Lubov Smirnova
(Makeevka, Ukraine)
Osanna agency Don Bass
I am 37 years old from Switzerland - I started communicating with this lady
a few months ago - Her name is Lubov Smirnova. I knew her from
match.com. I was just coming out from another scammer relationship in which I had lost
some money. However, what seem unique to me with this one was her constant
reference to God - she seemed quite real and apparently she didn't even ask
for money, but constantly referred to her mother who was sick and the
medical fees, which seems to be too expensive for her. I was quite outright
- I told her, I wasn't going to be responsible until I can sit down with
her and talk - however, I was so stupid to send her a 50$ for our communication.
What made me suspicious was the fact that she made a mistake on one of her
later in which she referred to me with a name of somebody else - the whole
scam came clear when I phone to the agency (Don bass - which is the real
scammer) - she was not the same Lubov who is so tender but a cold voice of a
monster. That's when I checked the blacklist and found the Devil - a pretender who comes as an angle of light!! The
following are the wonderful sweet sensation of this devil.
Letter
Hello, my dear Mr. Bin!
I am very glad to continuer our correspondents. I hope that everything
was OK with you and your relatives those days. I want to thank you for
you. You change my life for better like the spring sun can change the weather for a few
days-you are my life and my dreams. It is so wonderful to feel such way... But
our life consists not only of good but bad time too. I am worry about my
mother- she is in hospital now. Our doctors are good but the medicines which
she need cost a great amount of money but the others help her very slowly. it
is very difficult to understand that you can do nothing to help such person as
your mother. I hope that The God hears my prays and helps her to recover as
soon as possible. Sorry, I don't want to bother you with my problems and
troubles but I feel that you are kind man and can understand what I feel these
days. I am an optimist and believe only in better... Please, take care about
yourself. I wish you to be health. I send you my kisses waiting for your soon

Hello, my dear Mr. Bin!
I feel myself so unusual way- you are so far from me and I have never seen
you but it seems for me that I have known you for ages. I trust you so that
ready to follow behind you to the end of Earth... Of course, I understand quite
well that only our meeting show us the true reality of things- and help us to
feel, if it is possible to create the family. Please, forgive me but I have no
possibility to click see you photos and albums, I have seen only your beautiful

full of beauty and mystery at the same time... Thank you very much for them. I
like you very much,Mr. Bin. I wish to be behind you kissing every inch of

so sad that these peaces of paper which we call- money means more in our
life then the people lives. It is terrible. But I hope that the God is with us and

so young when our father died. I don't want that this illness take our mother

Letter
My sweetheart,hi!
I am so happy to receive your letter,my future!!! Mr. Bin,I trust on you, my
intuition whispers me that you are the right person for me... Thank you very
much for your prayers. My mother is much better now but lack of money to
buy the necessary medicines play its role in her recover. But I am sure that our
prayers help her a little,my Angel. Our God is so kind for His children that He
is constantly taking care about us,human beings!!! I'm really happy that
I met you in my life. I don't know what I would do either if I don't meet you, Mr.
Bin. I'm certain that you and I are meant to be together. I just know that deep
within my heart that this is all happening for a reason and though it may not be
easy but in the end it will all be worth it and we will be happy with each other.
I am so thankful that you have come into my life and one day I will be
able to show you how much I appreciate you, dear. I wish we could have
met years earlier but it is meant to happen this way so I can't change
destiny. In life there are up and down cycles and at certain timeswhen you are up things don't
cross your path at that time which you want, they sometimes cross your path
when you are on a down cycle but if something crosses your path then, you
will appreciate this more. I'm not sure I am making any sense here and I will
explain this to you when we meet. When we meet I have so much to say which I don't think I
could properly convey in a letter. You are my inspiration and you make
me think that anything is possible and I never have felt this way
before. I hope that you feel the same, my dear Mr. Bin. I must tell you that I
feel very positive and excited about our future. I have to tell you bye for now,
dear. I'm thinking about you all the time...
Take care,
your Lubov.

