realize it was my mistake.
The worst thing I worry about now is missing the flight because of the
entry money
absence! Please help me out if you can darling, I see there are many Western Union offices here in Kiev, just send it in my name to Kiev
Ukraine...
I count on your support,my love.. I hope it won't stop us from being together as we planned. Please forgive me my darling.
I'll be waiting for your reply here,
Yours sincerely,Tanya

Honey, Pat, I received the money , thank you so much for your care darling.
I was making a check in the airport , with modern security system they
inquire an earlier check in for the people who fly internationally.
And you know, I didn't pass it! I am so upset and worried now so that I don't know how to explain you what is wrong. Look, my father's
brother is imprisoned at the moment for a crime. I've never been close to this "Uncle", we always had something as "a cold war" with
him. He always led a confused life. Actually I met him only several times in my life. He has the same surname as mine and logically we are
relatives of course , so his criminal biography was noticed by the official here via their computer database.
I couldn't believe my ears I have problems because of this, I spoke with the chief
manager of the official department in the airport. I begged him to understand my
situation but he refused saying that my situation didn't work for me , and he couldn't break the rule. He said
that if a person has some relatives who dealt with crime he cannot be let abroad!! The only way out is to make him to erase my surname from
their database, then I won't have any problems. I want to bribe him , because he said he could solve this question for me only if I pay
him 300 euro , so much because he'll have to risk and also share the money with
someone else there! I never did it in my life and hope to never do it again , but right now this is what has to be done urgently. So I am
going to pay him this money and I hope darling that you can help me and send me 300 euro more today asap. We are short of time,I am flying
tomorrow in the afetrnoon.
I hope you can help me my dear, I am shocked , but I know that our love will win, I am sorry I didn't mention about it earlier, I do
not consider him my relative at all, but you see because of him I have problems now. Please write me as soon as possible, your
Tanya.
PS I am sorry I ask you for the money again, darling, this situation is really crap and I contacted my dad , he cannot find money for me
urgentluy to send it, I really didn't want to ask you again but I have
no way out or I'd have to miss my flight tomorrow to you my love..
Monday, 13-08-2007
Good morning my sweetheart, I hope in the evening today we meet as
I'll fly with Austrian Airlines , the flight you mentioned , my love.
I was further confirming my trip package with the authorities here from the early morning. It appears that a Type A health insurance
(which I have)doesn't cover all the injuries and I cannot travel with it on a tourist visa. I need type "C" ,but it costs 145 EURO more
I know it doesn't cheer you up honey, I myself cannot believe how many
problems to go abroad, you see it's my first time .
Pat,it also appears to be that I had to be vaccinated against tuberculosis, but I
hadn't. If they carry out a vaccination now they'll have to wait for a
week to see the result of it. The other way is to pay them. I was told that 150 EURO would be enough. Can you help me darling with 300
EURO more urgently please? This was the problem they didn't let me go. The surname problem is solved and I don't have any problem because
of it now, but as you can see there's another misfortune.
Dear Pat you've got a right to decide . If we meet I'll thank God for this and
shower you with kisses. And destiny will never depart us, misfortune will never
trouble us. know you have arranged so many things for us already so far and now I claim more expenses on my part....Please forgive me ,
but I count for your help only.I am so sorry i didn't meet your parents, anyway hope to see them when they come home after their
trip. I'm here waiting for your reply, my darling.
With lots of love and a big long kiss to you, sincerely yours Tanya
PS- honey make sure you can send it shortly, we are short of time darling
Monday, 13-08-2007 (later)
Patrick, I am not flying on today's flight..I can take only tomorrows
one and only if you help me again..I am sorry if it sounds like a bullshit but I cannot believe it myself...such misfortune, maybe it's
a check for our true love and bond..? You see, I got the money but when I went out of the western union office a guy
ran up to me and snatched my bag off and ran away with it. He took the
money, I'm in despair. I don't know what to do now. There was my Ukrainian passport as well. Thanks God I do not need it to travel to
France. I've already been to the police department and complained, they said they'll try to help but it will take time and there is no
guarantee that they will find him and even if they do I don't know when the money will be
returned to me.
It's some kind of misfortune. I'm so sorry, I should have been more careful. I want to fly and be with you more than anything .
I'm so looking forward to seeing you.
I know that you are very disappointed. Please forgive me, I lost the money. I don't know what to do now. I only hope for your
help.Can you do it the last time for me and I will fly by all means tomorrow then?
Sincerely, your Tanya

