Email: n1654@nicebride.com

Details: She wanted me to paid for the translation of her letters, private English lessons and I also paid for gifts, books and tickets. She did not want me to have any information about her like address and phone number but I did get a picture of her passport where her birthday was the 20.04.1980. I found her private personal profile on vk.com and her birthday was stated as 20.04.1986. She also said that she did not have a computer at home or at work but I could see on her profile that she did post messages many times every week late at night. I got afraid and I goggled her name and I found a lot of scam reports on her and one as late as the 24.04.2012. She was working together with Nicebride.com and they have scammed me for over 90.000 Rubles over 6 months. I paid Nicebride.com with Paypal, so I hope that I can get my money back because of the scam. I have contacted the Russian Embassy in Denmark and hope that they will do something to end the agency Nicebride and Elena.

Details: Kate contacted me first through Christian Mingle. She requested my personal email address in her first communication with me. She showed a Henderson, Nevada location. He profile was pulled the next day. I called CM and they said they pulled her off for violating the rules, but wouldn’t give details. I told them what I knew and they said it was probably a scam. I researched dating scams and decided to see how far this would go. The first ‘Red Flag’ was that she represented herself as living in Henderson, NV and got kicked off the site. #2 was that a good look’n 43 year old was instantly in Love with a 64 year old guy. When she asked me for airfare money I told her that I am flat broke because of my divorce and would reimburse her over time for her expenses once she arrived here. I haven’t heard anything since.

Email: kitten.anastasia@yahoo.com, kitten. anastasia@permsk.com

Details: I found a nice looking young Russian woman on RussianCupid.com, she was 31 years of age and sent me many love letters by email for about three months. She reported problems with her yahoo-email and changed to permsk.com. During the last weeks she did not want to have any longer email contact as she wanted direct contact through ICQ. I registered with RussianCupid under André, but I wrote her also my real name, only to tell her that I preferred to be called André. I received about 50 of her photos and she wrote me that she studied Russian Literature and received a teacher’s degree. But due to the fact that teacher in Russia received a very low salary, she wrote me that she was employed at Zara’s in Perm. Her mother lived at the country side about 50 kilometres away from Perm and that she spent most weekends with her. As she had no internet access there, I did not receive any mails from Friday to Sunday. I will only attach some of her photos she sent to me by email. Her last contact on ICQ was to tell me that she could pay 195 Euros and she asked me to send her the rest necessary to pay for her passport, visa and flight to Germany. Her mails were mostly in Russian and I had to translate them, a few were in English an the very first one was even in German. Her last chat with me on ICQ (Russian Chats) was that she had taken a three months holiday and that she needed the rest money for the trip urgently. Everything would be organized by her travel agent. When I told her that I did not have enough money to pay pay for the rest, she got very angry and insulted me. It was clear to me that she only wanted to get the money and that she would never come to Germany at all. I never heard from her again and emails I wrote to her were returned to me.

Agency: Singlesalad.com

Details: I found her on singlesalad.com but if you search for her name she has profiles on multiple sites. She is using pictures that belong to the playmate Shera Bechard. She started with asking for money for help with communication costs, she was hoping for a laptop but ok with a smaller amount. Over the course of two months I spoke with her on the phone, on the webcam and we exchanged letters almost daily. On the webcam the image was somewhat blurry. I wondered if she looked a little different from the photos but wasn’t overly concerned until I started to feel she was preparing me for a larger request. I had sent her 200, I spent some more time trying to research her pictures/profile and discovered that they belonged to Shera Bechard. She represented herself as currently working as a waitress and I think this and various other things she told me may in fact be true. Her English is fairly good and I think her reactions to my questions and discussions about her life were to natural to be a complete fabrication. I am assuming that she is being manipulated by other people who are involved.