Maria
Saleeva (Norilsk, Russia)
I am a white American male, single, no kids, age 37. I received contact from
this person through match.com. I corresponded with her for about four weeks. I became suspicious when she declared her love to me and then asked
for money later on. I am familiar with the visa process, so I did not send any
money. I continued to communicate with this person since I found no scam
info on her. I finally found a similar picture at www.firstdream.com under
known scammers ( Elena Koldyreva from Ekaterninburg ). Attached are several photos, "money" letter, her given info, and e-mail routing info.
She claims to be from Norilsk, but does not describe the weather accurately.
This town is closed to foreigners, so going there is out of the question. Did not
reply to my meeting her in another town in Russia.
Initial letter:
Hello! Let me introduce myself. I am a nice-looking girl from Russia.
My name is Maria, I am 27 years old. I am rather tall (170cm), slim. My hobbies
are music and reading. I am fond of sports. Ia m good at badminton. Besides,
I like walking on foot. It seems to me that nature is the most harmonic and
beautiful thing in the world. And I often try to spend my free time in the open
air. I also like to travel. It helps us to meet other people, get new interesting
useful information and communicate. I have graduated from the University. I
am a teacher of a secondary school. I speak English and a little bit German. I
am a sincere, faithful, kind and tender girl. I like to laugh and enjoy
life. I have a good sense of humour and I like jokes. I don't drink or
smoke. I am interested in marriage. I have never been married because
it is a very serious question for me. But I hope to create a family
someday. I would like to meet a SINCERE, kind, tender and honest man
with similar interests and values. To my mind, the main human value is
kindness. If you are kind everything will be fine in your life. People
must be kind to each other and try to do only good things. In spite of
today's world problems we must not forget taht we are people and all
in this world, in our lives depends upon us. A man can build and also
can destroy! But it is much better to be a builder, isn't it? If you
are interested in my personality, please write me about yourself.
Money letter: ( 7th letter in chain
)
Hi my love John,
I am very happy to read your letter, as always. Thank you so much for your nice letter! Well, I looked for visa one
else yesterday and to me it is necessary to pay 45 dollars for the
visa and 20 dollars registration I went to embassy and at me was 50
dollars in hands, I have told them, that I have 50 dollars and they
have told well, give 50 dollars. And me have started registration.
They started to make the visa for me. I so have understood that for the visa of this
money will suffice, because to me so have told. But today I went there and to
me have told, that to me gave the visa that it to finish registration urgently it is
necessary to bring all those documents, i.e. pass inspection in hospital X-ray
and it to cost 100 dollars and more and more registration and made many
documents, foreign passport, i.e. all these will cost 350 dollars US. You
understand? I have told, and it is possible later I give them these
money, because I do not have not enough money to receive all these documents, at
me at once have shouted, have scolded and have told, that for you then have
begun to make the visa if you do not have not enough money, but I speak, that
the visa costs 45 dollars and registration 20, but to me have not explained at
once to receive the visa, is necessary that were applied all necessary
documents, I has certainly apologized, and has told, that I shall bring soon,
one of these days. To me have told, that they may wait about 5 days and if I
shall not bring the necessary documents they will stop to make the
visa to me. And it is even worse, that if I not shall have time, to me
have told that may not make to me the visa more, they will take offence at me, for my acts. But I
promised, that I shall make all correctly and to me have believed. Therefore I
very much ask you, try to borrow from somebody money if you now do not
have it, at the friends for example. Because to me now in such situation the
help nobody may, I searched already, but not any successes. Therefore I
hope only for you, you one to me may the help. Because I believe in
you, and in both of us, that all at us will be Ok! And I hope, that all will be good. I
know it. I ask you to send this money to me as soon as possible. Please send
to me 300 dollars in these 5 days. Ok? It's very important. I wait! And visa
was finally done in 2 weeks or faster and will be good for three month. So, I
want to tell that the money better to send by the bank system called Western
Union. This system is very reliable also transferring money is carried out during
minutes. By the way you must send the money on my passport data. Here
is my data:

Saleeva (Chelyabinsk, Russia)
I'm a single man who is 34 years old, never married and have relatives in
Sweden and Norway. I was looking for a woman in Russia or the Ukraine because
I have heard that they are very good women from my relatives in Scandinavia.
My first letter from her was the 30th of January and we are still actively
e-mailing each other so she doesn't know that I'm on to her. I noticed
on page 71 (please check that page)
different addresses are used. So there may be more than a couple people scamming out there with her pictures.
I didn't find out until now that there were black lists and I may be reporting on another lady soon.

I am a 46 year old man from the USA.
This is the third scammer that has contacted me this year.
I am getting smarter about identifying them now. From the
very beginning I knew this lady was a scammer. First she contacted me
from my profile on Friend Finders...same as the other scammers. Her
email address was similar masha20021@pochtamt.ru
the pochtamt.ru is used my many of the scammers on your list. She fell
in love with me by the third letter and was asking for money on the
fourth. Of course she asked that I send the money by Western
Union like all the other scammers. I played along but this time
I sent her four identical copied or pasted letters I had sent my
mother and the photos I attached were of my dog! Never once did
she comment on the letters or photos...of course not she never reads
the letters or opens the attachments. I will not bore you with any
more details because they are the similar or the same as the others.
I will paste the first and money letter along with some photos.
I hope she enjoys my dog photos because that is all she got from
me.

Marina Svetlova
(Murmansk, Russia)
I'm very glad to finally find you list. I was scammed by Marina Svetlova of
Murmansk, Russia. This happened around Aug 2001 to Oct 2001. I actually
sent her money several times. It was a little rewarding to see her pictures and
letters she sent to others was the same as some of that she sent to me. I
actually received about 60 letters from her. She was to fly to me 2 times. I
went to airport - no Marina. Thank you for your services. Maybe some other
honest hard working guys won't get ripped off.
Her e-mail address at that time was Marinochka_200@rambler.ru
I have since destroyed all pictures and letters because I felt pretty stupid.

Initial letter from Olesya
Hello,
Me name is Olesya.
After Valentine day after all my girlfriends have left to meet with the husbands
and guys I has decided, that the friend with whom I might connect all further
life too is necessary for me, but such person with whom I would not be happy
is not necessary for me.
My number ID A1968018
I shall tell to you slightly about myself, me 26 years, I live in city of Samara in
spite of the fact that it is very beautiful city, here very difficultly to find the
good person with which it is possible would be to connect the life, the
purposes of people in our city very much low, and the girlfriend has advised
me to look same people as well as I in the Internet, I and have made I have
gone to the Internet of cafe and have found a site which to me the girlfriend
has advised, at her mum as has got acquainted with the person from Germany.
From all countries which were offered me on a choice, I have decided to
choose USA, on films and under stories I know, that people for which his (its)
personal honour and decency is appreciated more than any petty interests live
in this country. After short viewing structures I have seen yours which most
approaches me, and have decided to write to you in hope that I shall receive
from you the answer. Excuse I has distracted from the story about itself
slightly. As I to you already spoke me 26 years I live in Russia, city of
Samara, my weight makes 54 kgs at growth of 171 centimeter. At me higher
education on a speciality the ecologist, but on the trade I do not work, as on it
(her) it is very difficult to find work. I work to help the bookkeeper in the
company which is engaged in sale of home appliances. I live one without
parents, my parents were lost at a fire of 6 years back, my grandmothers and
grandfathers communists, my relatives were noblemen when Russia king corrected earlier, but there was it for a long time. I never supported ideas
communists, they have resulted the country which once was great power, in
full route. But about it I shall not continue to me this subject not so it is
pleasant have shot.
I live together with mine cat Murka, she (it) my best friend! She (it) also likes
to ask to have a meal black color at me, in exchange on it she (it) may sit next
hours me and purr. Unfortunately I badly know the English language so I the
first time shall be to use the translator, but I go on rates, on studying language.
With impatience I wait from you for the answer.

