Mail order brides scam, international marriage scam, Russian women scam - let's fight it!

1. Hi my new friend Pete.
Sorry for delay... It was very pleasant for me to receive your answer.
I hope now we can begin our dating. Some days ago I have come to
computer just
to find some information and was looking through the sites. And
my eyes fell down on your profile. It was some dating site.
It called IwantU if I am right...
I liked your information and I have seen and decided to
write you to learn more about you.
So if it is interesting for you,
I believe I should tell you now more about myself.
My name is Mariya, shortly Masha.
But you can call me how you want, it is the same name.
I'm 28 years old soon 29. I was born on December, 22, 1977.
I was born and I live now in Russia, in city Tomsk.
It is about 3500 km to east from Moscow in the cantral part of Russia.
I have never was been outside of Russia but I have been in several
cities in my country. I have never had friends from other countries
therefore it is very intersting for me to have new friend from another
country. I'm brunette with grey eyes. Sometimes I color my hair.
My real hair color is brown.
My height 5 ' 7 ", weight about 62 kg (120 pounds). I live alone
in an apartment. My mom lives in my city also not far from me. I use
the
program-translator therefore my apologies for bad English language. I
hope that you will understand me. I shall wait your following letter
and want to learn about you more in detail.
I sending a picture to you like I promised…
Not very good pic but you can just see how I looks like...
Hope you will like me, anyway I will wait for your
next letter soon.
Mariya
2. Hi my friend Pete.
Hope it is OK for you that I call you my friend.
It is very pleasant to me to receive your pic…
My apologies for not writting some important information about me
in the first letter. Please sorry. I have no the computer at home and
consequently I write you from Internet Cafe.
This is paid service of granting of work on the computer
and grantings of using of a network the Internet. Therefore sometimes
I would not be able to write to you everyday. Please sorry for it.
Also please sorry but I have not access to chat online, it is very
expensive here, I hope you will understand my situation and you will
continue to write letters to my e-mail address, OK???
Also I can not use computer at work because I do not have personal
computer at work and nobody can not use computer in individual
missions at all here.
OK here is some more things about me.
My mom is 57 years old but she is much younger. I very much love her
because she one at me. My daddy has died when to me was 26 years 2
years ago.
He had got in failure and next day he had died in hospital of loss of
blood. But time flies imperceptibly and I have reconciled to his loss.
I work as a consultant of women clothes in the local shop.
My work consists in consultations about clothes to people
which come to buy it in our shop. Also I help women to try on dress.
Our shop calls "Caravan". Though I have a high
education, I can't find job on my profession that is why I work there
to be more independent. My work quiet and easy. I like my work though
it does not bring to me the big money. But to find such work in Russia
it is very difficult, therefore to have to remain on this place. And
do you like your work? What do you do at work? I quite often get tired
at
work and I come home to sleep. Because there are in shop alot of people
many visitors sometimes and I get tired strongly.
But I shall find time to write to you.
Excuse if I shall not answer you some of your questions or it
is wrong to understand them, simply the program of translation on the
computer works automatically and does not take into account features
of our languages. Therefore sometimes I have to think of a
question or a word myself. Because I know English sometimes slightly
apply
the knowledge reading your letters.
I wait for your answer with impatience...
Mariya

3. Hi my dear friend Pete.
Again I came to the Internet cafe just to get a letter from you. It
always brings me so much joy to read what you write me, about your
life there.
You know I have never been in USA and to come to USA is only my dream.
May be I should tell you more about my job. As I already told you I
work as a consultant in the shop of women' clothes. In general I like
my job,
I see and communicate with many interesting people there.
But it is a hard work because I have to stay there till late and
walk from one place to another. But this job allows me to have an
independent
life and to earn for my living.
I have high education and my profession is economist of light industry
but right now I have work to not my profession
because I can not find a place because here are not enough companies
work in this sphere… May be one day I can find my work but it would
not be in our city.
I have never told to you about that that I like. I love sports
very much: tennis, swimming, volleyball... I love to see some extreme
kinds of sports such as windserfing, skateboard, motorbikes shows.
I also love winter kinds of sports: ski, skate, snowboards…
And what kinds of sports like you?
I do not drink and I do not smoke and I think
it a bad habit though some my friends and familiar do it, but I am not
offended on them and I think it business of everyone and I do not
interfere with their life. I do not drink though in holidays I like to
drink champagne or a wine, beer in small amounts also is pleasant
though never I take a great interest alcohol.
And what kind of drinks do you like?
I like to listen to music. I like various styles. I listen to
different music from classical music to rock, new waves depending
on my mood. And what kinds of music is pleasant to you?
I like to cook. I love Russian food, but it demands very big efforts. I
think that preparation of Russian dish this present art. Some dishes
demand very long operating time above them, but then the dish turns
out very tasty and appetizing. Sometimes I like to eat in McDonald's
but not regulary.
And what food do you like???
I with impatience shall wait your following letter.
Sorry but I do not have home phone at all.
You know also I can not use to call to you a work telephone because it
is forbidden here. I can not promise to you anything about phone
callings…
So please do not be mad at me, OK???
And it is a pic of me again… Hope you'll like this pic.
It was made in Sochi where I have had rest few months ago.
Sochi is the Southern part of Russia and most people likes to go for
the rest to there.

