My name is Fernando,I'm also a victim of Farida Abe. I was so stupid believing that she was a sincere girl; she took from me 1500 USD that I sent to her by WU because we were going to meet in Prague, from the 14th of November till the 1st. of December. After she received the money she disappeared and I did hear from her until the very last day when I was supposes to fly to Prague. Se send me a SMS through her mobile phone saying that she has been robed (airplane tickets, documents, money, etc.). I tried to contact her, but she never answer me again.
This is a chronological order of letters that we rote to each other:

Hello Farida, what a beautiful name!

This is I, a stranger knocking at your door. Open it and you will see? I'm 48 years old, I weight 78 kg, and my height is 180 cm. I'm a manly good-looking gentleman. I'm not fat and I'm not skinny; I take care of my health and workout every day.

I'm spontaneous, caring and the most important, I'm honest and sincere. There is not ideal person, and sometimes I can be a little stubborn and forgetful. I have a high education, went to a University and I also have a commercial pilot license; I used to fly for a commercial airline in Mexico.

Nowadays I fly, as a hobby, in my own airplane and live in Chicago, Illinois running an international company as Vice-president. I'm not just another typical United State guy; I was born in the American Continent, in Mexico and lived for many years in that Country, I also speak Spanish. That makes me more open mind understanding other cultures.

I don't take drugs and I can drink a good bottle of wine on special occasions. I like to experience new things, new places, new people, new cultures; I also can travel anytime and can go to your city to meet you. Wouldn't it be wonderful to meet you in a close future, give you a big hug, hold your hand and come with me back to Chicago?

I like to take part in new fantastic adventures and also traveling or just staying at cozy home with a nice company. It is not just the place; it is whom you are experiencing with!

I could start a relationship with a special woman here in US, in the country I live in, but? I'm interested in you!

Are you free? Where have you been all my life? Would you write me back and tell me about yourself?

Sincerely, Fernando

Hello.

Read your letter and found you by a very attractive man. You interested me.

Let me to tell a little about itself.

I am 26 years (I borned in 1979 in Russia). At me dark grey eyes and light brown (a chesnut) colour hairs. Height – 173 sm, weight – 53 kg. Figure (85 – 60 – 95). Single. Children are not present. I own languages is Russian, French (Fair), English (Fair).

About my family. First ten years to my life I lived with the parents in Switzerland (therefore I a little know French). My father worked as a diplomat at the Russian embassy. My mother is an intellectual woman which knows four foreign languages and house-owner. Then we got back to Russia.

A father worked as partner of large oil company. Two years ago he perished in a motor-car catastrophe.I have a sister which works in the oil company.

Yet at school I dreamed to become a model. Therefore from sixteen years I made attempt itself in model business. Reason at me did not turn out a top-model, I had not survived a diet. Although took off me for the catalogues of underclothes (this is one of two my pictures, then I was 20 years ago).

My dream did not come true fully, but due to my fascination of youth, at me sense of beauty and style is well developed. Besides it, I much traveled and traveled world almost.

I am well formed and have two diplomas. First is university (economy and finances), second is institute (foreign languages).

Presently I work in an oil company. It is the choice of my parents. As well as any woman, I continue to love a fashion and music, including opera.

I like to socialize with people, I love holidays and picnics on nature. Simply I love life.I enjoy the art and cultural events in town.

In youth I went to artistic school. I like to draw and walk on museums, similarly as well as to night-club.

I adore to prepare and is able to do it. I love spicy food meat and. I like the Italian and French kitchen, and also Chinese, Arabic and mexican. I prepare at home usually, as it at anybody does not turn out better, than at me.

In a domestic situation I prefer rest and comfort. I can not stand quarrels and scandals, I got good education. And strict enough education (although I and not very much shy). I am able to behave in any society.
In grain I is quiet, but sociable (if allows knowledge of language) and easy up grade.

I is cheerful, with me as easy as anything to socialize. Really I look at many things. Usually I do not pay attention to the lacks of people (who are not they present at?).

It is talked that I have easy character. I never not on that take in good, if only to do not an obvious meanness me. Quickly I forget all troubles and distressing.

I watch after the exterior, visit a beauty salon. I consider that a woman always must be well-groomed and to look on million dollars (it is a joke, but there is grain of truth in her). Friends count me clever and educated, and men – tempting, perceptible and sexual.

I do not smoke is this insalubrious. I use an alcohol rarely in two-bits in the company of friends, or on holidays.

