Tatyana Sreberco
(Anishino, Russia)
Hi, my name is Patrick. I'm 39 from Florida. Like most of the others so far, this one contacted me on my Yahoo Personals, but this one had a profile claiming to be from Orlando, Fl. Tatyana/Tanya revealed she was from Russia in her first email. The E-mail address she gave me is tatyana@mailterem.com and the snail mail address was Pahtaeva Tatyana Lesnaya st. 4 Anishino, Tulskaya oblast 301335
Right from the get go, I got the sob story on her tough life in Russia was for her.
You know the my mother died in 2002, My father left us when I was a baby, I have no family here, I can’t find a man because they are all drunks, My ex-boyfriend was abusive and beat me and I’m so lonely and happy I met you B.S.
I’m here to tell ya fellas this one is very, very good. She had pretty good English and responded
somewhat to my questions. After 2 ½ months/ 21 letters later, I get the “I’m ready to come see you But cant get all the money together” letter.
It was a carbon copy, insert your name here letter the same as the ones found on this site.
http://www.womenrussia.com/blackpage321.htm#valerevna and http://www.womenrussia.com/blackpage323.htm
She decided to come visit me on her vacation between jobs. Her last letters she asked me for $327 and had the flight plans in detail right to my airport.
I never had any intentions of giving her money because I had my suspicions it was a scam and this site confirmed it today when I saw the links above. Like the others I just played along for entertainment until she asked for money and I knew she would. She did and didn’t disappoint me. Emails and pictures are below. She sent me the same pictures that she sent the other 2 fellas so I’ll post different ones. Watch this one guys, she is very good at her scam. In the below pic you will see she has gotten better at her Visa fake.
I can't believe there are actually people sending money to these women. I have sent an e-mail to the American/Russian Embassy with the Visa picture she sent me and a couple of other scam sites out there. If it’s allowed here is a link to another site
http://agencyscams.com/Photos11.htm guess who’s there? Same name and picture she sent me and probably you.
Guys we are all looking for something that seems to good to be true and it hurts like hell to feel taken advantage of or to be made fool of. Lets strike back and get these women banned, fined, arrested or whatever and make room for the ones who are legitimate.
Good luck and keep your hard earned money in your pocket where it belongs.

Letter #1/Hi, my new friend November 7, 2004
Hi Patrick!
You have written a letter to me, it’s very pleasant. Thank you that you found a minute to answer me. Frankly speaking I couldn’t hope for
it. I’m sorry that I was not able to write an answer to you. I hope
you’ll forgive me and won’t be angry with me. I’m very sorry. Pardone
me. I think you will write me and I’ll answer you at once!!! I don’t know what to say in my first letter, because I never got
acquainted through internet before. It’s something new and unusual for
me. But I’ll try write good letters to you. I suppose you’ll be able to
understand my words and what I will say to you. I think it will be right if I begin to tell you about my self first, because it was me who
began to write. I’m not sure that you will like my letters, that they
will be interesting to you, but if it won’t be so you will write me
about it. OK? Probably you’ll be surprised that I don’t live in your
country. But I hope it don’t shock you. I’m the same like many other
ladies in other countries in the world. I’m a usual woman who has hands, legs, a head a heart that is the most important. I think that my
heart is very sensitive. I hope you’ll understand it from my letters.
I’ll be immensely happy if the distance between us doesn’t afraid you,
and you’ll answer me. Please don’t be too strict to my mistakes in the
words, english is not my native language. But I suppose I know it well. Well, my name is Tatyana, as you know. In my childhood I was called
Tanya. My friends call me so now. Some times they call me Tanusha. Endearing form of my name is Tanechka. You may call me as you like. I
won’t be disappointed. I’m 30 years old. My birthday is on the 10th of
September. I was born in 1974. My height is 168 cm (5 feet 6 inches).
My weight is 52 kg (115 pounds). I live in a small village Anishino.
Anishino is stuated not far from Tula. Tula is a big and famous city of
Russia. In 1941-1945 Russia solders lead cruel terrible fights with German aggressors. I think you know about the War. Tula is a very
beutive city. I suppose you would like the city if you saw it. I was dreaming to become an actress in my childhood. Probably it’s
the dream of many girls. But my dream didn’t become true. It’s severe
reality of life. I graduated from a medical university. My education
consists of 3 level: school, college, university. I had been studying
during 18 years. All 18 years I studied the English language also. I
graduated from the university at the age of 25. By the way I was awarded with a medal for excellent results during my studying. Don’t
think that I boast (smile). Than I worked as an assistant of a surgeon
in a small clinic for 4 years. It was very intresting and at the same
time responsable. I was happy to give people health, to help them. Many
things depended on me during operations. I think in future I’ll be able
to become a surgeon myself. Do you think that it’s a good dream? Unfortunaly I had to stop working in a hospital, because my salary was
tiny. Now I’m working as a manager in a marriage registration bureau. I
like my job. I’m glad to see happy smiling just married cuopes. I my
register marriage officially. I like to say to people: “Now you are a
husband and a wife”. I do it not only for people from my village, but
also for couples from other villages which are situated not far from
ours. Many people know me and say hello meeting me. But not long ago I
was invited to work to a private clinic. I was offered good money. Now
I’m in 2 minds what to choose, what is the best. Probably that I will
work in the clinic like a surgeon. At present I have a small house with small garden near it. I live
alone that’s why I’m not able to work in the garden constantly. But
never the less my garden is very beautiful and pleasant. I like to grow
flowers because they are the most beautiful that were created by nature. I live alone, have neither children nor a boyfriend. Sometimes
I feel very lonely in my house. May be that’s why I decided to get
acquainted with you. I’m already 30, and take life philosophically. I
have a house, a job, friends but I can’t say that I’m happy. I have no
many who I can my best half. I wrote you first, it means I can share my
thoughts and feelings with you. I hope you won’t laugh. And we’ll write a lot of letters to each
other. I’m very glad and grateful that you answered my letter, because
I decided to try getting acquainted through internet only once. And it
was a miracle for me when you wrote me a letter. If it was not so I
will never try to make friends through e-mail once again. I never get
acquainted before in such a way. I can’t understand fully how it works,
because I don’t have a computer. I’m just a beginer in the work of
internet. But I hope I’ll be able to write you constantly. I hope you
are interested in our dialogue as I'm.
I’d like to ask you Patrick some questions. If you don’t want to answer them, you may not to do it, I won’t be offended. What do you do?
What’s your profession? Do you like it? Who are the nambers of your
family? I ask to tell it more in detail. With whom do you live? Patrick you may tell me about you all what you want. I’ll be glad to
know all about your life. It’s just women’s curiosity. Hope it won’t
offend you. I send you my photo. I think we should not conseal any thing. I hope that photo’s exchange will be
constant. I realise that tastes differ but I hope my image will be pleasant for you. But I
should tell, that I can not receive the big files. I shall have trouble. Because I use a computer on work. I hope your letters will not
be more than 0,5 mbyte. If not I will understand and won’t be angry.
