Ekaterina
Volkova (Moscow or Kirov)
I was contacted by this person as usual from a profile I have never posted and after a few letters they start to claim love and want money to fly to the states. This one was a bit different in that she claimed she came into some extra money from real estate deal and was buying tickets to come here [ I have seen a similar email on another site]. I had to stop her since I was going into surgery the day after her proposed arrival..she picked the date for arrival on 48 hour notice...so I told her to stop and not come....now she has sold her ticket for pennies on the dollar. Not sure how the scam works if she had not been stopped...maybe stuck in the airport, robbed or claim they need a bunch of money to arrive in the states. But anyway ever since she has been trying to get money. I have found one picture of her on other sites I have scanned so she is not out there very much...not yet anyway.
I have been currently stalling asking for proof of ID and copy of visa and passport...I have not heard from her since the last request, but I suspect she will not give up that easily.
Here are a few recent letters from her.
Letters:
Hello My Love JR!!!
MY Love, I so waited for your letter. I very strongly love you. But I have not understood you.
I have already given to you all data, unless you did not receive it. All data, at you should be.
Or you require in something else?
First name: Ekaterina
last name: Volkova
Country: Russia Federation
Adresse: Lenina house 54 appartament 83 (it is the address where there lives my aunt)
city: Moscow
This all data which are necessary for remittance. After that to you should inform number of transfer
and you should inform me it. Without it I cannot receive money. And I as should know a city of the
sender. From what city money has been sent. More you should not have data for remittance. But if
you require in something else inform me. I love you. And I very much hope, that there is all well.
Also what be very fast we can together. I so dream of that day when I can kiss you and embrace Ivery much I want it. And I
wait it day!!!! And I very much hope, that it is very fast to happen.
I will wait for your letter. I love you.
With Love Ekaterina.
Hello My love JR!!!
My Love, I have just talked to the aunt. And she has told, that it can help me. But it only will be 200$.
But still it will be necessary for me 600$. I will be glad, if you can help me. I have told aunts about
all our situation, and she has understood all. She to me has told, that the best to transfer money through
the company western union. She has told to me, that it used it some times, and never it brought. Certainly
I could transfer tickets for other number. But I have thought, that you at all do not wish to see
me, and that you have simply deceived me. Also has gone also all has canceled. It is so a pity to me. She as
has told in what data you will require for transfer of money. First name: Ekaterina
last name:Volkova Country: Russia Federation Adresse: Lenina house 54 appartament 83 (it is the address where there lives my aunt)
city: Moscow She has told, that these data will be enough for transfer. But if
you require any data at once inform me on it. Dear, to me spoke about the electronic ticket. And me still
then have told, that if I will get it my insurancewill not be valid. And without the insurance it will be
very difficult to drive in your country. I think, that on Nov 22nd would be good date for our meeting. Dear,
I will wait for your letters.
With Love Ekaterina.
 
Yana
(Yarkovo/Tumen, Russia)
I am a White, American male and separated father living in Oregon.
I started receiving these mails just a few days ago, and I have been responding with skepticism, questions, and comments that never get answered. I kinda playing along, because I know it's a scam, but it seems my emails are never read or considered when this person writes back. I'm getting annoyed, and wish there was a way to get these folks in trouble. It seems there may be little to do until I am actually 'robbed' by them, so I feel as though i'm staying in touch with them for almost no reason. But, I will continue for a time to see what happens next. I'm certainly not going to send money just to find out, or to make it a 'crime' or whatever, that seems pointless and a loss to me. Anyway, I hope this might help someone else, or just back up someone else's doubts about these kind of letters. If there was anyway to use this CURRENT and ONGOING scam attempt that is going on RIGHT NOW, then I would do what I could to help whomever trace these thiefs.
Following this are the emails and pics I have recieved, the latest just today, 11/21/08

