It seems to me that the men who have been "scammed " or conned" are fools to themselves. Most of the pictures they post are of women who are blonde, young, displaying cleavage, or in swimwear. Alarm bells should ring when a middle aged American (the most stupid race on earth and a danger to all of us because of that) thinks a 25 year old blonde would be interested in him. Even more worrying are the number of men who have sent money to these women. If they fall in love with you after two e-mails, they are using you. Avoid the "glamour" pictures and the money requests and you can find lots of genuine Russian girls. They are truly lovely.

Good hunting guys!

Ina Adamova (Minsk, Belarus)

She used to be single and did not have any children just a few months ago, now she is " divirced" and "has a wonderful son"! I never knew those things with kids could happen so quickly. At least, she is still a Doctor and still enjoys playing tennis, piano and singing. She was very happy that I exist in the World! I think she is a very happy person. By the way, I never mentioned anything about German to her! Watch out for this one.

Letter

Dear XXXXX, 
I hope my letter will bring you as much happiness as your message did for me.Unfortunately i can not speak German - only English. Well, now, I will tell you how we got connected and who I am : You can see the way I look from the picture I attach - just normal girl. I live and work in Minsk, the capital of Belarus , I am a Doctor, divirced and have a wonderful son. Since a few years ago I started to understand that my life is not full and can not be happy unless I find  the second part of my soul in this World, the part that I would like to be together for the rest of my life and die  together in one day - like we read in an old kind tail-story when we were little. To be honest, I have many friends , but nobody special in my life, an there is a feeling of missing something very important within my heart.  I am very romantic girl, I play the piano and sing, when I have inspiration. May be one day I will play something very romantic only for you? I dream that we could hardly wait the morning in oder to look at each other again, and would be so happy that just hoped that life could never end. I dream to build such a cosy home that not the best holiday in the World could superseed the warm feeling to returt safely to it's ellegance.And, in the warm, cozy, romantic evenings we would watch the blazing fire in  the fireplace, discuss the problems of the day or, just be quiet together. Do you like sport? I do. I play quite good tennis, specially in the summer, I like swimming a lot in a long distance in the sea, when I was a little girl, I used to tranee gymnastic for many years, and now, at least twice a week I go to the gym, where I tranee to stay limber and flexible, and, I still can do the split. I would be very happy if you could send me your photo, if it is possible. Please, feel free to ask me any questions and to write me more about you. There are so many things I would like to tell you, and so many things I  would like to know about you, but, for now, I am content just to know, that you exist in this World! 
Have a very nice day ! 
Sincerely Your. Ina
 


Elena Moroz (Minsk, Belarus) 

My name is Skip and I am from L.A., California. I started to correspond with Elena, mid December of 2001. I found her on the "lovechaser.com website #6334, but later found her on Americansingles.com.We wrote back and forth some 20 or 30 letters before it abruptly ended in mid March of 2002. Elena seemed very sincere from the beginning. Over a period of time Elena hinted at needing money to come visit me in America. She insisted she come here and for me not not to go to Minsk. She would not give me her last name or address for a really long time even though I asked her for them several times. I had a private investigator look for Elena Moroz and he could not find her anywhere. Her address is non-existent. Elena is so good at her deception, she would spend the money on long distance phone calls. I suppose this would be considered to be a small investment compared to the $2078 she tried to get me to send her and her "travel agent friend" for tickets, a $600 visa that are actually issued for free from the US Embassy to Belarussians. (there is a only $45 application fee).
When she finally realized that I would never send her money but would only buy her an unrefundable electronic airline ticket, and that she wouldn't get a dime from me at least until she got to the States, she finally gave up. She had to be very vicious about it though by ending with the most incredible love letter full of beautiful promises she never intended to keep. But, I got the last laugh because I never spent a dime on her! 

My first doubts about her came on December 30 after I had offered to buy her an airline ticket to come visit me. At the time, I did not realize that it is practically impossible for a lady from her country to get a tourist visa to come to America. 

Here is her response to my suggestion: 

I like your idea, skip, to come to visit you in your country, but I haven't got very much money maybe I'll need some help. Can you help me with the money for my trip?

I responded back with: 

Elena, I think if you will read my last letter to you, I said that I would buy you an airline ticket to come visit me. So do not worry about the money. All you have to do is get your visa and get on the airplane and soon, you will be by my side. You will need to get a passport and I want you to ask the American consulate what you need to get a tourist visa. I don't know if you need a special invitation from me. Please find this out and then let me know  when you would like to come and for how long you would like to stay.

Then on January 6 she wrote: 

What do you think if I'll come to your country to visit you for some time? Will you be able to help me with some money if I need any?

On January 7, I wrote: 

Yes, I would love to have you come to see me in California! I would buy your airline ticket and you would not need much during your visit. But, Elena, I have been told that it is almost impossible to get you a tourist visa. But, I do not listen to others and give up so easily. I will ask the government what is required to have you come for your visit. If it is impossible for you to get a tourist visa, then I will just come to visit you. Would you like that?

