Chaldishkin, Nikolay – Perm City, Russia 

Postal Address: Tramvaynaja Street, 14 do Vostrebovanija
Phone Number: Unknown (said parents did not have a phone; yet he called me twice!)

Details: I was contacted by Nikolay through gay.com. He was extremely cautious about answering most of my questions. Pretended to go to Moscow to Odessia Agency to be trained for his visa and passport. He offered to pay for his trip and schooling if I would pay for his plane fare. I offered sky miles for his airline ticket; however, he said that the agency would lose their reputation and license so I sent money not only for airline ticket but also for visa. Then suddenly he said there was a tax on the money I had sent via Western Union. I refused to send anymore money.

Then the communication from him stopped. Watch Nikolay: He’s very smooth and very clever. Do not be influenced by his “falling in love” with you, his tears, his wanting to come to America, his offering to work when he arrives because he “is not lazy and wants to work.” Nikolay is indeed a scammer!

Cherezova Oksana – Odessa, Ukraine

Address: 14 Krasnova Street, Apartment 198, Odessa, she also uses 90 Filatova Street, Apartment 104, Odessa – which i believe is her sister’s apartment 
Email: oksanaknowsbetter@mail.ru
Website: RussianBrides.Com

Details: Yes she did ask for money, constantly, First to pay necessary bills as her air conditioning units was not work, then for a dog for her daughters, then to assist her each month so she could work less hours and spend more time with her daughters, then for presents for her daughters, and finally for a visa application.

She also attempted to get money from me to “get rid of her ex”, which meant pay him to go away and pay him his half of the apartment. I did not pay the $15,000 she was asking but someone else did pay some money to her. I am down about $15,000 and a man i know is down over $20,000 plus a trip overseas for her, her children and a friend of hers. At the end she offered her friend to him but while there she made sure she got plenty of money and was wined and dined as much as she could.

She says she is a practicing vet but we (yes there are more than two of us who have been scammed who are in contact) believe she either works for RussianBrides.Com and earns from her scams and chatting or in another related industry. Her finger nails indicate she is not wearing too many surgical gloves and she only seems to work at night.

We never had a relationship but I did meet her. She is a consummate con artist and was all over me when we met (even in front of her daughters). She never had any intention of having a relationship with me nor any western man as she is in a relationship already. She is still on the site, from about 11pm Ukraine time to 4am / 5am Ukraine time. I contacted Russian Brides but they simply did nothing apart from try to talk me around to using their site which i will never do, and would recommend no one else does.

Her bank account details are as below if you want to inform her bank. I am sure Chase Bank would like to close the account of a mail fraudster. The deposits to that account would be interesting

Corut, Alexandru – Galiti, Romania

Address: Str. Closca 3, Bl. PS11A, AP 66, Galati, Romania 800342 
Phone: 011+40752332841

Details: Alexandru Corut had contacted me on the Internet Dating Site, “Ukraine Date”, dot com. Her Profile said her age was 28, After a few letters we started to talk more serious about our relationship at that she did not want to have a “pen pal,” and she was serious about leaving her life in Galiti, Romania, and that there was nothing there for her. I had asked her for her phone number, she gave it, and I would call her everyday, she claimed she worked at a call centre, helping people with there phone cards and wireless service, later I found out she was an Erotic Sex Chat model, and I think this is where she got the training to talk men out of there cash. I am 52, she said she was looking for an older more mature man, and not a boy, and someone she could build a life with, she said all the right things and made many promises, but the emails started to get fewer and fewer, she said her computer went bad, I sent her money for a new one, but the emails still remained sparse, and was also hit or miss on the phone. One sign that needs notetation, is the fact that she never had contact on the weekends, from email or phone, and always had an excuse, One Big Red Flag!!!! 

After a month or so, we started to plan on her coming to the U.S. for a visit, but she only had 600 dollars in her account and needed help with the Visa, Passport and air ticket, She also had said she was having to work much more to train new people at her call centre, she had told me that she needed money for train and motel expenses also in getting her documents in order, by having to travel to Bucharest every week and stay the motel weekends because she did not want to have come back for each document, but this is what she did every week, I had sent emails and asked her several times for her confirmation number on her air ticket but never would give it to me, just the flight number, she stated she could not find the 15 digit number on her ticket! on the day she was to fly, she broke contact with me, turned phone off, and last email, stating she was turned down for the Visa and she was embarrassed and would call me, the next day but never did or email me to this date August 4 2013, ever again. On June 27 she shows up, sending me a note of interest as a 27 year old from the same website, Ukraine Date, I had blocked her, and reported her to the site and they have since removed her, of course I am out the $3500 U.S. for her lies and extraordinary deception. I had spoken with her on live video chat, on Yahoo, Messenger to verify her face and email identity, and researched all of the scam sites with her name and never found a thing, until I had uploaded her photos into Google Images and found her to be very active in the Adult Erotic Web Chat service, but too late I am afraid. Obviously she had lied about every thing she did and said.