I do love you and I will not survive if I loose chance to be together. Forgive my unexperience, I had to find out everything before acting but it is too late now.. I had to come in Moscow and find out before signing contract.. I investment so much money in this process and I will loose them. I put close to 700 US dollars in visa process. This is so much money for me and I decided to spend them because I love you and you are much more important for me then any money. I paid 360 US dollars and 300 US I had to pay for trip to Moscow and living there.. It is Moscow and life is very expensive here. I am very upset if it was in no purpose…. My father made impossible for us. He wanted to buy new refrigerator, we have old one without freezing room but he decided that it can wait… He was glad that he could help us, he told that will make everything to help us being together because I love you.. I wish I could contact to parents to ask help. I would never ask you because I know money is tight for you now and I spend everything in my own . I hope you appreciate that and don’t think I want to put everything on your shoulders… Embassy require round trip ticket but as soon as we are together we will sell back ticket and return half money. I am very alone and lonely here and I don’t have anyone but you….. It is much more harder for me now because I don’t have anything to do. I am taking medical exam and getting lessons in Agency. I wish I could know about tickets before. I told that main Agency is in Moscow and I could know about that just here. Do you think I am fool? Am I fool because I want to be with you? I do love you and I am very sad now.. I can’t wait with tickets. Next week I will finish medical exam and will have date of Interview in Embassy. I will refuse visa without tickets and it makes me cry.. Please, please, please, don’t refuse me! Please, try to borrow, try to loan, please, try to make something! If I could have chance to contact to family I could try to make something, even if I had to loan house. I love you and I wanted to make all better… If you were here in my place you would understand everything.. I am ready to scream about helpless, I am lonely here, very lonely and you are the only who I can talk. Please, please, please don’t refuse me. I love you and I will not survive to be alone.. If I get refused it will much more harder for me to get visa next time. This Agency will not work with me. When I come to the Agency they asked me if I was in prison and if I was refused in visa. I have not had both and now I have great chance to get visa. being refused I will loose chance to get visa. It is possible in theory but almost impossible in practice. I will have to pay again for Agency service and I don’t know if it will successes.. I better go, there are many people here and I don’t want someone see at me in this condition.”

Email: ekirovinca@yahoo.com

Details: Your story (as detailed as possible): Elena contacted me and said she saw my profile on a dating site. She apologized for writing me without permission, but she is looking for love and if am looking for the same thing then maybe I would like to get to know her better. She claimed she was either a dental surgeon or an assistant to one. Every time I tried to clarify exact what she does, she would ignore my question. She told me of her childhood and how she has a brother that she doesn’t talk to that much. She spoke of her best friend, Marina. We sent emails daily for over 3 months. I told her early on that if the relationship progressed that I would never send her any money so, don’t ask for any. She assured me that if it came to the point where she would want to meet me, she would be able to pay for everything herself. I didn’t take her but two weeks to start professing her love for me but when I did not respond in kind she kinda back off of the love talk and just spoke of how close she felt we were becoming. Eventually she asked me if I would like to meet and I said yes. I gave her my name, address and phone number. She said she will pay for everything and let me know once she is on her way. She never once asked me for any money. Then I ran across this website of russian-scam.org and read all of the stories here. That same evening that I found this website, Elena wrote me and used one of the storylines that I had read on the website. She claimed that she was short cash for the plane ticket and after hours of begging, the ticket agent let her make a partial payment with the balance due in 12 hours. She spoke of her disappointment in herself and her reluctance to ask me for help, but she finally did. She said I started to call you, but i did not want you to be angry with me so I wrote this email instead…(lol, wow really?). She asked for an amount in the mid $700 range for the balance of the plane ticket. I did not send her anything. If I had not read the same scam routine on russian-scam.org, I might have sent the money. Instead, I wrote her a letter telling her that she hasn’t tried hard enough and if she really wants to come see me she wont make excuses, she will get the money. I suspect after that letter, I won’t be hearing from her anymore. Thank you russian-scam.org and all those who shared their experiences.

