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

02/15/2007
Hello! I received your email and it was nice to meet you on dating
site. Thank you for your answer!
I've never used this dating thing before and I don't know what should
I write here. OK, I will write you some facts about myself.
I decided to use internet to find man because I will come to your country
to work over there. About three months ago I learnt it is possible
to go over there and find a work. I think it's a great chance to earn
some money and learn some things about your culture.
I don't have any friends or relatives over there
and maybe we can try to get to know each other better so when I come I
will not feel lonely over there.
I'm a single girl. I don't have a boyfriend at the moment, I've never
been married. I had a boyfriend but we broke up 6 months ago.
It will be interesting for me to be your friend or
your woman because I've never talked to a foreign man in real life and
I want to try this!
Maybe you can be my friend and something more then just a friend. If
you like me of course...
At the moment I'm in Russia, I will start my trip in about 2 weeks.
I've never been to your country and actually I've never been abroad.
I will apply for a work visa so I will have a permission to work in
any city in your country. I will have to pass English tests to get
this visa and I think I will not fail! I can speak and write English,
I don't use a dictionary or translator and I'm sorry if there are some
mistakes. I'd been learning English in school and at the University
and that's why I can speak English.
What else can I say... if you want to meet me in your city, if you
like my photos then I will tell you more in my next email. If you send
me your recent pic that would be good!
That would be great to stay in contact with you, let me know if you
are interested! Please try to tell me something about yourself. I
promise if you answer in my next email I will tell you more
interesting details about myself!

My best wishes to you, Yulija.

P.S. I'm sending few pics, let me know if you would like I can send
some more.

I'm sending two more pics. I really don't have much time now. I still
remember about you. Today after work I will write you more
informative email and tell you more about me.
I'm really sorry but this will be short!

Jimmy, hi again. I smiled when I noticed your email in my mailbox! I'm
happy you answered my email. I don't know why but I feel something
special about you, I can't explain this... but I feel if we meet each
other we will like each other. I don't know why I picked you... I
believe in destiny.
OK, as you know I'm 25 years old. Actually I don't remember if I wrote
you my age last time, I hope I wrote it! My birthday is March 4.
So this year I will be 26 years old! Believe me or not but almost all
of my friends are married! In Russia it's a common thing that girls
get married very early. With my last boyfriend we broke up because he
lost his job in my city and moved to another one.
I live in the city called Seversk. You probably never heard about it.
It's situated near the big city Tomsk. Seversk is not that big city.
I work in a shop as an adviser. We sell clothes from Europe. I've
been told I have a good taste and style. I don't work on my
profession. I have a medic Education, I have a diploma of Medic
Academy of Tomsk where I studied for 6 years, my specialization is
stomatology. There are only 3 stomatology places in my city and there
is no free work there. I'd been working as a nurse during one year but
nurses don't payed well here in Russia. Now I receive about 250 $ a
month and it's a good income for people who live in my city.
I want to earn more money and have a better life and that's why I
decided to find a work over there. I will tell you more about this
work program later, OK?
Forgot to let you know my height and weight (I think you would like to
know such details!). My height is 5.5 (167 cm) and my weight is 55 kg
( think it's about 122 in your measurements). I didn't measure
another parts of my body, sorry =)) but I want to assure you they are
very nice =))
I have few hobbies. One of them is aerobics. I do it at home and
that's how I keep myself healthy and in a good shape!
Another hobby is horses. I don't have my own horse but I like to ride
horses so much! My father taught me how to do it when I was 14 years
old.
I live with my mom, father and sister in apartment. It's quite small.
Our family is very happy! My mom is 45 years old (she is a school
teacher of mathematics, my father is 61 (he is retired).
My sister is 21. She goes to the University, psychology faculty.
In case you need my address it is Russia, Seversk, Kuzmina 24-34.
I will try to find some pics of Seversk for you and send next time.
PLease send me few pics of your city and tell me more about it. Also
what is the name of the Airport over there? Does it receive
international flights?
I have to go now. I have a computer at home, it's very old but we
don't have any Internet so I write you from Internet Cafe which is
situated in the library.
The last thing I want to say is that I'm very honest, caring, tender,
passionate, creative and sincere person. I'm looking for my "second
part". All external characteristics are not important to me. The inner
world is much more important. But I still can't explain the qualities
I'm looking for... maybe it's kindness... honesty... I don't know what
else! When I'm in love I can't explain why I'm in love! Love is a
feeling which doesn't have any explanation!
So please tell me more about you and your city. I'm really interested
to get to know you better. I think I will start my trip in few days so
please write me more!!! I really have to go, my mom is waiting for me,
we will go shopping for food, I promise I will write you as soon as I
can!