Carl!! Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so busy last days! Today was the last day of my work here. Also recently we celebrated a birthday of my sister,
everything was OK. I bought her a T-shirt as a present. I told my friends at work about you and they are excited also about
our meeting!!!! Carl as usually I'm sending few pics. Me in the window of my mother's house.
Me with a kitten (it's not mine, it's a kitten of my friend. I have a white cat, her name is Dilly).
And one more pic of me dancing! I can do it very well!!! It's my hobby since I was a kid!
It was a corporate New Year party at my sister's work and she askedme to dance for them!!!! It was my first experience of dancing in a public
place! That happened last New Year! I'm always in a hurry last three days! I have to make so many
arrangements! Tomorrow I will start my trip and I will fly to Moscow.
I packed already some things but not all.It is not that far from my city, about 3 hours by plane. The main
Embassy is in Moscow and all interviews to get a visa people pass over
there. As soon as I come there I will receive more information about everything and I will write you all details of my visa from Moscow and
then I have more time to write you a nice email. Now I'm also in a hurry! I have to translate my professional resume into
English because I will need it in Moscow! Carl I think it will be not hard to translate it, I hope so! I just don't
have enough time to I have to do it as soon as I can. Today came an email for my visa appointment so they are waiting to
have an interview with me and they are ready to give me a visa. They need to see me and check my background and everything and ask me some
questions but that's OK! I will try to write you few more words about me! I like to cook, I've
learnt from my mother how to be a good woman and wife. Of course I was
never married but I'm sure I will be a good wife and I will do everything to make my man happy!!!!!!!!!!!
My mother was a good wife till my father died..... I'm sorry I became sad again..... So many years passed since my father
died but I still remember him like we talked only tomorrow. I want my man to be a good man as my father was. I'm not looking for
any special qualities... I just want to man to love me and take care of me... I'm a one man woman and I don't believe in divorces (I mean I
understand some people get divorced but I want to have my marriage forever!).
I want somebody who is ready to love me forever.
My favorite color is blue.
My favorite flower is pink rose.
As for music I like relaxing music as Enigma, also I like some rock and jazz. I like different music.
I would be happy to write you about my favorite movies, books and everything but my time is limited now and I have to go!!!!
It is so good I'm writing my emails to you!!!!!!!!!! It makes me so happy and also I can practice my English! Sorry I'm sure I made a lot
of mistakes today but I try to type as fast as I can!!!!! I don't know why but I think about you every day! When we celebrated a
birthday (I wrote you) my sister asked me why I look so happy! She thought I've met a Russian man and fall in love with him! She was
shocked when I sad I met a foreign man in Internet and now I think about this man all the time. Now you know I think about you all the
time!!!!! Really!!!! My mother and sister said they wish me luck and also they said hello to you!!!
My father would be so happy if he only knew about my future trip and my meeting with you.... Maybe he looks at me from the heaven now.....
OOOOOOOOOOHHH!!!!!!! I looked at watches here in internet cafe! I have
to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carl I will write you as soon as I can!!!!!!!!!
As soon as I have enough free time I will write you all things you want to know!

don't look fat! Now I have to go to buy a present for a birthday of my sister
she will be 36 tomorrow. I really have to go or all shops will be closed soon. I will write you more as soon as I can. I'm in
a hurry now! Oh Carl ,I forgot to ask you if you have any Airport in your city? Maybe you
know it's initials (I don't know the right word). Maybe it's called
city code. The code of Tumen Airport it (TJM) After shopping I will go to bed and I will dream about you and our