On January 12 she ignores my statement about the difficulty of getting her a visa. 
Her response was: 

Hi, dear Skip! 
It's really nice to hear from you. You're always on my mind, and I think of us very often. I'd also like to meet with you very soon, but I think we'll have to be patient, as it really needs time to arrange everything, to get the visa. I know that it's quite possible to get a tourist visa here to USA. But this all needs time and surely money. What do you think, how much money shall I have to be enough for my visit to you?  Maybe, I haven't got such amount of money? But I'd like to meet with you very much; I'm waiting for our meeting and thinking of it constantly.

On January 12, I sent her this letter. Note that I have asked for her street address and her last name

Hello Dear Elena! 
I have been waiting so impatiently for your letter and I was sitting at the computer when it finally came. You can imagine how excited I was to receive it! I have heard that it is very difficult to a woman in Ukraine to get a tourist  visa to the USA but maybe I have been given the wrong information. If you think that you can get one, that that would be wonderful. I could write a letter to you to give to the American Consulate in Minsk, requesting them to issue you the visa to come visit me. I think that may help you in getting this visa. As far as any expenses for this, I will pay for anything you need. You just need to let me know how much and where to send it. I will also pay for your round trip airfare. I will buy the ticket and you will just need to pick it up at the airport before the flight. I have the money for the airfare saved already. But, Elena, I would want you to fly from Kiev instead of Minsk. The reason for this is that the cost to fly from Minsk is more than twice as much as is the cost to fly from Kiev. I have heard that you can take a bus from Minsk to Kiev for $20.00. You will not need much money when you come to visit me. Only what you want to buy any souvenirs and whatever you are comfortable with bringing. You can stay at my home and I will sleep on the couch in the living room and you can sleep in my bedroom. Would this be acceptable for you?  However, if it turns out that it is too difficult for you to come to America, I will come to visit you instead. I would love to see you country very much so this is not a problem and it will be so very easy to do. I just will need to renew my passport and get visas for Minsk and Kiev. I would like you to send me your address to your home and if you have a telephone, I would like that also. Elena, I don't even know your last name! Can you tell me what it is?" 

On January 24, I finally received a response to my last letter. She told me the cost of the computer time at the internet cafe' as being $50 per month. This I think is a little high since she doesn't need to use a translation service. Also, She is now trying to call me on the telephone. This is very convincing that she must be serious. But is was all just a small investment for her because she wants me to send her a very large amount of money for the Travel Agency and airline ticket. This will become obvious in a few more letters. She did not give me her last name and address after my request in the last letter. There was a 12 day delay between our letters. 

Here is some of my response to her letter: 

.......I don't want it to take 2 months before you can get the visa. So I came up with a wonderful idea. I will call the embassy and find out what they think of my idea. Here it is! I will mail you a letter with my formal invitation for you to get a guest visa to come visit me.  But, I will also send a certified letter to the US Embassy in Minsk with the same invitation. It will have your name and address. I will include a copy of my birth certificate to prove that I am a US citizen. I will also get the invitation notarized. Everything will be very legal and hopefully, they will speed up the process of issuing you your visa. What do you think of this idea, Elena? Now, just in case you still can't get a visa, I will just have to come to visit you in Minsk. Would this be OK with you?............

On Jan 30, her response was: 

..........I think I'd like to come to visit you first and then if things will work out for us and we decide to be together, we'll return together to Minsk and I'll take you to my mother. But first I'd like to come to your country and to see your life there.

I sent her the following response on Jan 30. I have asked her again for her last name and address

...........I really like it very much that you want to come visit me. I would love that very much. I have been doing a lot of research about this possibility and I am finding that there may be difficulties. In general, it is hard to get a visa to come to America because of the terrorist attack last September.  I know that the US Embassies in all countries are very cautious about issuing visas unless they are sure that the applicant will definitely want to only visit and not try to stay. I have also heard that if someone gets turned down for a visa, then later, when they apply for the fiancé' visa, they may get rejected or  they may have to  wait 6 months or a year. But Sweetheart, I don't know if this is true or not. I think we should speak to the US Consulate there in Minsk and tell them what we want to do. If we are completely open with them, they may be impressed and will then be helpful.  In my last big letter, I also mentioned that I should write you a formal invitation to come for your visit. I will include proof that I am a U.S. citizen as this seems to be their worry. I would send them a copy of my birth certificate and the invitation will be sent to them certified and notarized so they will know that it is real. I will also send you this same invitation so they will know that you are truly the one I am inviting............................ Elena, here is something I found at the website for the U.S. Embassy in Minsk. This is information that you will need to be familiar with I think with this information and my invitation, you probably will not have any difficulty in obtaining a visa. Let me know if you need any help with the cost of the fees.

Here is the data from the website: 
(Here, I cut and pasted data from the US Embassy in Minsk for visa applications.) 
(Here is the part in the letter about her name and address:) 

You know Sweetheart, I too have been a little frustrated about getting you to tell me your last name and for you to give me your address. I will need them for your invitation and for something else that I have dreamed up for you. (smile!!!) So I would like you to give me this information in your next letter.  Please?????