On my fake account, I told “her” that I was going to report “her” as a scam. Even then I received an additional email (lol). According to the IP information for 188.187.133.117 she is form Leninsky prospekt, 12, Yoshkar-Ola, Russia, 424000 and phone number +7 (8362) 30-40-70

Email: kolmarya@yahoo.com

Details: I’m not worried about getting my money back, I just thought I’d pass on what details I had, and you can pass it on to whoever you think needs to or cares to know about it. So I had met only briefly met a girl on a dating website, in fact she emailed me first, and after about 2 months she asked me for money for cost of her visa and tickets to Australia. So not being completely stupid, and slightly hesitant, I got her to send me a picture of her with something written on it like “I love you”, so I know it was definitely her pictures that she had been sending me. I also looked on all the Russian black list dating scam websites, and did not find anything that matched any details she had given me. So I sent her 1300 dollars that she needed. I had also email the travel agent she was using to find out more details. so onwards through correspondence she had told me that she had travelled to Moscow
where she had to pick up her visa and next day board the plane. But then she said she was told that she would have to show 2500 dollars to prove what money she was to live on in Australia. I told her there was no way I could come up with that money. She then a day later said she had spoken to customs and they would let her through with only showing 1000 dollars so that sounded a bit suspicious. So I spoke to the Australian embassy in Russia and was told there was no record of her applying for a visa. So wanting to get some more info out of her I had her send a copy of her Passport. Thinking a  scammer wouldn’t be silly enough to do that, but she did, whether or not its fake, you guys might still be able to track it. Then when I told her that I couldn’t send that 1000 dollars I haven’t heard from her since. So I’ll pass on what details I have to you and you can do with them what you sill.

Details: I contacted this girl through A Foreign Affair, however I found her on over 20 sites after the SCAM All but one website removed her, and that site is www.originclub.com Why they keep her on there makes me wonder the legitimacy of their intentions. I had communicated with her mostly by phone and SMS. I invited her to Kiev from Nikolaev. She said she would take a taxi which was $200 each way. I contacted the a few taxi companies and they said, yes, the price was correct. When she arrived at my hotel I paid her so she could pay the driver. She handed him money, how much I did not see. The security guard told me it was a Kiev taxi, then he asked the driver where he picked her up, and he replied the bus station. Oh well, I could have man handled her for the money, but who knows what kind of charge she would have trumped on me if I had done so. Had he asked 30 seconds earlier, would have avoided the whole mess. Had I not locked the double dead bolt which needed a key to open, I think she would have sneaked out during the night. I should have thrown her out, but I have a conscience. BEWARE she is ruthless! She came with no luggage. I can only assume she was going to have me buy her clothes for the 4 days…

Krinicina, Marina – Kaluga, Russian Federation

Agency: Single Me

Details: She wrote me letter wanting to get to know me, we wrote back and forth for 5 weeks before she said she would like to meet me and that she was scheduled for her vacation and would not have another opportunity. She told me she would cover everything from her savings. After another 2 weeks she sent me a copy of her visa. And then she gave me dates for her flight. On the night she was supposed to fly out she e-mailed and asked for $250 because she had no money and they would not let her on the plane as a tourist to USA with no money. I wired the money to her and got an email the next day that she had gotten mugged and was in the hospital with a broken rib and damaged spleen but had some access to a computer. She said she had to have surgery and would be in the hospital for 2 weeks. AFter 10 days I received an email from her friend in Russia telling me that she was very sick and needed surgery but did not have money for it and needed $220 for surgery. I work with a Russian lady who told me that there are no charges for any hospital visits in Russia. I had her email her friend back in Russian to tell her she had a trip planned to Moscow and would bring her the money to help me out. There has been no contact since that time.

Kryukova, Darya aka Malina – Kirovsk, Leningrad region, Russia

Details: Her profile name was “findreason3”; the name she went by was “malina”, and later she gave me her supposed real name “Darya Kryukova”. There was no direct request for money, but this person was setting the scene to eventually ask the inevitable question. I also received quite a few pics, so I have attached those as well. (I even received one that was supposedly of her parents!) Websites like www.russian-scam.org are doing a great service by posting names and pics of these scammers.

Email: veronichkaaa@rambler.ru
Agency: http://www.lavalife.com

Details: Use the same email and name. One is divorced and one is not. Same pre-written letters. Fell in love and request money.