Carl! Hello again! I'm very happy to receive an answer from you! Thank you
so much!
I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I'm new in internet dating and I just don't know what can I expect and if that is possible
to have some kind of relationship in internet and then continue to
build it in the real life. I'm not looking for any special qualities, just a good person!!!
But I really hope to create a serious relationship in my life. And I think I'm ready for marriage.
Of course I want to have a serious relationship but at least I want to
have a friend to be not alone over there. I will come over really soon!
I will tell you everything about my trip as soon as I have all confirmations
about everything, I'm quite superstitious to tell about everything in advance. Sometimes
when you tell everybody about your plans it never works out. So I will
write you about everything in about 2 days.
My birthday is May 25.
As I wrote you I'm 26 years old.
I don't have a boyfriend.
I have a sister, she is 35, I'm sending our photo today!
I have many hobbies. One of them is bowling (you can see it from my
photo I'm sending today). Also I like to sew clothes, that dress from the last pic I made by myself. It's a lot
cheaper to sew clothes then to buy it. As for sports I'm too lazy to go to a gym or do aerobics. I like
swimming! It helps me to be in a good shape. And sometimes I go to
aqua aerobics, I like it much more then usual aerobics! And it's very
good for women to do aqua aerobics because it helps to avoid cellulite. So I'm in a good shape and I have very good skin ))
I work as a cosmetologist in a beauty saloon. My height is 5.5, I'm not sure what is my weight. You see I'm not fat!
I live in the city near Tumen (I'm not sure how to write it in English), it's Tumenskaya oblast. You have states over there (I think
so) and we have oblast (it's like districts). Tumen is a big city and
I live in the city called Yarkovo and work in Tumen. Yarkovo is almost like a village but it's so close to Tumen, only several minutes
by bus so I do all shopping and everything in Tumen. I graduated Tumen Medic Academy five years ago, dermatologist
specialization. Also I passed few courses and have a cosmetologist diploma and
certificate. I live with my mom. My father died seven years ago from the
cancer. My mom is 61 years old, my sister is 35 years old, she lives in
Yarkovo, she is married and has two kids a boy and a girl. My mom lives in a wooden house. I wrote my city is like a
village and everybody who lives near us are good friends and they help
my mom so she is not alone. I'm not at home very often because I work
hard. I don't have any time for private life. I want to go to your country
and to try to start a new life over there. As I told you I will write you more about it later.
Of course I will miss my family but I asked my mom and she said she
will be happy if I start my life and create a family. Please tell me more about your city and life over there, I think I can
come over there. Do you think it's possible to find a work as I nurse
over there? I will check it. You can send me a postcard if you want: Russia, Yarkovo,
Lenina 12. I'm not sure how long does it take to deliver it, maybe I will already leave Russia.
OK I have to go home, I'm so tired. I have a computer at home but no
internet. I would be happy to talk to you by phone someday, I can speak
English, although I'm so nervous to talk to you! I hope we will have
no problems in communicating! Also I write English by myself without any dictionary.
I'm sending three pics: me in bowling center, and two of them from my
work. A woman on a pic is my sister Anna, she came to visit me at my
work. We look like each other but she is not as slim as me because she
already has two kids and her dream now is loose some weight! I think she is still beautiful!
Please tell me more about your work and hobbies!!!!!!!
Kisses!
Yana

Hi, this is me again. Sorry I forgot to write you my height. It's 5.5.
There is a saying in Russia (please don't think it's serious, it's almost a joke) - small women are made for love and tall women are made
for work. I'm not tall but I don't think I'm short either )) I hope my
height is OK for you. Soon I will come to work over there, my profession is a
cosmetologist. I'm not sure it will be possible to find such work over
there in beauty salon and at first I want to try to work as a waitress.
I will have a special invitation to work and I would like to meet a nice man to be my guide or just be good friend to spend time
with. I think that it is hard enough to live in foreign town without friends and also I have never been abroad.
I want to see real life and it is impossible to see without a person who knows all sides of the life.
Last few years appeared a special program "Work and travel" for young people who wants to work abroad. And many people from all over the
world come to your country and it's possible to make good money over
there!!! I also decided to do it! I've already started to register all
documents!!! Do you think it's easy to find a work as a waitress in your city?
I finished my work only one hour ago and I'm very tired now. I will write you everything tomorrow. Sorry this will be short, I'm so
tired now. I hope you will be at least my friend when I come over there soon!
I'm sending more pics, they are just usual pics. I don't have another photos now. I will scan more photos for you
tomorrow..... I will write again tomorrow everything you want to know about me............
Yana

Hi! Not sure how to start...
OK I will start in a standard way...
We've met each other on a dating site.
My name is Yana and I'm 26 years old. I don't have a boyfriend. I want to meet someone special.
Please tell me something about yourself! I think our heart is like an unfinished puzzle, that is why we search
for the perfect one to complete it!!! Do you think so??? Maybe your puzzle can complete mine?
We will see!!! Let's try to get to know each other better! Can I ask you some questions next time?
You can ask me any questions! I don't have any secrets! I hope we match each other!
If it is meant to be, our hearts will find each other when we meet. And if our hearts melt together so will our bodies and souls. Then
every word and every touch will fuel our passion flame. I will be yours, you will be mine, and we will be one.
Oh.... just dreams..... I'm so tired of being alone! Waiting for your answer!
I wonder if you like my photos????
Puzzled,
Yana ))))))