I hope you will write me soon. I thank you beforehand. I am sorry once again that I did not answer your letter for a long time. Forgive
me, but I had no opportunity to take advantage of a computer. I have no
computer of a house and consequently I shall use a computer on work.
But I shall try to write to you every day if you want to talk to me in
future. I hope for it very much. With best regards. With best regards.
Tatyana.
P.S. Hope in your answer you write your name. I shall wait.
Letter #2
Hi Patrick!
How are you today? I hope all is well. I'm also happy today because I've got a letter from you. I've written me! I'm immensely happy. Now
I'm at work and I'm writing a letter to you. I've alredy told you, that
I don't have a computer at home. Jast at work. But sometimes. I can use
it to write a letter to you. I'll try to write constantly. If the computer is free I'll write letters to you durring my free time. I
think my letters will be sent to you at 6.00 pm, because at this time
our bereau sends letters to Moscow. My letter will be sent together with other letters. I am grateful to you for picture. I like it and I am glad, that you
send it to me. You pic the first, that I see when I receive your letter. Patrick, I didn't write you about my family. But I think that you
should know about it and now I'm going to do it. I was born and was growing in Anishino. Now I live here. I don't remember my father,
because he didn't live with us. I was grown up only by my mother. We
were the best friends on the Earth, we were very close to each other.
But my mom had cancer of belly and she died in 2002. The year was horrable for me. I though I was the only person on the whole planet. It
was terrible and unbelievable. I couldn't realise it for a long time. I
was empty. It's difficult to imafine thoughts in my head and my feelings. Even now I remember my mom very often. You know I had very
happy childhood. My mom and I walked in the park together. We play together different games. We talked a lot. Just than, some years latter
I began to understand that she felt qulity because I didn't have father
with me. But I heard from other people that it was not my mother's fault. My father (I can't call him "dad") never loved my mom. Me left
her a lone when he learnt that my mom was pregnant. It was very difficult for her to grow me, to feec me, to buy me dresses, that's why
I haver neither brother nor sister. We lived just by her tiny salary.
But we never complained of our life - we solved all the problems together. But if we were happy we tried to tell about our good luck to
our neighbours. My mom always said to me that I must marry a man whom I
will love. She adviced me to besure in a man before going to marry him.
I think the same. I'll remember a moment for a long time. I will never
forget my mother's eyes when my leg was dislocated and I couldn"t go.
At that time we were faraway from our house to gathers berries. Just my
mom and I. But she took me on her hands and carried my to our village.
Can you imagine it? I was already 12 years old when my mom was carrying
me duringan hour. I understood that it was difficult to her, but she
didn't want to leave me alone in the forest to go to the village to ask
somebody for a help. She was afraid that something terrible would happen to me in the forest. I hope you understand, Patrick, that the
memory about my mom is dear for me. After my mom's death I feel very lonly, because I have neither
sisters nor brothers. To be more exact I have no relatives at all. But
I have friens. They Elena anc Marina. They are wonderful girls. We can
call us sisters, because we are friends more than 15 years and we help
each other. I'm absolotely sure that if I ask Elena or Marina to help
me they will never refuse. Our relations are very strong, the time has
checked them. A year ago Elena married and her husband took her to his
native town. We write letters to each other very often, but it's a pity
that we can't see much of each other. But Elena has come to us in spring. I taljed much (the whole week) but it was too little, we
couldn't tell each other all the events. Now Marina and I are waiting
for Elena's next arrival. And you, Patrick, do you hawer such friends? Also for an entertainment I work in my small garden. I raise
vegetables and flowers. But as a hobby it certainly flowers. Roses, orchids, tulips, asters and many others. But the main place in a garden
have my favorite flowers of a rose and an orchid. Hope you can sometime
see it. It's a pity, I can write more. I hope you'll answer my letter. I
also hope that you are interested in our communication. I will tell you
more about my life in my following letters. I think you are tolerant
(smile).
Yours faithfully Tatyana.
Letter # 3/This is me, your friend! November 14, 2004
Hi Patrick!
How are you? What is the weather like today in your country? I hope all is well. Today it was small snow. But it didn’t last long. Now the
air is fresh outside and I’m glad that I can sit near the window and
write a letter to you. Today I have had a difficult day, but now i’m
free and I can spend my time writing you. Today it is cloudy outdoors that’s why I am in a lyrical mood. By
the way I’m sorry for my previous letter. It was sad. I didn’t want to
make you disappointed. I hope you didn’t get offended to my story about
the mother. Well, I’m in a good mood and I want to tell you about my
hobbies. I like listening to different music. It depends on my mood and
feelings. I like Russian composers such as Dunaevski and hajkovsky. But I also like listening to Mozart and Bach. I think they are great
composers and no body will surpass them. I like Joe Satriane as well. I
suppose he is a magnificent guitar player. I hope you agree with me. I
like the group “Dire Straits” very much. I like “Pink Floyd”. They are
not similar to any others. There are a great number of popular musicians in America. But I remember Russians as well. May be you heard
about the Russian group “Spleen” or “Chaif”. But I think the most
famous Russian group in the USA is “Gorky Park”. Probably you’ve heard
about it. They had a great success at the beginning of 90s. By the way
I like going to the cinema very much. I like Russian directors such as
Tarkovsky, Konchalovsky and Mihalkov. Now days a lot of American films
are on the screen in Russia. American cinema is widely spread in Russia. I like such old American films as Gladiator, Brave Heart. Mel
Gibson is a good actor. New films are also interesting to me. I have
seen “The chronicles of Riddick” and “Another vs Predator” recently. I
liked it. I have some favourite shows. For example - “Wildlife” from
BBC. They show the most beautiful views of nature and animals. I like
to watch programs about nature and animals very mach. I also prefer to
watch NBA games. They are fantastic shows. But unfortunately NBA games
are not very often shown on Russian TV. I know that American football
is very popular in your country. It’s an exciting show as well. Criminal programs have the biggest rating on TV, because here TV
reporters tell about crimes occurring during a day or a week, they tell
about leaders and authorities of criminal business in Russia, juvenile
murderers and racists, addicts, maniacs, etc. You know the level of crimes is extremely high in Russia. The majority of our country like to
watch these programs. But I hate to do it. I prefer to watch some musical and entertaining shows, and as a rule they are our (Russian)
programs and of course they are not known to you. Now you think that I
spend my time in front of the TV screen with my mouth full of popcorn
and it takes me the whole day (smile). But it’s not true. Actually I
watch TV very seldom, once in a blue moon. I have no time and forces to
do it. My health is the most important thing for me. I don’t boast. My
health is really good, and I always try to be in a good form. I jag every morning, try to spend as much times as possible in the open air.