I sent her another letter on Feb 2 again asking for her name and address. She had also stated that she would call me that weekend and she didn't. On Feb 7, I finally get her to give me her last name and address. But there seems to be a warning not to use them. She also said she would call every day, (which I thought was ridiculous) 

Here is what she wrote: 

Hi, Skip! 
It's nice to hear from you. Don't be afraid I got two letters of yours. You  know, I'm very sorry for haven't phoned you this weekend. You know I had  some problems at work and had to work extra time this weekend. And, as I  have to go to the Internet café to communicate with you. I couldn't get there quickly and let you know about everything. So, I'm very, very sorry for this. But now as I can call you every day I'll try to phone you as soon as possible. If it depends only on me, I'd have called you long ago, but the circumstances are against me, and I so much want to hear your voice. And no, don't doubt I'm not punishing you at all. That wasn't even on my mind! I'm not so mean as you think me to be. What concerns flowers on St. Valentine's Day, I must confess, that there are many problems with some flowers. There will be more problems than pleasure from getting them (if I get them at last, of course). So, I think a postcard would be quite enough. So, please, excuse me for this weekend, skip dear, but as you see I had a serious excuse. Take care. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm thinking about you even when I'm asleep. With best regards and lots of hugs and kisses for you. 
Always yours, 
Elena.

My best wishes and kisses for you dear.

On Feb 12th she has started to hint about getting money from me again. She is also lying to me about flower delivery in Belarus so that I won't send flowers to her false address. 

Here's the letter: 

Hi, Skip! 
It's nice to hear from you. I agree that we have a lot to discuss in our letters,  and first of all the details of my trip. But I can't write to you every day, as you  know I haven't got a computer at home, and the Internet café is so far away  from my home and job. It takes me a lot of time to get there. And sometimes I'm so tired after work or simply have no opportunity to get there. I think I've already described this situation to you. Of course, that would be very nice to communicate with you every day, but it's impossible. About flowers. You know there're a lot of delivering companies in Europe and in your country, and it all doesn't work in our country. There are no such companies here, so it's impossible to get flowers or anything else. Do you understand now?... 

My job is a job of a dentist. Yes, surely I'd like to meet with you as soon as possible. I'd like to see your face, to look into your eyes, to talk to you in person. Maybe I'll be able for a week or two, it depends on the Visa. I'm going to get a tourist visa and I don't need an invitation about the hotels there. I think you needn't get a visa to Minsk yet. We'll be able to return to Minsk together after my visit to you. SO, you still have some time to think if you're quite serious about your intentions. Besides, there can be some problems with money for me. Can you look on the Intern what's the price of a return airline ticket to your place? I don't know if I have enough money? Help me, please; I want to see you so badly, that I'm eager to do everything possible to make this dream come true. 
Hope to hear from you soon. Take care. 
With best regards. 
Lots of hugs and sweet kisses only for you. 
Your Elena.

On Feb 12th, I responded to her letter and here are some excerpts. By this time I have a pretty good idea that she is just trying to scam money from me.  You can see how I am making it impossible for her to get my money. 

I have already looked on the internet for the prices of tickets. The best way for you to come here or for me to go to Minsk is to fly out of Kiev. I know that it is only a $20.00 bus ride from Minsk to Kiev. The tickets in Kiev to Los Angeles, round trip, fluctuates between $600 and $800. But the price to fly from Minsk is around $3000. So, it would be better to sit on a bus and save so very much money that could be used for other things for us. Sweetheart, you don't need to worry about the cost of the tickets. I can buy them on the internet and then all you have to do is to pick them up at the airport at the time of your flight. They will be in your name so you just need to give them your identification. You should call ahead to confirm that they have them though. Just to make sure there are no problems. Now I must tell you, these tickets will be non-refundable so you must fly at the time on the tickets.

Also on Feb 12th, I confronted her on her recently updated page on her dating agency website: 

Elena, I have something of great concern that I wan to mention to you again. It  is something that I discovered just recently. I was going to the several internet dating agency sites to remove or suspend my profile. I am doing this  because I am not interested in hearing from other ladies. I only am interested in you. anyway, I did, out of curiosity go to your web page and I saw that your photo and profile are still there. This didn't bother me too much because I thought you might have just forgotten about it. But then I noticed that it had  been updated as recently as January 27th, 2002. Now I am very concerned that you really aren't serious about me. That you are still looking aggressively for other men. I know we aren't engaged or anything yet. But if we are far enough along in our relationship where I will be flying you half way around the world, I would expect you to suspend your search until we know if we are to be together. I would really like to hear what you think about this, Elena. You also did not respond to what I said about the delivery of flowers. Is there something going on that I should know about? 
I wait impatiently for your response. 
With all my love, 
Your Skip

Feb 16th: the next bunch of lies about getting the visa to come to America and also the futile excuse about the webpage. She didn't even address the fact that she had recently updated it. 

