This is the alphabetical listing of agencies and names of known Russian scammers involved in dating fraud. The name of the person where the money is sent is the key issue in a scam, and different photos may be used. Also, the same set of photos may be used under different names. Most known scams appear to be run by the same few groups using different names and photos. Photos used in a scam not necessarily belong to the scammers, and may be simply downloaded from the Internet.

Demidov, Denis - Cheboksary, Russia

Phone: no phone
Address: Apt 138Kadykova Street, 36

Details: A  23 year-old male living with parents, recently graduated from "Pedagogical Institute". After corresponding for a month, with not particularly good English and little questions answered or information given, asks for help with "visa" money to emigrate or visit you. Letters tend to be almost surrealistically romantic and make little rational sense. Asks for 350 dollars for visa costs, etc. via Western Union. Also sent one photo of city (Cheboksary) and four photos of "his pet fish".  Yes! This happens to innocent, if gullible guys looking for guys too! By the same perpetrators (it seems)!

Demidova Natasha/Natalya - Tomsk, Russia

Phone: no phone
Address:  Russia, Tomsk, 634027, Koltcevoi proezd, 39 - 34

Email: natasha_tomsk@rbcmail.ru

Details: Small talk for a few emails but avoided
answering many questions.  She says she taught a psychology class at the Tomsk Polytchnical University.  After 2 weeks, she told me she had a month long vacation in just 3 weeks and wanted to see me, asking for visa/airfare. I looked into a flight and reserved one, but she insisted it had to be done through an agency that was affiliated with her school.  We went back and forth over and I became more suspicious.  She even called and left a message, saying "we need to talk".  I demanded she send me a copy of her passport and I immediately thought she didn't look like the original photos I had of her.  Also, the seal on the passport is not embossed. There were 3 names and addresses she asked me to send money to.

Deruybina, Anna - Kolgaym City, Russia

Agency: true.com

Details: I was contacted like many oterhs and we had a 3 month email exchange, during which shew asked for nothing (Which I don't understand). About halfway through, I told her I found her pictures on a Scammer Web Site ans she told mw that her pictures wer solen and used for no good. I forgave her and we maintained the email exchange. Then a bout two weeks a go I got an email from greenfeelings@bk.ru. It was word for word, the same text as the first. I sent "Anna" the copy of the new email and told her if I got another I would send that too. I did, and haven't heard from her since. Seems to me, that it is like a busininess. Someone should try to stop it. 
I will attach the text of the 2 letters and all the photos, including #2 woman. The letter is the same, Only the name changed from Anna to Marina.