I have no car and I take a bus or whatever (I mean transport) very seldom. I take cold - not shower. I have been living in the conditions
of rather cold winters and damp autumn since my childhood. Such king of
climate helps to toughen my health. I don’t smoke and don’t take
alcoholic drinks. I prefer a healthy way of life and I’m proud of it. Sewing and knitting are my hobbies if it’s possible to say so. I
also like to spend my free time gardening and gathering muchrooms and
berries. I love to ski and to skate in winter. I can speak about my hobbies for a long time. But I also want to say that I don’t like some
things. I don’t like artful and envious people. I hate when somebody
lies and deceives. I don’t love cruelty and roughness. I’m not interested in people, who prefer to spend their time drinking alcohol a
lot. I also don’t like bad untasty meal and cloudy days (smile). Patrick I shall be glad, if you tell about you many various things for
me. I want to know about you more and more. Because you my FRIEND. You
agree? Friends always should know well each other. Sorry, but I could not read your last letters which has received on
Friday. First I was delighted, but then have become sad. All your
letters were as hieroglyphs. I have called the woman who works on a computer. She is an expert. She has told, that at reception of the
letters the computer has taken the wrong coding. She spoke something
about KOI8, DOS and WIN. I have understood nothing. To me have told to
ask you about repetition of the letters. I hope you will send it once
again. I think my letter you can read. To me it was guaranteed by the
woman. By the way, she never can read my correspondence. Because she
has to learned me create the password on my e-mail. Thanks for photo to me is pleasant for receiving. I think, that
pictures speak much about the person. Thanks! I send you a picture. I can not tell precisely. In my opinion it is
December 2002. I was in Moscow. This a Red Square. I hope you know that
it. By the way, behind of me you can see the Kremlin. I would be glad
to hiking with you on Moscow. I hope may be sometime.
Your Tatyana
Letter #5/The wonderful day November 25, 2004
Hi my Patrick!
The day is wonderful today and I’m in high spirits and how are you? I hope all is well. Yesterday I was in a bad mood. It was raining all day long. I like
when it’s raining but yesterday it was pouring and it didn’t make me
happy. I’ve already told you that I live in my own house. It’s very
beautiful and comfortable, but it’s too old. The roof is very old too
and that’s why there are some holes in it. I’m disappointed that during
the rain. The water goes through the hotels in the roof and makes the
house full of water. I asked a specialist’s help, and he tried to repair some parts of the roof for many times but it didn’t help,
because it’s necessary to repair the whole roof, I have to change the
roof. And yesterday I come to the conclusion that I have to do it as
soon as possible. More than it at this moment it’s necessary. Autumn
will come very soon. Because soon winter. And it often rains in autumn
in Russia, that’s why my house needs to be, repaired in the nearest
time. But now it’s just my dreams and hopes. My friend Marina promised
me to help. She always help me. I’m very glad to have such a friend.
She is very close to me and we often spend time together. By the way I
told her about you ans she is happy that we write letters to each other. Marina says that I need a man who will help me and who will
really love me. You know I really feel lonely very often but I believe
in god luck. I believe in God, he always helps. I don’t remember if I told you or not about my cat. Its name is
Pushok. It is very handsome. Actually Pushok it is possible to translate to English - Fluffy. I like to play with it, I like to feed
it, so I like to take care of it. Pushok is very tender, and it loves
me too. Every evening it meets me near the house, and every morning it
goes with me to the bureau and that it returns. You will laugh at me,
but I must be sure that somebody or something waits for me in the house, no matter if it’s just my cat. I hope you do. I heard if a
person has a pet in a house and if he takes a good care of it the person is a very good house keeper. I belive it. Marina has a cat at
home too, and our cats like to play together. But sometimes cats fight.
I’m sorry that I pay too much attention to it in my letters and may be
you are not interested in it at all, but I want to tell you about the
dearest living being in my life.Your picture is excellent! I am glad to see it. I hope, that you
will send me pictures still. I shall wait your pictures and to send my. In weekend I was in Tula in a cinema. I didn't look Russian movie.
Because this session began late. I and Marina looked "Catwoman". This
very entertainment american movie. I like this movie. Marina was delight also. After arrival from Tula I to cook my favorite a dish -
pancakes. I made it with jam a gooseberry. Very tasty. It's a pity, that I cannot treat you. I'm glad, that you have holiday Thanksgiving. In Russia it don't
celebrate. Most the major holidays in Russia New year. We like this holiday very much. Probably during week I will prepare for future house repair. I’ll
look for people who will help me with it. I imagine my house after repair. It will be very cosy and nice, if everything will go well. I’m sorry, Patrick, probably my letter is sad but I think you’ll
be interested in thoughts and feelings. Tell me, if something will be
interesting for you. I’ll tell you it in detail. I send you pictures. I hope you will read names of pictures and
will understand. I think to you it will be interesting to see these. My
friends Marina and Elena are very dear to me.
With best regards.
Tatyana.
Letter #7/I shall be the surgeon November 30, 2004
Hi my Patrick!
I'm very glad that you have written to me. I need your letters more and more often. They make me happy. You have sent a pictures. I am grateful to you. It is pleasant for
me to see. I like your a pictures. I hope, that you like my. By the way, about my favorite color. I cannot tell unequivocally.
Because for clothes it's blue as the sky. For car it's red., etc. Hope
you understand, that for all things I've no uniform favorite color. I never was abroad Russia. But I hope sometime to visit other
countries. Patrick, you have asked about arrival in the USA. I don't
exclude it. But I think early to speak about it. Because you one with
whom I'm familiar in the USA. I would like to know more about you before to speak about visiting you. Hope we can wait? You not against? Now about my family. My mum had no sisters and brothers. Therefore
I've no cousins. To me it's sometimes very lonely. But I'm glad, that I
have Elena and Marina. Patrick I was determined with work in clinic! I shall be the
surgeon. I've told to my present boss that I leave work in a bureau. He
was upset, but has wished me of good luck in medicine. I shall soon have 40 days a free time. Then I shall work as the surgeon. Hope, that
you is glad for me because the surgeon is my favourite trade. It’s sad,
that in Anishino is not present internet-cafe. But anyhow I can write to
you letters from a bureau or clinics. Now I don't see a life without
dialogue with you. Today I have been late for work. When I woke up in the morning, my
neighbour came to me. She is an old woman and she is a very good and
king woman. we address each other when we need something. Today she came to me because she had a problem. The door to her house has been
broken and she couldn’t close it. She lives alone as well, her husband
died 5 years ago and now nobody is ready to help her. So, I went to have a look at the door. We tried to repair it but we could do nothing.