Hi dear Skip! 
Thanks for your letters again. I enjoy hearing from you, but I think we'd better talk in person instead of communication in letters only. But it's a bit of a difficulty now and we should be patient. What concerns the tickets? You can't send me tickets, because here a travel agency is buying tickets, paying and organizing the visa itself. Do you understand? They won't give me any tourist visa without purchasing the tickets for me; it's impossible they say. I don't know is it true or not, but it's exactly what they say about it. They say they should be absolutely sure about my getting there and coming back and they should hand me the tickets them selves. I do feel very serious about you, otherwise I won't waste my and your time, believe me. I'm not looking for often men. I just lost my code and can't remove my profile and photo from the web site. I just don't remember the code. And you know I'm also very concerned about you not believing me. I really don't like it at all. 
Sincerely yours, 
Elena.

Feb 18th, I sent the following: 

..............I don't understand this problem with the tickets. I am very skeptical about this travel agency. All you have to do is to go to the American Consulate in Minsk and request a tourist visa. There is a small fee to pay. You just need to show them that you are a dentist and that you have a practice to come back to. I can purchase you an airline ticket very easily and you just would need to pick it up at the airport. If this travel agency says you can't do this, then they are trying to make money from us when we don't need them. I think they are trying to take advantage of us thinking that we are stupid.

Feb 22, this is her response: 

Good morning, my love Skip , 
I was just re-reading your letter again and I wanted to tell you how Happy you make me! I love the thought of living with you every day. I  want you to be my husband! I want to see your face each morning, work  and play with you every day, and hold you so close to me every night as we go to bed. We'll talk about our day and our lives and make to each other the way people do when they are fully in love, my love, my mind is saturated with thoughts and dreams of you, my dear Skip . I've found out the cost of my trip to you, we discussed the date of my coming, but what's now? 
You don't want me to come to you… I know, it's because of money… Yes I realize, that it's very expensive and it's not easy for you to pay such money for a woman you have never met in real life, but you know I'm very sincere… and I truly want you, I truly love you and I did the my photo for you! 
It's such special feeling that I have towards you… You are the man of my dream, who has become the love of my life. Please, don't laugh at me, but it's true…I want to talk to you in real life, to hear your voice every day every night and also, to discuss our future together. I never want to lose you. You are a special and very important part of my life. I feel a desire to be near you, to take care of you, comfort when you feel bad, and to enjoy this life together with you when everything is good. I want to start a strong and happy family together with you. I want to be only yours and you to be only mine. Maybe too many "wants" of me, my dear? 
Tell me, what it is that you would like for us. I am waiting for your reply, dear Skip . 
Kiss you. 
Yours forever 
Elena.

Feb 28th, Elena is sending me the cost of her trip according to her travel agent friend. They want to charge $600 for a visa which the US Embassy issues for free. There is only a $45 application fee. The airline ticket bounces her all over Europe before arriving in the US, at a very high fee. 

Here is what she said: 

.......You know my love, Skip I'd love, I'd like to talk not only about our feelings, but about our plans over the phone, because I won't be able to talk for a long,  it's very expensive here, so, please, be ready to discuss the most important points of our meeting. And I want to warm you that it'll be very expensive for me to come to you and I don't want it to be a surprise for you….This is information that I've found out I need to get a Visa. B2 Visitor Visa Used for foreign individuals that want to visit the U.S. temporarily for tourism. Tourist visa for 3 months. The law of the republic of Belarus let  unmarried lady younger 45 leave the country only with tourist visa.  The price of it is 600$ USA.  Medical insurance is 85$ USA.  All the documents and certificates (connected with the immigration), which required after coming to the USA. The needed documents cost 200$ USA.  Passport -100$ USA.  I have to back tickets to the both ends. (It's the most important point in getting visa with the departure and arrival dates.
This is information I and my travel agent found in the Internet: http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?tovr=2001101604 
Total price for this trip: $2,078.30 
Here is a detailed description of the flight(s) you selected, along with any rules and restrictions that apply

My response on Feb 28 is as follows: 

............I told you that I would pay for your ticket. so you don't need to do that. I will buy it on the internet and have it so that you can pick it up at the  airport when you are ready to make your trip to America. As I said  before, it will be a non-refundable ticket. So you must come on the date  the ticket is written for or I will lose a lot of money. The next thing is that I want you to fly from the airport in Kiev, Ukraine. It is only about a $20 bus ride from Minsk to Kiev. The reason for this is that the cost of the ticket in Kiev is about $750 while the cost of the ticket in Minsk is 2 or 3 times more money. The airport in California that you want is in Los Angeles. The airport code is: "LAX"  You can find the prices of the flights on the internet by going to: <www.expedia.com>.................

Her response was very interesting, but she had no intention of buying her own ticket as she has no money. 

Hi dear Skip, 
It's nice to hear from you. Ok. I've thoughts a bit and I decided not to go to the travel agency. I decided to buy a return ticket myself and go to the embassy myself, and take a B2 visa. What do you think of that? Do you trust me? J Ok. Hope to hear from you soon. Take care. With love lots of hugs and kisses for you.  
Yours, Elena.

In the next letter or two, Elena and I discuss my coming to Minsk. she tries to convince me that it is too dangerous for Americans. But I try to put her mind at ease. At this point, I almost believe that I have misjudged her and she is really not trying to scam me for money. 