Details from second scam: I’m a divorced man from Canada.  I decided to see what the internet dating scene is all about, so I decided to meet some people on Lavalife.    I got an email from Veronika from Lavalife (It was sent collect – go figure…).  I decided to read it, I replied with my email address.   Shortly after I got an email from her (the first one listed here).  I went to about 5 emails before realizing something was fishy.   I started to realize that something was wrong when she would only answer questions at the bottom of my emails and not in the middle or top.   She made it so that she did not have a phone number to call, address to write too.  I asked her for pictures of her with her friends or family… she had none… that was the red flag.    At email 6 I ran a search on her name, email address and content of pretty much all of her emails….  Every one came up with a match with slight differences at the bottoms of her emails (where she answers your questions).    I found tons of information on her, like pictures she hasn’t even sent me yet, as well as other aliases  (same pictures, different names).   The following is what I found for other aliases:  Ekaterina Smirnova, Tatiana Veserina, Irina Chivanova.  All aliases have the same email bodies as Veronika with slight variations.    Then I found pictures of different girls with the same email content!   This sounds like either a network of scam artists or one VERY horrible guy who is sucking people into this web.    Based on stories and other reports of this person, she has successfully scammed thousands of dollars from people…  I was able to catch it before I got scammed because of people writing these reports.     I am returning the favor…  PLEASE, WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT SEND MONEY TO ANYBODY!  YOU EITHER VISIT HER FIRST OR BUY HER TICKETS YOURSELF!   Also there are flower delivering/anti-scam agencies that will send flowers to her personally and make sure that the address / profile match; hence make sure she isn’t some burley guy with a beer gut!

Kulpena , Svetlana – Abakan, Russia

Address: Abakan, Russia.
E-mail address: juicy@mailbang.com

Details: This girl by the name of Svetlana Kulpena played a scam on me and after sending her 1500 USD she disappear and emails are not going through and she never showed up in the USA like she said.

She contacted me through Yahoo personals and we became friends. Her story was she’s all alone as her parents have died in an automobile accident a year ago. She said that she liked me on the first sight when she saw me on yahoo and wanted to be my friend and maybe future lovers or couple. She said that she work for a factory which manufacture navigational system in Abakan Russia. She wanted to come and visit the USA on her vacation as a tourist. She said doesn’t make much money as her salary was only 150 USD a month and she has saved but not enough money to go on vacation. After months of communications she finally got a US Visa and sent a copy to me (attached to this email) I helped her by sending her 500 USD to purchase her return ticket and she sent me the flight schedule and asked me to pick her up upon arrival. A day before her departure on Dec 25 2005, she email and said she was at the airport to check in so that she won’t miss the flight but when she got there the officials will not let her check-in because she didn’t have any money on her and they told her that American authorities will not let her enter the USA if she is traveling without any money because she has a tourist visa and tourists are suppose to carry at least 1000 USD for them to enter USA. She pleaded with me and asks me to send her the money to declare to them and board the next flight so that all her efforts will not be in vain and her dreams of coming to America will be fulfilled and she will hand over my money to me once I pick her up on arrival. It was a desperate moment for her as she narrated so I did that for her and waited but she was neither on the next flight nor the following flight. I wrote to her email address juicy@mailbang.com but it bounced back to me. The following is her Full name and address and the last email letter that she wrote to me and attached are some of the photos and the visa copy that she sent to me overtime.

Kunetc, Anna – Lugansk, Ukraine 

Details: I wrote to her and she wrote me back with very sweet, romantic letters. After 2 letters I was contacted by an agency named Glory-club, I was told she had no more money for correspondence, letter translations and such. She needed 99.00 per month for unlimited 
translations. I sent her money for this. I also sent her a good deal of money to buy a computer so we could email directly since months had passed 
and I had already sent her money for English lessons. It was already too late when I got suspicious, but I decided to write her at her 
matchdoctor.com dating website from another persons profile. What do you know, she loved me she said but wrote back right away to this other guy! Then, just like me, she asked for money for correspondence after 3 letters. In fact, the first 2 letters I got from her were the same exact letters that this other guy’s profile received. If you have any more questions, please write. I’ve been scammed, but I hope this gets posted quickly with her picture so noone else does

Details: she was writing to me wanting me to send her money through the Western Union she was using the e-mail address snechinca@yahoo.com, I did not send any money to her, but became suspicious when she kept requesting money after I had initially said that I would not. Then enquiring into the possibility that this was a scam artist noticed her photo on your site under the name Semyonova and it all made sense. I hope this person gets caught as it is a awful thing that she is doing to people that are wanting to believe in the ability to trust another good person, obviously it is not always so.