I am a bad carpenter (smile). As it turned out something was wrong with
a lock, it was necessary to ask a specialist’s help. Masha (this is my
neighbour’s name) was very disappointed, what we could do, we are women, and it was clear that a specialist’s help was necessary. I tried
to calm down my neighbour because she doesn’t feel well and it’s very
dangerous for her to be nervous. She had to be hospitalized, but she
refused to do it and now she has to take injections every day. I promised to ask for a carpenter. In our office there is a man, who is
responsible for repair, if something is wrong with the bureau. He drinks alcohol a lot, but he has “golden hands” (in Russia it means
that a person with “golden hands” can do all the things very good) I
want to ask him to help my neighbour with her door. I want, that he attempt to repair my roof. I do not know whether he will agree. I shall
hope for his help. I can’t find him now but as soon as I see him I’ll
ask. It is very important to help old people. More than it our government doesn't treat old people well. Pensions are tiny. They don’t
get any social aid. Our medicine is not free of charge. Old people have
to spend all the money on medicines. Of course it is not good, it’s
unfair, unjust. But the economic situation in Russia is not highly developed. Well I am not interested in politics but the question about
social aid is very important for me. I heard that in your country it is
on high level, isn’t it?I wish you happiness.
Your Tatyana.
Letter #8/ I shall work in clinic December 5, 2004
Hi my Patrick!
Now I'm writing to your letter and I'm happy. It's very pleasant that I have such a friend as you are. It's a pity that you are far from
me, over the ocean. But I will hope that we will meet one day. I think
we will be glad to see each other when we know each other better. Marina ask me about you every day. I say to her that I'm constantly
thinking about you Patrick. She is glad for me, and she always asks me
to remember her to you. Earlier I didn't manage to find the carpenter. But today I have
seen him in the morning and I asked him to repair the door in the Masha's house. In the afternoon he came and said that he had done
everything and changed the lock. I thanked him but he said: "Never mind" becouse he is always ready to help old people. My neighour came a
little bit later and told me about the carpenter. It turned out that he
refused to take money for his work. Masha tried to give him some money
but he said that he would be offended if she didn't stop doing it. Masha said: "He has gone with nothing". By the way he and his college
will repair my roof in the house. You know many people in Russia help
other people and don't take money for it, if they know that the people
have to money. I think it's the only good feature of character of the
Ruaaian people which roots go to the old far USSR. It's a pity that many Russian men became alcoholics. I remember that many-many years ago
my mum and I had to make a fence around our house. But what could we
do? My mum and I? When my mother came to a shop to buy nails, three men
from Anishino asked her what for she needed nails. She told them and
they began laughing, when learnt that a young lady and her little daughter wanted to do. They came to our house together with my mom and
everything was ready in the evening. They repesed to teke money. The
only thing we could do for them just to feed them with pancakes after
their work. By the way since that time it is my favorite food. One of
the man asked if the had something to paint the fence. My mum answered
that she would buy paint a little bit leter. Bu the very next day in
the morning the 2 men came and they brought their own paint and paited
the fence. We wanted to pay them for it some money, but they refused.They said that the paint was left after the painting of their
fence. There are 2 similar fences in Anishino since that time. Yesterday in the evening I was thinking of my future work in the
clinic. I'm happy that I will get my favorite job. I should not study,
because I have the diploma of the surgeon of the European standard. But
I will have the more month between the finishing working in the marrige
bureau and the beginnig working in the clinic. I don't know how to spend this month, I don't want to waste my time uselessy. I must think
it over. Of course I will write letters to you. But it will take only
the part of my day. What to do in the rest? I must find a decision. I send you pictures. These are taken in city Sochi. Sochi - Russian
a city-resort. Many Russians have a rest there. I was in Sochi in 2003.
I hope to you these pictures will like. Sorry, pictures have bad quality. I hope Patrick, you are not sick and tired of my letter.But I want
to tell you much. I think you are not against of it, because I suppose
you are myfriend. Don't forget to write letters to me.
Your Tatyana.
Letter # 9/ X-boyfriend December 7, 2004 In the letter before this one I asked for her address.
Hi my Patrick!
Hello Patrick! How are you? I think you are my friend. And do you think the same? Today I've the big desire to write to you. Hope you
don't object? Thanks for a pictures. I am glad to see. You should know, that foto
it's always nteresting to me. I think, that we should study well each
other. And pictures very much help us. Thanks for eCard. But unfortunately I cannot see it. Because I've
no an opportunity of an easy approach in the Internet. I can receive
your letters only.
Sorry, I could not congratulate your mum yesterday. Hope you'll congratulate her today? Tell to her "Hi" from Russia. I think you
really the careful and ympathetic son. Your mum should be proud of you. Also it's very interesting to me to learn about Christmas world. We
have no anything similar in Russia. Probably it's very convenient for
people. By the way, I understand your desire to have my address. But I
shall not tell to you it now. Hope you'll understand my anxiety. I
practically am not familiar with you. Therefore I shall not tell to you
my address now. I shall write to you later. I shall necessarily tell to
you my address later when I shall be confident you!!! I suppose I can tell you about my bad
experience in relations. If you are not interested in it you may stop reading the letter. I won't
be offended. I think I can tell you the story because you have become
very very close to me recently. I hope you have an idea of the problem
with alcohol in Russia and I suppose you understand why I don't want to
look for a husband in Russia. Let's begin since the very first day of the acquaintance. I worked
in the clinic as a surgeon's assistant. I was going home after my work
but it began raining and I could not go because I had left my umbrella
at home. It was summer but never the less I didn't want to get wet and
to take a cold. I was standing under the roof of the building waiting
till the rain would stop. But the rain was not going to stop and I wanted to go home in the rain. But a young man was going in my
direction with an umbrella. He saw that I couldn't go with an umbrella
and offered me to take his one. I asked him: "And what about you?" He
said that he would spend some time in the clinic and may be the rain
would stop soon. I asked how I would be able to return him the umbrella. he said his adress to me and his name. His name is Vladimir.
It was not far from the clinic. I wrote down his adress and promised to
give him the umbrella the next day in the evening. On my home I thanked
the yuong man and asked the God to stop the rain. But it was raining
the whole night. I cursed myself that I had taken the umbrella and that
he was wet to the skin because of me. I didn't sleep a wink at night. The next day in the clinic was so long for me. I was lookingforward
to finishing my work to give the umbrella back to Vladimir. I wanted to
learn how he was. As soon as my working day was over, I chanded my
working clother and left my work. Vladimir was standing at the door smiling. It turned out that he remembered the time when my work was
over. He came to meet me. I asked about his health at once. he said that everything was all right. He didn't get too wet because he was
running home. Then we walked for a long time. we talked a lot. My mum
had died already and i was alone. He was the dearest and the closest
man in the world for me at that time. He saw much of each other at time. But i didn't invite him my house I wanted to check him.