4. My dear friend Pete.
It was very pleasant for me to read your letter again.
You know I forgot to inform you in the last letters that I single.
I have never been married and I have not any kids. I am single now….
I have not a boyfriend also because I can not find him…
Although three years ago I have had a boyfriend, but he have left me to
other girl because she was rich. I think that he has acted ugly though
it is his affairs and I am not in the right to decide for him. I am not
in
the right to interfere with his life. Now I have no boyfriend also
because I can not find the good person. Here in Russia it is very
difficult for making because many men drinks and rough with girls. I
am so tired to search a male for future life or just a boyfriend for
myself
because I am tired to be alone. But to find good male here is really
difficult mission for women. And I want to love and which tendernesses
so do not
suffice me. I have few friends although they quite good people. We
frequently meet with them on a nature and we have a rest, play
volleyball and badminthon, we talk, sometimes we drink beer or wine.
But I can not find a male for myself among them, because almost all
my friends in pairs. And how does you and your friends have a rest?
Do you have alot of friends or few good friends as me?
Write to me about it because it will be very interesting to me to know
it...
Sometimes I like to be alone, I like to see the rain, I like to watch
TV sometimes
but not often, I like to read books. Most of all I love Russian classic
literature. I love to read Michael Sholohov, Lev Tolstoy, Aleksander
Pushkin, Anton Chehov, Dostoevsky and Bulgakov…
Also I like to read Victor Hugo and Stephen King. Do you know these
writers???
Miss your letters…
Your russain friend Mariya

5. Hi!!!!
The time is goes and I have not a new
letters from you. Do you have a problems
or do not want to write to me? Please
write a reason because I waiting your
letters every day and I want to know
what happened.
Mariya…

6. Hi my favorite friend Pete.
Yes, I really call you favorite because I like to communicate with you
and
to tell you about the life. You are very pleasant for me as
good pen-pal and simple friend. I called you favorite because
I like to write and discuss with you on some themes which I do not
discuss even with not all of my girlfriends.You know sometimes it would
be desirable
to me even to appear near to you and to take your hands
and to look in your eyes. Your letters are very pleasant for me.
Today one of my girlfriend has Birthday and I have left work earlier
and have asked to
remain the co-worker for me at work. Her 3 best girlfriends came to
wish Happy Birthady
to her today. We drank tea some wine and ate an apple pie.
It is 32 years old to my girlfriend today.
We have talked alot about life I have spoken few words about you.
My girlfriends are very glad that I have communication with you.
And how do you and your country celebrate holidays and what?
Is it frequently?
My favorite holidays are my Birthday and New Year Ave, and yours???
We have the middle of autumn right now, I like autumn but when is not
cold,
I am tired from cold weather and winter sometime winters in Russia are
Very cold about –35* C and during 4-5 months a year
and I do not like such weather. Mostly I like warm summer season.
But usually we enjoy summer, sun and beach only 3 month a year.
And here is my pic for you again. This pic also was made in southern
part of Russia, at Black sea near one hotel, hope you like this pic
also...
You know I have never been in USA and to come to USA is only my dream.

7. Hi my favorite friend Pete.
You know when I read your letters my heart
begin to beat fastly and more strongly. It feels heat and tenderness.
You know I never tested anything similar and sometimes begin to think
that I have more feelings to you than to just a friend.
I did not tell to you in the last letter that few days ago I had
beautiful dream about us.
I saw that I ran on a high grass on a field. I ran long and the longer
I ran the more
strongly I felt heat on the body. Then in the distance I have seen
your silhouette and began to run faster. I have approached to you,
have taken your hands, then have strongly embraced you and you have
presented me a sweet sweet kiss. I have woken up from it and my body
was wet. I never thought that I shall test to you such feelings, but
speak that the love comes suddenly and quickly.
May be it seems some strange for both of us, but I have really had
such dream. Please do not think badly about me, I only write that I
really have had.
And would you like to appear in my dream and to present me a kiss?
Pete, what you think of it?
It would be very pleasant for me to meet each other one days.
I was worry when I was write this words to you but please understand I
only write what I think no more. It is my real feelings.
Please understand that I do not have computer at home and each my
letter to you costs money for me therefore please try to understand my
situation and this reason I can not send to you my pic in each my
letter to you.
I shall wait your answer with impatience...
Mariya

8. Hi my lovely friend Pete. Thanks for e-card!!!
You know today I have left work earlier because wanted to read your
letter. All day at work I thought about you only. My co-workers asked
me why I am such thoughtful, but I did not begin to speak them about
that
I have some feelings and dreams about you and me. Yes, and it is really
such way... I frequently think of that that I want to nestle on you and
to
feel your body. I want that your hands touched and ironed my body. I
want to feel your breath your tenderness to me. My feelings to you
grows day by day. I can not understand what happens with me.
I think I falling in love to you. I have never thought that it might
happen such way via internet and computer but I really have real
feelings to you, and it would very pleasant for me (and may be for
you also) to meet each other some day…
What you think if I want to come to visit you?
It would very interesting for me to know it.
Pete, I shall wait your letter with huge impatience.