Here is her response on March 8th: 

Hi Skip! 
You know you've understood me wrong. I haven't quit the idea of coming to you on a V2 visa. It's the best variant for me still. And I don't know what are you afraid of? You seem to be afraid of my visit to you. Maybe you've married there and that's why you don't want me to come to you? I started thinking so, after your strange behaviors. You promised me to send money for the telephone call and no money, no result at all. I start to doubt in your honesty and sincerity. I don't' think Americans are stupid or arrogant. Besides your visit here is impossible how can I introduce you to my mother?  What should I say to her?.........Then you don't love me at all, because you don't care about me, you do care only about you. Besides, why do you have any other woman or girl there? Please, explain everything to me. Because after all our discussions. I start losing my patience. You seem not to hear me at all. You hear only yourself and you can't discuss anything because you don't listen to my words, you think you've always right and I'm always wrong.  Ok. Hope to hear from you soon. Take care. 
I still love you. 
Lots of hugs and million of kisses only to you. 
Still yours, 
Elena. 

(Is this the most insane thing you have ever read? What a flip-flop!!!!)  I was in shock, to say the least. I responded to each of these accusations and referred her to her earlier letters. 

March 10th, I tell Elena that I will now help her get a private visa by writing her a formal invitation. 
Here are some excerpts: 

So here is what I am going to do. Tonight I am going to call the U.S. Embassy in Minsk. I am going to ask them what we need to do to get them to issue you a private visa. This is different from a tourist visa. This will require me to give you a formal invitation for you to come to America to be with me. I think that if I send them a notarized formal letter with your name and address, along with the reason for your visit, and that I am accepting full financial responsibility for you, and that I will accept full responsibility to see that you  return home at the proper time, they should give you the visa. I will also send you a copy of the formal invitation to take with you to the Embassy. I think this will give us a much better chance for you to get a visa. I have heard that only about 5% of the ladies your age are ever issued a tourist visa to come to America. This has been the reason of my reluctance about your visit ever since you first said you wanted to come here. I was never thinking of myself, Elena. I was always thinking of us and our future together. 

You must also know that you will have to fly to America from Kiev, not Minsk. I have told you this before but you never responded to this statement. I have heard that it is very inexpensive to travel from Minsk to Kiev by bus. I think the ticket is only about $20.00. But you will need to check on this. 

 Now, we have much to do to make all of this happen as quickly as possible. Are you very positive that this is what you want to do?

Obviously not because she now understands that she is not going to get any money from me. So what will she do? She writes the most beautiful letter to she has ever written. But then I never hear from her again. It is her attempt to hurt me emotionally and I have to admit, I was sorry to see it end. I suppose I was hoping that I was completely wrong about her. But I was always smart enough to never send her any money. 

Here's a copy of the entire letter, dated March 10th. 

My dear, hello Skip!!! 
I am so sad I wasn't able to reach you over the phone. I had a little problem at the post office when I tried to order a collect call. Our operator didn't understand my request. But I'll try to call you next week. I can't say beforehand when I'll call you… Let it be a surprise. I want to spend my life with you Skip. I want to spend my life with you… I want you to be my man I look at every night and every morning until my final breath… And when we are both old and bent and our hair is gray, people will admire us because we have lived together and loved together for so long. Your words humble me so … my gentle heart… We have chemistry - our very first touch is going to be a spark, a flash of lightning that sets us on fire. The heat will melt ice to water, and boil water to steam - but we will only burn for each other, a blaze of desire so bright that it will dazzle everyone around us. We will burn like two  stars, orbiting each other, locked forever in an embrace so strong that the rest of the universe can only look at marvel and us… You make me smile, my dear, Skip and in smiling, dream… and then in dreaming, smile again. I admire you & want you, my love. You have taught me how powerful love is, my darling. I cannot sleep at night without saying your name. I drift along in a sea of my love for you Skip, carried by waves of longing, washed up on your shores, warmed by the light that radiates from your heart… 
Yours, Elena. 

Ain't Love Grand? 
Watch out for this one as she is very devious and will work her game for several months.

Letter 1

Hello Gregory!!! I'm so pleased that you can understand my not so good English language, that I has learned in school and in College. I'm 171 centimeters tall, my weight is 54 kg, I have medical education, I'm a child nurse. I work in children's hospital and I look after children. I live in the city Yoshkar-Ola. It is approximately in 850 kilometers from the Moscow city. I want to say you, that I love children very much. I have an experience of dialogue directly with Russian people, but they are not adapted, it is serious  also. And they drink alcohol very frequently and it not so is pleasant to me. I think, that such habit is not a gift. I want to inform, that I do not smoke, and I do not drink strong drinks. But sometimes I like to drink in the good company a small glass of grape vine, though it happens very seldom. I want to say, that I am able well to play a piano, I have finished musical school, I've studied for 6 years. I Want to inform, that I live with my mum. I have the father. My grandfather unfortunately has died, 7 years ago. I want to say, that I like various music, but mostly classical. I want to be serious. My relations with you are to find love and to create happy family. I will be pleased, if you want the same. I want to say, that I write to you from an office computer. Unfortunately I have no the computer at home. I hope, that it will not be a problem. I hope you'll answer me soon. 
Yours, Lena.