Once we were invited to a Birthday party of his friend. I agreed to go to see his friends, as i wanted to know more about him. Vladimir
didn't drink even champagne. I thought it was because of me, because I
didn't drink as well. But his friends told me that Vladimir really didn't drink alcohol. I liked Vladimir. I think so did he. we became
more than friends and he began to live in my house. First 2 months we
were very happy, we were on the seveth heaven. But then he got a very
good job. He became a lawyer. he made much money. But he began drinking
alcohol. At first a little bit - then more and more. he didn't sleep at
home at night. When he was drunk he began beating me. I tolerated, I
beared it. I thought he change for the better, that he would the same
he had been before. But nothing chanded. Once I was beaten by him bitterly and left my house. He didn't came back 9 days. Our friends
told me that they had seen Vladimir with other girls. I came to the conclusion that it was enough to bear it. When he came back he even
wasn't sorry and didn't apologize. I don't think that he had forgotten
that he had beaten me. I didn't say a word in the evening. I started
the talk in the morning when he was sober. So I made him leave my house
forever. He was shouting, screaming and he even broke a foto in the
frame where my mom and I were. I saad to him that I would call a
police, well he had gone. Forever. Now I am happy that I didn't marry
him. I don't want such relations once again. Almost all Rusian men drink alcohol alot that's why I don't want to have any relations with
them. I suppose you understand me, Patrick.
I'm sorry my letter is too long. But I wanted to show you what I am feeling. I am very happy that I got acquainted with you. I hope our
communication will never stop. I send you two pictures. There where tea - I on work in a bureau.
It is a lunch break. There where milk is a bar Tula. I seldom drink alcohol, even in a bar. Hope you like these pictures. Marina has told
to you "Hi". She advised to send you these pictures. Has told, that you
should see me everyone. I agree with her. I have to finish me letter. Thanks that you write me.
With all my heart, your Tatyana.
P.S. By the way, I have overlooked to tell to you. Today carpenters have
repaired my roof. I am happy! It is very little necessary for the lonely woman for happiness!!! (smile) My roof was repaired by the same
carpenter who repaired Masha's door. He has again refused to take the
money. I have told, that I indignant. But nevertheless I could present
him two bottles of vodka. The carpenter has agreed to take only it.
Letter #10/ Very important December 10, 2004
Now this one is funny! In the letter 3 days before this one she didn’t trust me enough to give me her address, now not only does she give it to me,In the next letter she wants to come and stay with me for 2-3 weeks….Hmmmm…The suspicion is being confirmed!! BTW I sent her a Christmas card to this address and she never said a word about getting or not getting it even though I asked her about it several times.
Hi my Patrick!
I'm very glad to write you again. Patrick, I was thinking for a long time how I can spend the free time between the finishing working
in the bureau and the beginning working in the clinic. We have no
internet - cafe in Anishino. I'm afraid that I won't be allowed to use
the computer in the bureau, I won't be able to write you during the whole long month. Yes, to me promised an opportunity to write to you.
But I'm not confident... I imagine that I'll have to waste my time at
home, locked in the 4 walls. Or I'll have to wander along the streets
and to sleep crying the whole night. I can't imagine that I'll have no
chance to communicate with you during this time. My heart bacame empty
when I imagined all this. I have come to the conclusion that all this
is not for me. I want to spend my vacation with you. I must do something to take the chance. Just to meet you. That is all what I
need, that is all what I want now. I know one of visas agency. I wondered how much it would cost for me to make American visa. They said that only the examination of application for visa will
cost me 100 dollars USA. This money won't be returned even if the application is rejected. To gat visa I must go to Moscow where is the
American Embassy. I'll to visit a lot of agencies, offices and organization in Tula and in Moscow. This is the usual way to get visa,
it may take me many months. I said to them that I could't wait for a
long time. And they offered me to solve the problem and it will take me
less time if I use Full Package of Service (FPS). FPS includes additional payments for a category of the visa, consular services,
preparation for interview with commission. FPS costs 335 dollars USA,
but the visas agencyremove all the problems and thus increases the chance of getting a visa without excessive delays (I can get a visa in
a week or two). I thought for a long time and came to the conclusion
that this variant is the only right for me. I agreed and registeredmy
application for visa, hoping that you'll be glad to meet me. Can you
imagine that we'll spend some weeks together? I'm immensely happy when
I'm thinking about the opportunity. I howe some money and I don't want
to ask you about it. I'll be able to come to your country paying my own money. I'll be everything myself? May be you think I try to do too quickly, probably you suppose it's
too earty everything us to meet each other. But I can't wait for ages,
I'm happy now at present time. Necessary to begin moving to howe something in your life, it's important to go ahead, to overcome
difficulties to take aim. Very soon I'll leave the bureau and I'll be
able to spend my vacation with my friend, Patrick. I have never been
abroad. but now I have a chanceto meet you. It's a dream. You are my
friend, and friend sometimes meet each other. I think it will be great,
wonderful, fantastic. I hope you don't think that I'm too impudent. I
just want to mut you and to spend some time with you. I suppose you haven't changed yoyr attitude towards me after this letter. I'm
lookingforward to seeing to calm down my heart. Please tell me you be
able to meet me? Will you be happy to face me? I hope you'll!!! Now, Patrick, I think, I can write to you my address because I trust
you. But I very much ask to not send me anything. Because service I shall esteem in Russia works disgustingly. They have constant losses
and delays of parcels. Especially I don't want to be obliged. I'm
independent.

Thanks for a pictures. It's very interesting to me. I am glad to exchange with you pictures. I hope, that you like ALL my pictures. If
is not present, tell to me.
I read about your last relations. You had really a difficult life. I understand you. I've found very interesting the fact, that you don't
want the woman from the USA. I think it a gift from the god. Excited
Tatyana.
Letter #11/ I think of you December 13, 2004
She calls her flowers Patrick, isn’t that sweet!!! Strangely she starts signing her letters Tanya even though I called her Tatyana in all my letters .Maybe she was mixing me up with all those other guys she was trying to scam money out of,Wadda ya think?
Hi my dear Patrick!
I talked to Marina about you Patrick for a long time yesterday in the evening. I told her that I wanted to meet you. Marina supported me
in my desire. She said that I could't miss a chanse to see you. Marina
is very glad that I've got acquainted with you. She wants me to be
happy. I hope, Patrick, that one day you and Marina will be friends. I
believe that Marina'll be as close to you as to me. Now I often think of you before sleeping.I think about our letters
to each other. I often ask myself what will be then, when we'll fase.
