Natalya Zavirohina
I'm a single, unattached American male, white, 43 years old, self-employed and quite handsome.
The first letter from "Natalya" arrived unsolicited in my e-mail inbox, thanking me for a previous message I
didn't recall. I had not registered with or contacted any entity representing Russian women.
Her story was that she would be traveling out of her country on a student work visa and wanted a friendly
contact. The story seemed plausible, so I wrote a simple response inviting her to my city. I even
offered her a part-time job. To my surprise, she wrote back with some sexy photos, and we began to
correspond. In her fourth message she asked what country I lived in, and in the sixth, what
international airport was closest.
She went into great detail about her background, and even included her home address. As a woman,
she was clearly the whole package---beautiful, ambitious, educated, hard-working and loyal. She liked
older men and seemed quite fond of me!
We corresponded for almost two and a half weeks. During that time she supposedly left her home town,
flew to Moscow, secured a room, and made arrangements to leave the country. I received 12 e-mail
messages in all, most with images attached. I answered all of her questions but neglected to ask any of my own.
The tenth message contained a desperate plea for money, almost as an afterthought. She claimed she
didn't realize she would have to purchase a round-trip ticket in order to secure a visa. She requested I
wire her $980 to cover the additional airfare, money she would repay after she found a job. As proof of
legitimacy, she included her Moscow address and attached an image of her passport.
I wasn't at all surprised by the request, but was more than a little disappointed; I had hoped it wasn't all
a scam. A little research on this website confirmed my suspicion. Still, I went along. I responded with a
logicalargument against loaning money. I did the same with the next two requests. I told no one about
the incident.
The whole thing reminds me of an old Russian fable about a fake woman who calls out to a man in the
frozen wilderness, luring him to his death. Such is the power of a beautiful woman!

*******************Message #1**********************
Hello!!! :-)
It was very nice to receive a message from you!
it is my first time I try to correspondence with man in internet world.
I do hope you will be enough patient to understand my writing. I want you to know that I have only good intentions and I don`t have
big secrets. The thing is that I will work abroad for three months or so and I would like to meet a nice man to be my guideor just be good
friend to spend time with.I think that it is hard enough to live in foreign town
without friends and also I have never been abroad. I am from so small town here in Rusian Federation,I am afraid to be
lost. I want to see real life and it is impossible to see without person who knows all sides
of the life. It doesn`t matter what age is he or what is his eyes color, I just want to know that
he is kind and open-hearted inside. I don't want to live in Rusian Federation because I have not any chances here,it is hardly possible to explain it by the first time but
I want you to know my plans. In Ru ssia many young girls also want to start a new life abroad, so many of them used a special program "W ork and travel"
for young people who wants to work abroad. I also decided to do so and to use it.
This program just helps to register documents and gives suitable work in any
state(town)of USA, Canada or Europa (or other big country) . I just need to choose.I already started to
register documents and now I need to decide in which city I want to work.
I`m 26 years old and I`m not afraid of work (I shall work as the seller in shop or
cafe of a fast food). I think it is the right way for me, I am lost here,and I think that I
look pretty enough to find a better place. I never been abroad so I decided to find a friend abroad and make his city to be my
destination. I want to repeat the same way,it is my only chance to change my life.
I am full of plans and different dreams. I have red hair and my eyes are brown! I think I look very good, but
first of all I want to be beautiful inside. I do hope that you will be not disappointed to meet me in the real
life if we will meet :-) Well,I will close this letter and I do hope to get your reply.
I will leave my town in a few days or so (I can't tell you everything exactly right now) and I would like to be sure that I have a man who waits for me
there. I will work all day and I would like to find a man to spend all free time
together to get to know each other better. if you have any interest to meet me I will be more than happy to meet you too. My be it
sounds silly but I just don't want to be alone in the evenings,and I want to be sure in advance that
somebody waits for me! I think that my e-mail starts to be too long so I will tell you all details about me
and my life that you would like to know in next e-mails if you will like my pictures and will want to meet
me!
I send my photos.
>> With best regards Natalya! (this is my real full name).
P.S
I'm responding from my private email address. I hope I'm your type of girl, I'm not sure you like Slavic
appearance!! I hope so! OK, I will wait for your answer. When I hear back from you I will write more
things about myself and send more pics!
> Why you not send from own email address?

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 Friday 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 980 US
dollars from your side with all travel needs and living here till my flight! (I had 1180 dollars, but flight from
Kemerowo, 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.
Please send it today by Western Union or Money Gram I will write you details:
>> !!! <<
Send it to Russia, Natalya Zavirohina !!!!This is my full name!
Also I've got an advice to send you a scan copy of my passport in case you need to confirm my details.

But please for any case write down more info. The address where I'm staying:
komsomolskiy prospekt 41 - 12, post code (zip) 119270.
I rent a small room In an apartment of an old policeman here, it's cheaper then hotel.The address of the closest Western
Union (or MoneyGram) here is:
"OTPBANK" Moscow, komsomolskiy prospekt 45, stroenie 1
I have some money but it's not enough to complete my trip. Please send me 980 US dollars and I will
complete my trip! After it please write me all details about the transfer -
your FULL NAME and Money Transfer Control Number!!

I will call you as soon as I receive it.
When I receive the money I will pay for my trip and only then the embassy will put all final stamps on my documents.
I've bought you few souvenirs with Russian attributes!!! I'm sure you will like them! If you need something
more please let me know, they are not expensive. Also I bought two boxes of Russian chocolate! I hope
so much when I come to you we will like each other! You are already very special to me!
Please when I come to you tell me more about you and your country!
I will listen to everything you tell me and I will do everything you tell me! I trust you really much!
I hope you will not do something to hurt my feelings.... I think you are really good man. I will never do
anything to hurt yours!!! By statistics Moscow is the second most expensive city in the world after Tokyo... everything is so expensive
here... and I have to pay for my rent and food and buy tickets.. please help me..