We should climb to the top not looking on obstacles which can will meet on our way, and then everything will be very well. I shall wait for your answer. 
Always yours,

Natalia Sergeevna (Ulyanovsk, Russia)
handle: nata4you (match.com)
email address: nataforyou@fromru.com

I am a 44 year divorced, white American. I originally corresponded to Natasha, aka Natalia, through match.com. We corresponded for about one month. I enjoyed her letters, she painted the picture that she was a poor Russian girl still living with her parents in a 2 bedroom apartment coz she couldn't afford to live by herself. They did not have a telephone so I could never call her. She really does not come out and say that she needs money. She lets the person being scammed volunteer it which is why I trusted her.

I eventually suggested to go over to her city to meet her and her parents and she talked me out of it by saying that she has heard that some American guys that have come over to see their Russian girls never made it to their destination, insinuating that it was a dangerous place and that she would never forgive herself if something ever happened to me. So, she suggested that since she has never been abroad before that she would love to come over to the US to visit me. I asked how much this would cost and she told me $400 for the VISA and Passport and $1300 for a round trip ticket through this travel agency that was in her city. I tried to find out whether the travel agency takes credit cards and she said no. Then she suggested that she had seen a commercial on TV about sending money thru Western Union. So I sent her the money thru Western Union. After she got the money I did not here from here for several days. I kept sending her emails and then she finally responded with 1 line responses not being very friendly anymore and very standoffish. This is when I started looking for scamming information and found this website. When I read the section on "Dating Scams" the "Scam Patterns" were very similar to what I had just experienced. So I sent her an email asking her if she was scamming me and she never responded.

I also, set up another profile on match.com as a different user and started to correspond to her again and guess what, she responded with the identical pictures and introductory email as my initial correspondence. Busted!!! But too late for me!

I informed match.com and they told me to file an internet fraud complaint with the FBI, they were not very helpful.

Letter - This is the first letter....

Hello Harold,
Thank you for your letter and your picture... You look really nice!
My dear, please, tell me about your favorite things: color, flavor, flower, movie, season, book, sport, hobby, music, weather, type of woman etc. I'm interested to know more about your work and everyday life... Please, tell me what do you expect from relations between two people? And if it's no secret, I'd like to know smth about your experience in the serious relationship. My favorite writers are Russian classics such as L.Tolstoy and Dostoevsky. I also like Ernest Hemingway and Oscar Wild. I do love to read Arthur Rembaud, Paul Verlen, W. Shakespeare and Byron. I like to read some modern russian writers as Victor Pelevin. And I'm fond of Carlos Kastanyeda, Stephen King, Mark Twein etc...
My favorite color is red, flower is daffodil, season is spring, time is night and evening, movie is "The Story Of Us"...
My favourite food is fruit and smth sweet (scherbet, chak-chak, kazinaki, do you know what it is?) I like Russian food such as pelmeni and borsch, I do love shashlic... Also I like Mexican and Indian food... I like to cook smth unusual, especially if I cook for smb special... It could be great if this special man is the man whom I'm writing this letter.
My family isn't large, my parents and me. I live with them in two-rooms apartment. My mother is the most beautiful woman for me (and for my dad, of course :-)) She so kind, careful, understanding, loving and wise person! And my dad is very interesting, intelligent man. He is philosopher inside. He read a lot and think about the world a lot... My parents are the best advisers for me, it's strange but they never make mistakes in their advises. I love them most of smb else...
Well, it's hard to tell what I really expect from the serious relations, from the marriage. It depends on the man with whom I build the relations. I want to be loved, respected, trusted... And I want the understanding firstly. I want to feel that this man is the part of me who can understand me as deeply as I can understand myself or I suppose much more deeply... I'm in need of trust. I was scammed so much times so I hardly can trust people. But I want to trust them! And I need to be proved and if the man could prove that I really can trust him I'll believe him for all my life and nothing could break my trust in such man.
My dream is simple enough. I want to meet that one who will love me. I want to marry, create a family and born children. I want to spend with my future husband all my life. Only I need is to be with the man who will love me, trust me, understand me. I want to share with him all my life, all my dreams and feelings.
Well, I better go now. I'm thinking of you and waiting for your letter impatiently.
Bye for now!
Best regards,
Natasha mailto:nataforyou@fromru.com

Letter - This is the letter where she discourages me to come see her..

Darling, I do want to meet you! I live in 700 miles from Moscow to south east and you can go here by train. I don't know how about the plain from Moscow to Ulyanovsk... May be it'll cost about $100... I don't know exactly. Honey, are you sure, you want to come here? I do want to meet you but I'm a little worried that you won't feel comfortable here. I heard that there are many foreigners who came to Russia to see their women and they were stolen or even killed by some bastards. If something happens to you here, I won't forget myself. And you know I have never been abroad and it could be the best adventure for me to see how you live there, what is around you, what you see every day. I do want to know your reality to know and understand you better.
My visa is invalid now, so if you decide to go here, we have to wait while my visa will be done....May and June is great, but may we meet earlier? What do you think?
Honey, I'm really crazy about you! I want to be with you for all my life and to give you all I have... Harold, you are so wonderful, thank you for being with me, for your care and love, for all you are giving me. I better go for now... I do love you, my Sun, I love you from the bottom of my heart...
Your Natasha

Letter - This is the letter where she indicates the requirements for traveling...