Patrick, you know I have a flower Herbicin at home. It's very beautiful, and it needs much care. Now I call it Patrick. I hope you
are not againstof it. Every morning I say to it "Good morning, Patrick". It's pity that it can't speak to me. It's very interesting
how long would we be able to talk when we met for the first time. What
do you think of it? It seems to me that I want to tell you much and it
will take me several days to tell all about myself.But I'm shy and can
be confused when I'll meet you for the first time. But I think that we
are mare than friends that is why we will be able to speak of what we
want. I saw a plane not long ago. And I thought that these "Iron birds"
allow to meet million peaple who are happy to see each other every day
(for example Patrick and I). But when I think about my future flight
on board the blane I can't forget last catastropher of two planes. These incidents were in August. It was terrible to see grief and tears
of relatives of the dead people. Now our government is sure that terrorist acts took place hare. I believe that guilty people will be
severely punished. They have no right to prevent peaceful people from
living. I hate terrorism and violence! You should know that fear of terrorists will never stop me. I'll be able to fly on board the plane
and to be afraid of nothing. In my childnood I was flyining by plane.
But people sai that flights are if it's true. I heard that passangers
are very well served during the flight. I'm interested to see it. Sorry, but now I don't know exact date when I can arrive to you.
But I shall necessarily inform when I can. Hope you can patiently wait?
I'm ready to give much to know precisely when I can see you. I think,
that 2-3 weeks can stay with you. You don't object? I dream to ride on the motorcycle with you! I never go on a
motorcycle before. I will embrace your waist and I will lean to you by
all by my body, the wind will scutch my hair and I will shout to you at
an ear: "I Am Happy!!!!" I'm grateful to you. I saw both your pictures. Wonderfully. Also I
thank you for use of Russian words. This is realy pleasant! The time of my working in the bureau is comming to an end. I think
I shall leave a bureau after 2 weeks. And my a vacation will begin!!!
It's a pity to leave my collegues. We are all friends. I don't want to
think that I'll work with bad people. Because doctors mustn't be bad.
Am I bad? (smile) With many kisses for you.
Your Tanya.
Letter # 12 / My garden for you December 15, 2004
I think she got me and someone else confused on this one because of the subject line “My garden for you”
She says nothing about her garden in this one she named her flowers Patrick for me in the last one. Well I’ll give her a break it must be hard keeping up with so many scams.
Hi my dear Patrick!
I'm writting a letter to you and smiling. I'm constantly thinking of you and I can't concentrate on something else. Today it's a very funny day in the bureau. In the morning we
congratulated our boss on his Birthday. We presented him with brief
case for documents. He said that he estimes highly our attention. I think he is immensely glad to get a present from us. He also said that
it was a surprise that I was going to leave bureau. The boss said that
he can't find such a pretty girl as I'm to work instead of me. And if
the number of just married desreales I'll be guiltu of it. Then he said that it was a joke. I think that a girl who will work
instead of me won't be worse than I am and that the number of weddings won't
decrease. Our boss was in a high spirit. He was joking and kidding all
day long.
By the way, Patrick, I know for a long time that to get visa I must persuade American Embassy that I am sure to come back to Russia. I
also was told that they like when doctors arrive to America. I hope that I am the right person to get visa. Marina is very worried about
me. She will do as much as posible to help me collect all the papers
and documents for getting visa, necessaru for the Embassy. I am happy
to have such a friend. We talk very often and she always supports me in
my idaes and thoughts. Once I asked her what she would do if didn't come back to Russia and didn't write a letter to her. She said that she
would find some money to buy a ticket for a plane, would come to the
USA and would shout at me. But it was just a joke, because she knows
that I'll always find a chance to write a letter to her. Now I must go home. As usual I have a lot to do at home and in my
garden. At home I must to clean (to wash) my clothes. I know that in
other countries people use washing machine for cleaning
theirclothes. But we (people from Anishino) can't afford it. We even don't have good
water pipe for it. That's why it takes me much time to wash clothes.
Then I shall be to cook a potatoes with fried meat. In Russia this dish name "Zharkoe". Whether I don't know there is an analogue in the
USA or not. It is a pity that I can offen you potatoes which I cook. It is a very tasty dish. I hope to get your letter tomorrow.
Your Tanya.
Letter #16/ I hope are in a high spirit December 22, 2004
Hi my dear Patrick!
How are you today? I hope are in a high spirit. But unfortunately I'm in a bad mood today. Today in the morning I was hurrying to my bureau. A car rushed near
me on a high speed. At that time a dog was crossing the road and the
car couldn't stop at once. It was snow in the morning and roads were
slippery. May be that was why the car didn't stop, it knocked the dog
down. The dog at once, it even didn't whimper. I was shoked and even
burst out of crying. Don't think that I'm an easily touched person. But
sometimes I can't prevent myself from crying. To tell the truth I'm a
brave woman. Russian drivers often drive a car on a high speed and sometimes I'm even afraid of crossing the road. Sometimes drives can be
drunk. And can you imagine that it could be a child or a man or woman
who crossed the road instead of the dog. It would be terrible. Life is
really very short and one never knows when it will stop. I believe in
fortune and hope that it didn't prepared me such a horrable death. I'm
sorry for so sad thoughts, probably you don't want to read such lines.
But sometimes I think over my future life. What if a drunk driver will
stop my life. There are a lot of such accidents in Russia. Of course
I'm not very afraid of death, but I'm afraid of the fact that nothing
will be rest after my death. Probably only my friends will notice that
I have gone. It's really terrible and I don't want to die as a lonely
person. I want to live in a care and tenderness and love with my sweetheart and never think of sad things. I think you are really sick
and tired of my silly thoughts but I must share my feeling with you. I
hope you will understand me. There are such moments of life when one
must explain his or her feelings and thoughts to a daer person. This
person for me is you, Patrick. By the way I forget to tell you one more news. I have finised to collect documents for the clinic and now I
give my analyses to be cheked for a medical comission to ofter them to
the Embassy. I'm waiting for the invitation from Moscow to take part in
the interview in the Embassy. They say that they will ask a lot of difficult question and some personal questions. Patrick, I'm very
nervous. But I'm eager to meet you and now I think I will over come any
difficulties. I'm ready to do a lot just to meet you. Thanks for the information relative the airport. I cannot tell
precisely when I shall arrive to you. But I shall necessarily inform
when I shall know it. I like a picture "Patrick And Tatayana At Sochi". I hope sometime
to be in Sochi together. It will be fine time. Now many people say that I'm pretty and beautiful. May be people
just want to plead me. Sometimes I remember my school years. At that
time I was far from being beautiful. I was wearing iron cramps on my
teeth. I didn't like to look at myself in a mirror, everybody called me
"saberteeth" in my school. Probably you are laughing now but I felt me
ill at ease at that time. My mom tried tocalm me down and she said that
would be a very beautiful lady in some years. She said that only bad
people could say such terrible things about me. My mom had always been
the dearest and the closest person for me. Do you remember your school
years? What were you like? Do American school children often give nicknames to their schoolmates?
I'm sorry. I must finish my letter. But I think I will able write you again very soon. And you Patrick don't forget to write me more and
more. My best regards and hugs. Kiss you. Your Tanya.
Marina has say "Hello" to you. And us has together wished good relations. I've told to Marina "Thanks". And from you too.