I trust that love is, it is only needed to manage to save her. In the relations I value loyalty and constancy in senses. I very decent - never in my life I did to nobody nothing bad.

I consider that a man must be more senior than a woman, and even far - in this case he has more responsibility for her, and also for the acts.

In a man I am able to estimate is mind, healthy ambitions, constancy and loyalty, desire to score a success and financial stability in life.

For me his internal qualities are important - that my man possessed the mature look on life, well kept family, was a faithful husband and good father. That he was careful and understanding.

You can ask me about everything, I will endeavour to answer any your questions.

I am adjusted very in earnest. Until now I did not have spare time even, to think of it. I search a man, with whom I would begin the long relations and share my life.

I will be with impatience to wait an answer from you.

With the best wishes.

FARIDA.

Hello Farida,

I think I am still very lucky that you wrote to me and that you are taking some days off from work. Yes I invite you to meet in Paris, any time you want! I think it would be perfect any Friday at the end of November or the beginning of December. Find out in a travel agency what options you have and let me know. I can send you money for the hotel, airplane tickets and extra money for travel expenses. Oh my gad, I've so much enthusiasm that I forgot to tell you more about me ;o)

I live in Chicago, which is a very architectural city in the Midwest of the US. During the summer time, because of the Lake Michigan on the East side of the city, it’s like having a big Ocean with nice beaches crowded with people, jogging, biking, or just taking sun-tan watching the yachts going by. During the winter it gets very cold, we get snow and starts getting wormier till the end of April. I broke my left ankle last year in January when I felled because of the ice on the ground.

Before I came to Chicago in 1995 I did fly as a Commercial Pilot in Mexico and also had other business. Mexico is the Country where I was born; you know, it’s on the South border of US, I do speak Spanish too. After an accident I had, while I was flying a private airplane in 1994, my brother invited me to join him to start a company in the US. I came to Chicago to run the company own by my family. Our main office is in this city but we work in several states of US. Our company is in the business of “wiring money” from US to Mexico and S. America. The business is very good; there are millions of immigrants from those countries who need to send money to their families back home. I'm glad I made this decision, to come to Chicago, our company does good business and also because I like this City. The only thing missing is someone like you! :o(

I have been in Your Country several times an also in Ukraine and Latvia. Are you a Tatar girl? I know people born in Tatarstan don't like to be called Russian, Do you speak Tatar language? I don't ;o)

Farida, our lives are a long chains of fortuities. Some of them are good, some bad ones. We have been planning our life for years ahead, but it can changes in a flash by one small fortuity. But, sometimes we don't realize that destiny gives us a chance, we just let it pass by. Life is going on, and only in future we assume, that we've missed that chance. Let's do not miss that chance!

Tell me more about you, your every day life. I like you very much, I think women from the former USSR “stand out” from the other women in the world. You are a vivid example!

Sincerely,

Fernando

PS I think it would be nice if I can call you on the phone and talk about our meeting in Paris. Can you give me a phone number and the best time (Your local time) to call you. Thanks for the photos, tu eres muy bella mujer, mama mia!

My dear FERNANDO!

I tomorrow go to travel agency to receive the full information about my trip to France. Then I shall write to you.

You remember that I half muslim?! It is improbable!
I live both in Muslim family and in Muslim republic. My native language Tatar (it is similar to turkish language - nearby 30%) but I perfectly speak and I like to speak in Russian. Also I know the Arabian prays but almost I do not understand their value...
I well speak in French and hardly worse in English.

My house phone number 8553250568. A code of Russia 007. But before it, you can send me SMS on my mobile phone +79063317054 and I shall be at home at this time to wait for your inquiry.

And now I think of you. I think of you... I represent our meeting and its first minutes! I wish, that you have told something though possibly I should not tell it. But I want it, you have understood me though a little and felt as I demand love and tenderness... It is not necessary to think of me awfully - I ask you - you actually at all do not know me and my advantages!

I wish to tell to you, that I had only one person in my life. And it has left me right after prime-ministers. It was beautifully and richly, and it was more more senior than I within 20 years. But it anything interested except for its member... And it had a cold and empty heart. I - more with any met... Never. You can forgive me? If you could...

You at all do not represent, my love - as I want you! I wish to satisfy my love in your embraces! I wish to feel your weight on my body! I wish to forget about everything, borrow the editor with you love!
I want, that you - completely loved all - and have given you all my passion, and tenderness, and love...!!!