9. Hi, my favourite friend Pete.
I became very happy to receive your letters.
You know I forgot to write to you my last name in my last letter to
you. My full name Mariya Krohmalyova. But You know it would be better
if
you continue write to me using internet because russian post work very
very bad and most of letters do not come to address… But if you want
to send a letter to you it will very pleasant to me if I would get it.
So my full address:
Mariya Krohmalyova,
42 Novgorodskaya Street, apt# 18
Tomsk, 634041
Russia.
If you do not remember I do not have home phone at all.
You know also I can not use to call to you a work telephone because it
is forbidden here. I can not promise to you about phone calling but I
will try to do it… I think it would better if we will use an internet.
For these letters I have understood, that you that which I waited all
these years. All my ideas of steel only about you, I live by dream to
meet you faster. But while I can not make it because I have a lot of
works now. I can inform you about it in some days, mine love. I am
very tired from our city, our cold, I want to receive heat and love
from your words, your touches. I think, that you will become happy,
when we shall meet. I wait for this day each day. And you? I have
understood, that it is the real love, I dreamed of it for a long time.
It so is wonderful for knowing about that that on the other end of
light me my waits favourite. You know, all my cares were beaten off by
my love to you, I very wait for this meeting. I never thought, that
will grow fond of the man which is some senior than me. But your last
letters have forced to understand to me that I do not test similar to
my friends. I already for a long time did not meet them because I
think only of you. I have forgotten about hobbie, I think of work a
little. The friends have noticed that I became slightly another, but
they do not represent that my life became another after meeting with
you.
I love to dream of you.
It so good and pleasant for me.
Here is two pic of me again for you. They were made in Southern part
of Russia also. Hope you will like these pic.
Also please send me the name of your closest international airport or
some of them. Simply I want to learn how much it is costs for me to
come to you. It would better for me if I will know it faster.
Mariya

10. Hi my lovely friend Pete.
I am very glad to read your letter again.
I never wrote to you about that I have a hobby - I collect old coins.
I have about 65 in my collection. I began to be engaged in it when
to me was about 6 years. I very much like to do it but I have no many
money to increase a collection new copies. But I do not worry about it
because I treat quietly this. I think that it is pleasant to you.
You know for these some letters I have fallen in love with you very
strongly. I for a long time did not test anything to men, and you seem
have demented me. I understand that it a little bit silly so quickly
to fall in love but it is valid so. I never thought that I shall fall
in love with persons with help Internet but I so have strongly grown
fond of you that to me now not important as we have got acquainted
with you because the main thing this that that I love you madly and it
is very healthy...
I very much want to arrive to you but unfortunately
I have no such opportunity. Yesterday I have learned all about my trip
to you, I must have registration of visa and passport, so I must pay
about 250-290 $ US for those things. This amount includes: payment for
visa and passport registration, payment for promptness
because sometimes registration borrow 4-6 months. Also this price
include Interview in embassy and medicalsurvey. (I must have blood
testing before leaving) I will have work visa so my firm
will pay for tickets so you must not worry about tickets or money for
tickets because my working firm will pay for this. But I must ask
money help from you for payment for registration of my work visa and
passport to your country, because I do not have any money right now.
So please try to find way to help me this money sooner, so I might pay
for it because as you may understand it will borrow sometime. So if
you would send money help that amount today or tomorrow I will be able
to pick up your money help faster and pay for it, so it would take
less time... I dream to
appear about you and to present you the present love, the present
passion which you did not test already for a long time.
It would very pleasant for me if you will be able to help to me amount
for visa and passport sooner.
So if you will help to me this money it would nessesary to do
it via Money Gram or Western Union transfer system because we have only
these
kinds of transfer syster in our city. Also as I have heard it is
faster and easy, because sending money via mail or post office is some
dangerous like I have already explained to you, even our post office
has attention papers "Do not sending money and expensive things via
post". Also it is not nesesary to send via any other system because
simply we do not have any others really.
If you can make it today that to me it will be very pleasant.
So I can give my money for registration of the passport and the visa
that
will borrow in time about 2 weeks.
Though if you cannot will make it today it would very
pleasantly to me to know date when you can make it really that I have
calculated the days and most quickly appeared with you.
Pete, I want to be only yours.
I love you and very much I miss on you.
Yours and only yours Mariya Krohmalyova