Darling, Patrick, I have to tell you that I am righting you rigt now
fro the hospital in Kiev. I asked the doctors in the premature exam cabinet to let me email you a line, because you would be waiting for
my mail , I know.
There is a computer in the room, they usually don't let their patients
to use it but I said them that this is very urgent so they allowed me.
Honey Pat I got the money you sent me and then I went to the Ambulance
Center near here to ask them what kind of pills should I take if I had
pains in the stomach; I really had a very sharp pain in my stomach from the very morning.
they urgently examined me and it appeared that with the right side press my
stomach hurt me so that I cried when a doctor pressed. I was told I need an Urgent Endoscopic laser surgery and had my appendix
removed. It is good that they will use this method as it is less traumatic. The doctors say that stress could trigger an appendix
attack. So now Im in the hospital , getting ready for this operation.
I am so scared but they say it's simple and doesn't leave any scar.
I hope you get this in time and don't go to the airport to mweet me.
I can be free in two maximum three days, so I plan to fly as soon as let me go. darling please ask the agency Irina the agent to talk with
the airlines for chaging the flight again. I will be able to reply you and check main noty sooner than in a day my love. Please forgive
me it's probably a big dissapointmen5t for you I know but please please my love have a patience a little buit more and your tanya will
come on thursday or frieday , depending on how they can change my flight.
i pray you take this message good and you don't keeop a grudge on me.
your Tanya

Hi my name is George and received this letter from my pen pal today, lately I have discovered your web site after searching Omsk, Russia and I am very concerned that I am being set up for a $300.00 U.S. scam.
Could you read the letter and let me know what you think please. I have attached the swim suit picture that was attached to the last letter I received.
P.S. is there anyway of me proving that this was real or on the level because everyone wants to find someone right. Thanx George

Hi my lovely friend George.
I am very glad to read your letter again. I have not a car, sorry...
It is very difficult purpose to buy a car for such young woman as me.
I am not male and do not have alot of money for such satisfaction like car.
You interested about what kinds of food I like. You know I like free potato, French Meat, Russian borsh (soup with beet), blini and pizza.
Most off all I love a comedy and historical movies. I love such movies
as Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura, The Mask with Jim Carry, Troy, Gladiator, Brave heart and many others.
I never wrote to you about that I have a hobby - I collect old coins.
I have about 35 in my collection. I began to be engaged in it when to me was about 6 years. I very much like to do it but I have no many
money to increase a collection new copies. But I do not worry about it
because I treat quietly this. I think that it is pleasant to you.
You know for these some letters I have fallen in love with you very strongly. I for a long time did not test anything to men, and you seem
have demented me. I understand that it a little bit silly so quickly to fall in love but it is valid so. I never thought that I shall fall
in love with persons with help Internet but I so have strongly grown fond of you that to me now not important as we have got acquainted
with you because the main thing this that that I love you madly and it
is very healthy...
I very much want to arrive to you but unfortunately I have no such opportunity. Yesterday I have learned all about my trip
to you, I must have registration of visa and passport, so I must pay about 250-290 $ US for those things. This amount includes: payment for
visa and passport registration, payment for promptness because sometimes registration borrow 4-6 months. Also this price
include Interview in embassy and medicalsurvey. (I must have blood testing before leaving) I will have work visa so my firm
will pay for tickets so you must not worry about tickets or money for tickets because my working firm will pay for this. But I must ask
money help from you for payment for registration of my work visa and passport to your country, because I do not have any money right now.
So please try to find way to help me this money sooner, so I might pay
for it because as you may understand it will borrow sometime. So if you would send money help that amount today or tomorrow I will be able
to pick up your money help faster and pay for it, so it would take
less time... I dream to appear about you and to present you the present love, the present
passion which you did not test already for a long time.
It would very pleasant for me if you will be able to help to me amount
for visa and passport sooner.
So if you will help to me this money it would nessesary to do it via Money Gram or Western Union transfer system because we have only these
kinds of transfer syster in our city. Also as I have heard it is faster and easy, because sending money via mail or post office is some
dangerous like I have already explained to you, even our post office has attention papers "Do not sending money and expensive things via
post". Also it is not nesesary to send via any other system because simply we do not have any others really.
If you could make it today it will be very pleasant for me.
So I could pay money for registration of the passport and the visa that
will borrow about 2 weeks in time.
Though if you cannot will make it today it would very pleasant to me to know the date when you can make it really that I have
calculated the days and most quickly appeared with you.
George, I want to be only yours.
I love you and very much I miss on you.
Yours and only yours Tatyana Martynova