Letter #16/ Moscow December 24, 2004
This one is Interesting. December 24th is my birthday. She takes the time to write a very short letter but never bothers to tell me “Happy Birthday”. To this day she hasn’t wished me a happy Birthday…Geez I though all she did was
think of me all the time!! At leased that’s what she keeps telling me!! LOL
Hi my dear Patrick!
Yesterday I was very tired. I had a lot of work at home and collecting in Moscow. Now I near Embassy the USA in internet-cafe. I
write to you the letter and I worry. I think, that my destiny today is
solved. Hope to me'll give the visa and I can meet you. It will be the
greatest day in my life!! It's a pity, that I cannot write for a long
time. Probably soon it's necessary for me to go in Embassy. Here it's a
lot of people. I never thought, that many people want to arrive in the
USA forever. I hope, that I can soon write to you about results of visit to
Embassy. If I can't write from Moscow I shall write from Anishino. Your and only your Tanya.
Letter #17/ Commission December 29, 2004
Hi my dearest Patrick!
I write to you the letter and I smile. I'm so glad! If I could, I would speak with you for a long time for a long time. But unfortunately
now it is impossible. But I am confident, that our meeting will take
place also we shall speak in person. I'm grateful for a pictures. You very nice. To you spoke earlier,
what you have very clever eyes? It would be pleasant to speak with you
in person. Patrick, I want to tell to you about the commission in Moscow. I
hope to you it interestingly!!! I can probably have the visa. Because I
tried for it much. I worry, you should understand it. I never thought that the commission will ask such unusual
questions. They asked about my sexual life, they asked about children,
about work, about patriotism, about my attitude to America, about my
conversance and awareness of events which happened in the world and in
America, about my religion and belief. I have told about all my life in
detail. I spoke about verything fairly how it's really. To me have told that my answers are unexpected and as a rule applicants don't
answer such questions so directly and openly. They haven't got used to
hear such answers, but they said that to hear sincere and truthful
answers is much more pleasant than words which come not from heart and
reason. Children from the orphanages also have made the big impression
and rendered the big influence on the commission. To me have told that
I the first lady who have such support from children - orphans. Now I
should wait the decision. Now I agree with expression: "Expectation of
death is worse than the death" I can't concentrate on anything. My heart so worry, I can't work. They have told that the decision will be
accepted in several days. I so worry. I so want that this small dream
was come true. I simply want to see my lovely friend. I think the God
will help me. I simply want to meet you. I already see us together and
I sink in dreams. I want to construct with you the ship to float under
sails in boundless ocean. I want to meet with you a dawn and to see off
a sundown. We will float on our ship and our love will illuminate our
way. We will look at night at stars, we'll be pleased in the afternoon
to the sun. If there will be a storm, our love will protect us. If there will be a calm, our love will be a wind. Our love will be a
beacon for us. We will be floating at ocean of love and oblivion and
nothing can separate us. We'll name our ship - Dream. It will be the
small ship, but very strong. Because we will make our ship from belief,
hope and love.
It's impossible to wait, when your dream will fall to you from the sky. It's necessary to go to the dream. It's necessary to clear and
build the road itself. If in heart there is a belief and dream, if in
heart there is a love and hope, it is necessary to achieve the dream by
all means. I always go to the dream. I don't sit on a place. In my life
there were very few light moments. On this I try to make everything that my dreams have come true. I understand that now it's only dreams.
But these dreams brighten my life. I hope that yours also. Now my boss does not speak anything about when I shall finish work
in a bureau. But anyhow I shall ask him to let off me when I shall receive the visa. Nothing will keep me to arrive to you Patrick!!! I send you a picture. You can see a monument of ancient Russia.
It's a fortress, which near Saint Petersburg. The man it's dressed specially for tourists to see as soldiers in the eighteenth century put
on. Hope you like my picture.
With tenderness your Tanya.
Letter #20/ Suitcase January 9, 2005
I knew the next one would be the miracle letter weret everything finally came together. The B.S. gets deep in this one.

I write to you the letter and I smile. I'm so glad! If I could, I would speak with you for a long time for a long time. But unfortunately

Letter #21/ I need you very much January 12, 2005
The money shot!! This letter is Identical to the other 2 in the other links. It’s just a paste “Joe Blow’s” name, city and time of arrival here. Ya gotta love it!!
Hello my dearest Patrick!
I have good news, very good for me and for you! I have looked forward to this day. Yesterday I visited American Embassy in Moscow
again. I have got the visa. I'm immensely happy. I will leave the work
in the bureau on the 17 of January and I willbe able to come to you.
I will be able to see you in person!!!
I addressed the company which sells tickets for plans. I asked them how I would be able to go to Tampa on the 18 of January,
and how much it would cost. They said that the ticket would cost $932 USD.
I asked them to find a cheaper ticket, because the price is too high for
me. But as it turned out I wouldn't be able to have a cheaper ticket so
quicly, the date is too early. Tickets must be reserved long beforehand. I asked them to offfer me other variants of the flight. We
found the most suitable one. The flight, is on the 20 of January 2005. The ticket costs $897 USD. I asked the to reserve the ticket for
me. But they refused to do it having said that they had a lot of clients. They can't reserve my ticket without adwanced money. I was
imploring them. But it didn't work. They said that they would help me
with great pleasure but they couldn't. The rules are so. I was in a panic, I was so disappointed. Then I asked themif I could give just a
part of the money. But they didn't agree again. I asked them for a long
time saying that my fiance Patrick is waiting for me. If I asked them a
little bit longer I would burst out of crying. Maybe God heard my
prayers, and the service worked agreed to reserve the ticket on my conditions. But I have too little time to pay, for the ticket. They
said if I didn't day the rest of the ticket price, I would loose the
money I'd already given to them. I was angry, but they explained that
it would be very difficult to sell the ticket for the plane which is
flying. They would have to lower the price. I agreed. They told me to
pay $570 USD. But it was too much for me, because I had only $450. I asked to wait for me during 2 hours. I went out of the room. Marina met
me at the door. I told her everything. She understood everything and adviced
me to pawn our treasures to a pawnshop. Patrick, it was very difficult for me to
agree to do it. I didn't want to burden Marina. But at the same time I want
to meet you, Patrick very much. We pawned the treasures, I got $120 USD
and I paid the part of the ticket price $570 USD. It was my last money,
it was for the plane by which I'm going to come to you. The date and the number of the flight Aeroflot-Russian International Airlines
315.
Departure from Moscow is 3.30 pm
Arrival to Tampa (TPA) is 11.17 pm.
I change the plane in New York (JFK), number of the flight Delta 1993.