Hello my Prince!
Thank you for your wonderful words, oh gosh, if you could know how much I wanna be with you. It's the true happiness to sit by you and to hold your hand. My heart's crying when I think about my inability to do it now. You face near mine, your eyes looking into mine, your lips tenderly touching mine... I'm getting crazy because I know that I wake up tomorrow morning and you won't be there with me. It's slowly killing me every morning when I open my eyes and every evening when I close them, every day when I know that I'll come home and you won't say hi Hon and kiss me. Darling, sometimes I think that the love is only for very strong people who can pass through all challenges and won't give up in the fight for the happiness. And I want to prove you that I'm worth of your love, and our patience is worth of our future. I'll love you for all my life even if you tell me that you don't wanna be with me any more because nobody was able to give my soul this magic you are giving me. I'm walking along the streets and I see your face in the crowd, I close my eyes and I see our date, when you are coming to me, lightning from deep inside by tenderness, care and love. My star, please, take my love just because it's all I have... I want to sit by the computer all days long telling you how i feel because there is so much inside of me for you. But I have to go now, to go back in the reality where there's no you, there's no us together. I'm afraid to go there because it's so painful to have no chance just to touch your face and say these magical three words. I love you.................................
Darling, I asked about the trip in the travel agencies and what a surprise! I met at the one of them my old friend, we haven't met for a very long time and now he's working at the travel agency as a lawyer. And he said that if I want to come to you, I have to make the visa and passport and to make it I have to get the medical certificate. And they can do the visa and passport for me just in a month! Can you imagine! So soon... They have right lines with the Embassy, that's why it's so quick. And I also found out that it's only one agency which can make visa. My friend also told me that I have to buy the round trip tickets and visa at once at their agency. I don't know why I have to do it but in the other case they won't do my visa and passport. Please, tell me what do you think about it.
With all my heart
Your Natasha

PS my address is Russia, Ulyanovsk, Zapadnii bulvar, 73-12 and I don't have the phone at home :-((( but may be we could talk in yahoo messenger? My id is natarus2002 and my friend has the mic, so it's able for us to hear each other voice... I do want to hear you!!

Letter - This is where she asks for the money...

Hello my brightest star!
How are you doing today? I do hope all is great! Darling, when I was laying on the bed this night and trying to fall asleep, I felt so lonely as I've never felt before. I embraced the pillow and cried because I needed you so much! I needed you to stroke my hair, and tell me "oh baby, I love you, I love you so much, I'm here with you, honey, and it'll be so always. Come on, babe, see... I'm here, sitting by you, hugging you and we are not apart, we are together, sweetie, I won't leave you, don't cry... I do love you!..." And I laid so for almost all the night and when I fell asleep at last, I woke up many time because I've seen nightmares and there weren't you near me to calm me down or just to press myself to you when you are sleeping beside, to feel your warm and feel so good because you can give me all the calmness of the world... I love you my only one and I'll love you for eternity... 
Honey, may be it's funny and weird, but it's the paradox of Russia, when people can live on such small salaries when their expenses are larger than their income. And at this time, they don't borrow the money from anybody. I can't explain this straight, because people here themselves don't understand this. :-) Oh, by the way, I told you about the salary in USD, it's about 1500 rubles. The cost at the agency for my documents is 400 USD and about 1300 USD for the round trip tickets (the price for it depends on what airport I'll fly to and what date I want to fly on). Please, tell me the nearest airport from you. They will do for me the travel visa (form B-2) for 6 months, but you know, I can stay with you for all my life, if we get married and fill some forms at the Embassy.
Regarding the situation with my friend who left Russia for the US, she also got the travel visa. I don't know at what agency she has done her documents and I can't ask her now because she's in France now, having their honey month, so she haven't been writing me for a while and I don't know when I can receive her letter because they were going to stay in Paris for a half of the year, because her husband was offered by work there. But I know some people who used the help of this agency and were successful, so I trust them. 
Harold, I'll try to call you tomorrow, please, write me your phone number. May be I could borrow the money for the call from my parents, but I won't have much time to talk :-(( 
Honey, thank you for your suggestion for help, but I know that the system with checks doesn't work here. Don't forget, Russia is backward poor country :-)) I have seen TV advertisement about Western Union... I don't know what it is exactly, but they said that it's the best way to transfer the money all over the world, may be we could use it? 
I'd like to talk to you in messenger one day, but I don't want to bother my friend much, so I can't talk long and often, may be once or twice a week, is it ok? I would be happy to see you and hear your voice! My friend doesn't have the camera, but she does have the mic (hmmm... sometimes it works very bad, but I hope all will be well)
Darling, you are always in my heart and in my mind... I love you madly, deeply, sincerely, truly, dearly....
With all my heart and soul
Natasha


Natalia Petrova aka Natalya Jitinkina (Moscow, Russia) 

I received email from "Natalia Petrova" through Friendfinder.com and responded a few times. When she asked me to send money for her visa to come to the USA, I was curious because she said she didn't understand or speak English at all. I found this blacklist and almost identical letters to other men. In one blacklist letter, Natalya Jitinkina (Yoshkar-Ola, Russia) only a few words had been changed and the street name she then lived on was "Petrova". She sent me a photo that was found on Friendfinder under a completely different name. She suggested that the other woman was a "swindler" and used the photo. I have not sent her any money.