I very much love you. But it only feelings, and - is more than something. They give me hope for our attitudes. It is necessary for me.

I wait from you the answer.

Kiss you with tenderness.
Yours FARIDA

Hello Farida,
Thanks for your lovely letter, I think you are an Angel! Are you Real ?;o) I guess everybody has their up and down in this life and whatever happen to you in your past, it is something that it is not possible to erase, but it is possible to forget. I will help you!

Farida, it is late at night and I have to go to sleep. I have a unexpected trip, I have to fly tomorrow early to Oregon State; I have to go there, to visit an office of my company and I will be back this Friday. I just want to tell you about our meeting.

I think if you can find reservations to meet in Paris from the 1st of December till the 5th or 6th of December is fine. I don't have too much time to be away from my job. You know, I was thinking that we can also met in Prague, Czech Republic. I have never been there and they say that it is a beautiful city, you do not need visa to go there. Right?

Anyway let me know your finding and write to me, OK. This is my mobile phone if you want to send me SMS USA+XXX XXX-XXX

My dear FERNANDO!

I am interested in you for the several reasons. I loved your person and expression of eyes.
And eyes - soul of the person. And I think that you the good person. I seldom am mistaken in people. On the Internet very few worthy men.

I wish serious attitudes. I quickly believe, that people and they use it. But in me easy character and I very simple in dialogue. Therefore I always am the goods and the world in my soul. I do not like to be angry and to spend during this my time and ideas.

I am lifted in Muslim family. And in me value in a life. In us often probably to see families where the husband is much more senior than the wife. And such families, even more friendly and strong than young!

If the person is more senior than the wife, it only is welcomed in my family - in them more responsibility for actions, and they estimate family and care of it. It is very important. Considering, that young - all the same...

I already was once in Paris (not with the person), and there very much it was pleasant to me. I there walked, came into cafe and drank good wine, I have passed there all excursions. All was excellent! But now there there are disorders in streets and there it is a little dangerous - I saw it on the TV.

I too heard that Prague very beautifulcity and I there too never was. But there safely therefore I have decided to order I wash round the permit to Czechoslovakia.

I went today in travel agency to learn about places. There it is necessary to buy a full tourist trip. In this case they will do the visa in Moscow. The visa there is necessary also it prepare for 10-14 days. All enters into it: hotel (without it do not give the visa), avia the ticket, medical insurance, the visa and services of agency. If the trip to Prague - within 1 week (7 DAYS) - is 730 dollars.

Here they have told the price of the cheapest hotel - 3 stars. I can order on us two this hotel but it will cost more dearly. There I shall leave my tourist group and I shall join you. At me still will be additional charges on road up to Moscow (a taxi up to Kazan, the plane up to Moscow, a feed and still a taxi up to the international airport) is all there and back - 535 dollars. I in fact live in Almetyevsk.

You at all do not represent, my love - as I want you! I wish to satisfy my love in your embraces! I wish to feel your weight on my body! I wish to forget about all being borrowed with you love! I want, that you - completely loved all - and have given you all my passion, both tenderness, and love...!!!

I wait from you for the answer.

Kiss you with tenderness.
Yours FARIDA

Hello dear Farida:

Thanks for you letter, I like the way you think and also the way you addressed to me. You are a nice lady full of love and I want to have a taste of it! I wish I can express my feelings the way you do, I am a romantic person, but in the English language it is difficult to me to do so, but I will do it the day we meet.

I have a good news for you. I do not need visa to go to Prague, it makes it easy for me to make reservations to go there. I can send you the money you told me by Western Union, but we need to coordinate our trips. I need to know the exact date that you can travel to Prague and the date of your return (See if you can make reservation for less than 7 days if not, it is OK)

I also need your full name and the name of the hotel where you make the reservations. So call the travel agency and ask for a possible itinerary (airplane, Hotel name) and send it to me so I can also see if I can make the airplane reservations and a room for me, at the hotel where you will be staying at.

Like I told you I am in Portland Oregon now. It is a beautiful City, a lot of trees, mountains and rivers, I wish you were here to enjoy it together! I will send you a message on your mobile and maybe this week we can talk, OK.

A send you a big hug an many kisses,

Fernando

P.S. Sorry to tell you this, but I hope you are being truthful about our meeting. I do not want to be disappointed, if you do not show up in Prague. I told you this because, once I was betrayed by a women that just took my money and never went to the meeting, OK? I want to believe in you and don't take it personal!