After it I'll come to Tampa (TPA) to you, Patrick. It was very difficult for me to tell you this story. I have done
all what I could. I have paid for the visa. I have paid for the part of
the ticket. But this was not enough. The money was not enough. I didn't
want to burden you. I wanted to come to you with nobody's help. I thought my money would be enough. But I failed. Now I feel guilty
muself. I didn't manage to do all myselffor our meeting. I thought nothing would prevent me from meeting you. But I must pay the rest of
the money for the ticket It's just $327 USD.I must pay it till the 18
of January. Otherwise I will loose the money I have paid and i will loose the chance to see you. And our treasures will be soldby the
pawnshop. Now I feel guilty that I could not do what i promised to come
to you with my own money. I always do what I promise. I feel il at ease
now, I'm ashamed of asking you to help me. Unfortunately the bureau didn't pay me the money I'd earned. I really hoped to get this money.
It would solve all the problems. But I'll get the money from the bureau
in a month or two. Because it's very typical for Russia to hold up the
payments of salary. I asked the bureau to give me my money earlier, but
thay refused to do it. Now the bureau doesn't have the money necessary
for me. Our bureau depends on the budget, it didn't get money for a long time. I think it's because of the terrorist acts in Moscow and in
Beslan. Probably I must say to you that I won't be able to meet you becouse
I won't be able to pay the whole sum of money myself. Of course I
realize that I shouldn't ask you to give me the money. But at the time
I can't just that I won't come to you. I have done too much to organize
our meeting. If I refuse to meet you it will mean that everything was
in voun. It's torrible for me to refuse to come to you, I have done all
what I could. Now I want you to help me and I think there is nothing
horrable if I ask you to help me. Of course I realize that may be you
have no feelings to me and may be you you're not interested in our meeting. I understsnd that the sum of money is too big. I know it and
that's why it's more difficult for me to ask it from you. But at the
sametime any person can find himself in my conditions. And now there is
only one thing which I can do. I just must say that I will never come
to you. But I don't want to say so, because I want to meet you. That's
why I must be honest, I need your help. Of course I understend that I
mustn't do it. But I'm an honest person. I'm ashaneed of asking you to
help me, but life is a difficult thing, everything can happen. Of
course it's up to you to decide if you want to help me or not. It's bad, but not fatal. I will loose my money. It's bad but not mortal
either. $335 USD which I have paid for the visa and $570 USD which I
have paid for the ticket are too much for me. But I'm not sorry for what I have done for our meeting. In fact money is just paper, our
treasures are just metal details. That's why I was the first who decided to meet each other. But I don't want all my efforts to be spent
in vain. If you really want to meet me, if you can help me to organize
our meeting please send me the money till the morning of the 18 of January, 2005. I don't want you to think that I'm not an honest
person. That's why I send you the copy of my visa. I wanted to show it
to you (but not to ask for the help). I asked people from the Embassy
to scan the visa by cd. If you can help me, I send you my coordinates. Marina said that you
can use some sistem. I addressed the nearest bank. They said they have
"Western Union". They told me that it's the best way for me to get money. There is other remittance system, but at present unfortunately
it doesn't work all the time, because some renovation and upgrade ofthe equipment and signalizing system are made there. But they say that
"Western Union" always works and people trust it. I give you the necessary details to send me the money by "Western Union".

They said to me in the bank that to get money from you I must say to the bank workers your full name, you full address, the exact sum of
money, which I must get and some confidental numbers (MTCN this 10 digitals). This number will be given to you by your bank, if you send
me your help. Only in the case when all the information is sent to me I
will get your help. Please forgive me my words. I say so because I'm in despair. Now
when just one step can connect us, I'm afraid. I need you, I want to be
with you, I need you help, believe me, I'm honest with you. I didn't
manage to estimate my forces. And all my efforts spent in vain. I understand that the sum of money is too big for you. I didn't want to
ask you. I can do everything myself. My loneliness made me strong. I
had always been living with my own efforts I always relied on myself. I
asked somebody to help me very selcom, but now I ask you to help me. I
will give you all the money back as soon as I'm able. Maybe I made you
offended. But I need you. I don't know if my letter satisfacted you or
disappointed. But I have written you an honest letter. I'm looking forwarol to you answer.
I hope for you.
Your Tanya.
Will I write her back? You betcha!! I will be informing her that I have given her info and pics to the American/Russian Embassy and that I have posted her info and pics on numerous scam sites!!

Hello;
A person with the name of on your scam list started writing me recently. Her picture was too perfect for me to accept. This person uses an address -- which is different from your scam list.
630099
Russia
Krasnoyarsk city
Lenina street 11-3
Yuliya Fisunova
I will be more than happy to forward all of her letters and information to you. For some reason her letters arrive at my email address around 4:00 pm Montana time which makes no sense if she truly is in Russia.
She has also made some errors in her writings to myself. Furthermore her letters seem to much like a form letter. If she truly cared about dogs and cats she would have addressed this in the middle of the email to me.
Should I play with this scam and let this person become angry or should I just drop this person?
The new email address this person gives is:
The new email this person gave is: yulya_2005@inbox.ru
In a way this is a shame for all the true Russian women that want a mate, for she is destroying possible contacts for them
Sincerely, Gary

Hello, I am 26 single male working in the computer industry. I recently contacted a russian women claiming to be residing in a small town in Missouri. I contacted her and then the "hot and heavy" emails started. She was VERY excited to be recieving my emails and wanted to come see me very badly. Finally, after i started to get a little suspicious she then actually sent the email wanting me to send her money western union so she can get the airfare/visa/insurance paid for. I never fell for it, i just played along wasting this persons time since i am sure she/he wasted others.

Emilia Florentina Mihalache (Romania)
I met this woman through a online dating service used widely in the US. By the second letter, the cry was she needed $270.00 for "university diploma." She clamed to be in her final year of Law School, but couldn't afford the diploma fee.To make a long story short, she had feelings of Love by the 4th letter. I did send 270.00 before I knew it was a scam. What did it for me was that she was dumb enough to send me a picture of her, a beautiful blonde girl, and her "best friend" on her 25 th birthday. Now I had received over 40 pictures of this blonde girl. They were real pictures, some from a bar or club with friends. Some were "modeling" photos.But there was that one of the two of them. I was naive to all this scamming as this was the first foreign woman I had spoken to. But I did learn of all the anti scam sites. So I entered her name in a google search. There it was. But the picture wasn't of the blonde girl, but of the friend. The name she uses is Emilia Florentina Mihalache. The two are obviously working together. A Russian private investigator did a basic background check for me, and found that the address she had given belonged to someone else. Also, according to him, there is nobody named Emilia Florentina Mihalache in all of Romania. I noticed her email was a server out of Germany. She uses T_babe26@web.de. I have over 20 letters from her, and 4 of them are identical to those found on
stop-scammers.com. She uses the same letters. The dark haired woman is the one that uses the name Emilia Florentina Mihalache. The blonde girl is the one who you think you are talking to.
I also have the Western Union copy if you should need it.