there are 350 bucks. It is very expensive for me. I do(make) my grant 60
bucks per one month.
From email #9:
I talked to my girlfriend from travel
agency. She speaks that visa B-2 is necessary for me. The visa is registered 2 weeks and operates 3 months then.
It to cost 350 dollars. Tickets to cost 1200 dollars there and back. It is very
many money. Unfortunately I have no such money. If you may help me with
money to speed up our meeting, you may send money through Western Union. The
address of bank:
AK BARS Bank
1 Dekabristov street
Kazan 420066 RUSSIA.
Olga Yureva.
Money was only requested in these two emails.
After finding your site 2 days ago, and praying to God that what I found was
not true, I contacted MatchClick.com one hour ago with what I had learned. I
will inform you of the outcome on their part when I am contacted by them. I
have included a copy of the email below:
Dear Sirs:
I recieved an email on 1/20/02 from your site about a possible match with a
girl that uses the name russiangirl. Her name is Olga and we have corresponded heavily since then, with plans on meeting in the future. I know
this is sounding like a "true love found" letter, but let me assure you that
it is not. The saga took a severe left turn about 3 days ago when I discovered a
website discussing Russian girls scamming men for money for non-existent
plane tickets and visas. That website is http://www.womenrussia.com/blacklist_summary.htm
I believe that she is one of those listed on that website, because a picture
that she sent me is listed under three different names on that website.
Those three names are:
Zinaida Petrova
Elena Votrina
Elena Volodina
The name she used with me was Olga Yureva.
And to make matters worse, the letters on that website all sound eerily familiar to the ones I have
recieved. I have copies of all 15 emails she has sent me, along with all of
the photos she has sent. She suddenly changed her email address 2 days ago
to olga_ur@mailru.com.
Her old email address was
olga555@pochtamt.ru.
I hope that this is coincidence, but I fear I am wrong.
I hope this email
saves the next person from certain heartache and possible financial ruin.

Olga
Yurieva (Kazan, Russia) - 2
I'm a single dad of 1 daughter, living in
Australia. I was contacted by this person "Olga Yurieva" through the Freindfinder website.
I have seen most of the letters she has sent me on your website, and her
photos also. When it came time to "give money for a visa" I decided it was
time to do some checking, and luckly I found this website! She is also listed
under these names on your website; Anna Garanina Vladimirovna / Natasha Kuvshinova / Elena (Kazan Russia)
I wont bother copying the emails as most of them are already listed on the website.
I'll attach only a single photo as you have them all too!!
Thank goodness for this website!!
Update on possible information on the whereabouts of this person for those
who have been scammed.
Upon checking the details of the emails this person sent to me I have found
this:
Received: from mpool.relinfo.ru ([195.161.208.129]) by
mx01.******.com.au with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.4617);
Tue, 26 Feb 2002 22:44:24 +1100
Received: from andron (47.dialup.mari-el.ru [195.161.214.47])
by mpool.relinfo.ru (X.X.X/X.X.X) with ESMTP id OAA23500
When I checked dialup.mari-el.ru I used www.mari-el.ru and
I found that this is a Russian Internet service provider, providing dial up accounts.
This information will be of value to those who are
forwarding complaints to the FBI, and will provide a possible trace to the person who is sending these
emails.
This person obviously has an internet account with this company. Everything is
traceable on the internet now days, all you have to do is contact the company,
and match the times the emails was sent, with the company's log of who was
accessing the free email account in question, in my case it was pochtamt.ru
They can match the IP address used to access that website, with the time, and
then you have the dialup account used to take your money !!
With that a name and address can be retrieved from the dialup company in
Russia and the FBI can go to work.
Thanks for helping us all out.
Nik.