Natasha Yakimova (Kirov, Russia)

I am a 34 year old divorced Australian. I hadn't the time to be "set up" by my married friends, so I listed myself on every "free" dating service I could find. Match.com, Irina and Friendfinder have bought me much bad luck and I would like for them to be investigated. I have had 3 scams set upon me, all of which I have since found on your website. This story is the 2nd of 3. The girls made first contact and "Olga" the first one really had me thinking I had found "the one". Actually, all the Russian girls I have "met" are gorgeous. I must go to Russia and look for myself. I am lucky I didn't have the cash handy at the time!

2nd Letter - after I asked her for a pic and already she hints about a visa

Helllo my love!!!
I am very glad to receive your letter. I today thought all the day about us with you. I think that at us with you all can turn out. You simply are not, as it is difficult to live in this city. And it is difficult to live in this country. At us it is very difficult to find perfect, beautiful love. For me main it in the man is of his douche, that he thinks, its idea. If you are able to love and to respect the girl very beautifully, then I can connect with you my destiny on all my life. I tried to find love here at us in the country of Russia, but I have understood that I to not find that love which to me is necessary. The mutual love is necessary to me. I would like to love very strongly you in the future, and that you strongly loved me too. Because the love this most important that is necessary for the relations. Love this such feeling, which cannot be described to tell, the love needs to be felt by heart. And when I to feel that I love you I you at once I shall tell or I shall write about it. I was convinced that love in Russia is not present when my girlfriends send behind the husband. And when they send in marriage, the time has passed. And their husbands began by him to change, saw much alcoholic drinks, beat the wives. And when I have seen all this I has understood that to me is not necessary the man from Russia. And consequently I want to begin with you the serious relations. I think that you the man from for border are very much formed(very much educated). And you can not offend the woman. I today went on our park. The truth our park now all in snow. Me to like very much summer. I love to have a rest by the sea. You probably think what money is necessary from you to me? Is not present it not so. The beautiful love, honour is necessary to me from you. I have got used to work, and I do not love to sit at home without work. I went in conjugal agency and saw that to us there come the men from for border very much. This one more proof, that our girl aspire to leave from Russia. Because in Russia of love is not present and never will be. I the beautiful girl, and me would not be desirable to find to myself very much of shame the man. I looked very many sites on the Internet, and has seen your structure. And all began from it, and has solved to write to you the letter. From millions men you have liked me more. I think that we could with you in the future meet. You want to me to arrive? I think that it will be better if I shall come to you. At my mum is familiar which to me will help with veneering of the visa. I think that if in the future you will invite me to yourselves I with pleasure I shall come to you. But it is very a shame me for speaking, I can not find money to the visa. Because the visa stands very dearly for me. I at all do not know as me to act? But I dream to arrive to you and that at us with you all it was good. If I shall come to you and we with you to get married. Then I shall be arranged on work. When I shall work, we with you shall have more money and us with you we shall easily. I do not love when one in family the man works. After work you will meet me. It will be very pleasant. When you will come to me we with you we shall go in restaurant and to have supper. After supper we shall go with you home and we shall be engaged love all night. And when I shall rise, you to me will bring in bed breakfast. And if I to rise earlier, I shall bring to you breakfast in bed by first. In days off to me to like to go on a nature, to bathe in the sea. I very much love children. What woman does not love children? Children are pleasure in life. You want to have children? I already have a lot of years. And I very much would like to have children. Favourite mine if you will be agree that I can to you arrive to March month.

Letter 2

Hello JXXXXX!!! I'm so pleased that you can understand my not so good English language, that I has learned in school and in College. I'm 171 centimeters tall, my weight is 54 kg, I have medical education, I'm a child nurse. I work in children's hospital and I look after children. I live in the city Yoshkar-Ola. It is approximately in 850 kilometers from the Moscow city. I want to say you, that I love children very much. I have an experience of dialogue directly with Russian people, but they are not adapted, it is serious also. And they drink alcohol very frequently and it not so is pleasant to me. I think, that such habit is not a gift. I want to inform, that I do not smoke, and I do not drink strong drinks. But sometimes I like to drink in the good company a small glass of grape vine, though it happens very seldom. I want to say, that I am able well to play a piano, I have finished musical school, I've studied for 6 years. I Want to inform, that I live with my mum. I have the father. My grandfather unfortunately has died, 7 years ago. I want to say, that I like various music, but mostly classical. I want to be serious. My relations with you are to find love and to create happy family. I will be pleased, if you want the same. I want to say, that I write to you from an office computer. Unfortunately I have no the computer at home. I hope, that it will not be a problem. I hope you'll answer me soon. 
Yours, 
Natasha.