Kisses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yulija

P.S. Three pics for you!!!! Two of them were taken in Anapa, South of
Russia and one pic is me with my sister.

today after my work I came here to internet cafe to write you a short
email. I just want to let you know I still think about you. I'm very
tired and hungry now, I can't write a long email.
I really think about you often and I wonder why. I almost don't know
you. As I wrote you physical characteristics are not important to me.
I've never cared about appearance, age and so on. But I feel you are a
good man and I hope you are!
I was never married, have no kids. Although I love kids.
I wish we could chat in messenger but there is no messenger here. Soon
I will go to Moscow to get my documents and to start my trip and I
will call you from there. I'm going to ask my parents today what they
think about our meeting.
I drink socially, I don't smoke, smokers don't bother me.
Sorry my email is not so sweet today but I'm really tired. I will go
home now. Today was my last day at work before I start my trip.
I'm sending few pics of my city.

02/20/2007
Jimmy! Hi!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so sorry I didn't write you sooner. I had so many
things to do before I leave my city. I had few small problems but now
everything seems to be OK. I packed all my bags. I'm not taking too
many clothes with me. I will have one big bag and one small. Not too
much things to carry. As soon as I learn more information about my
trip I will write you everything.
I liked the pics you've sent me.
Today evening I will go to Tomsk by bus and at night I will fly from
Tomsk to Moscow by plane. When I come over there I will settle down
and write you and email.
If that's possible please check one more time the thing with your
closest international Airport and write me. I just want to be sure
it's really international and close to you. And please check for the
code of the Airport. For example the code of Sheremetyevo in Moscow is
SVO.
I have few arrangements about my work. As soon as I check everything
one more time in Moscow I will write you about it. Now I just don't
want to write anything what is not confirmed.
I like to listen to the music. I will take a CD played with me. I
like many bands: Enigma, Massive Attack, Muse. I like movies of
Quentin Tarantino and their soundtracks!!! He is my favorite director.
Do you like Tarantino?
One of my favorite actors is Johnny Depp. As for actress I like Amy
Smart. Also I like some Russian actors but I think you've never heard
of them.
As for food... I like to eat! And sometimes I even eat in fast food. I
understand it's not healthy but I prefer to do more sports to eating
less food. I like to cook by myself. I can cook anything but I prefer
Italian food. Do you know how to boil spaghetti? =)))) It's important
to boil it only 2-3 minutes so they are not becoming too soft. I try to
eat healthy food. I go to fast food only about once a week.
Actually I don't have much time now and all my thoughts are in a
mess. So I don't know what could I write. I'm so nervous to start my
trip and I'm almost shaking! I will miss my family and friend so much!
I already miss them... I understand it was my choice to take this
chance of working abroad and I will try to be strong!
Please write me something nice so I will calm down! I really hope you
are interested. I even told my parents about you. They said I'm a "big
girl" and if I feel you are special to me then we will like each
other.
I have a feeling like butterflies are flying in my stormach! Not less
then one thousand of butterflies!
I'm attaching three pics for you, just usual pics.
If you want we can talk by phone before I come to you, I can call you
later from Moscow. We have some days to arrange this before I come.
Please don't forget to check your international Airport one more time!
Thank you!

Lot's of kisses!!!

Hi! Finally I'm in Moscow.
Now I have mixed feelings about everything. Sometimes I feel great
happiness and excitement and sometimes I feel so lonely... I think
soon it will be OK!
I'm so sorry again I don't have much time to write now. This will be
short, I just want to let you know I arrived here, I'm safe and I
didn't forget about you.
I just settled down and I will write you all details in my next email.
Tomorrow morning I have to pass English tests, I wrote you, I need to
pass in to get my work visa. Now I want to go and repeat some grammar.
I hope you understand. Tomorrow I will write you much more about
everything, now I really have to go.
Every time I think about you I smile )) Thought about you make my
heart warmer. I promise tomorrow I will write more.

Always yours,
Yulija

Hello! I have great news!!! Today I passed that English test without any
problems!!! On Monday I will have more info about all arrangements!
Saturday and Sunday is a weekend so I will have more info only on
Monday!
I thought the test would be more difficult but it was OK!
I stayed in hotel, I think I will come to you next week. I will write
you all exact details and I will let you know as soon as I can!
If you are not sure you want me to stay with you I can stay in youth
hostel (I'm not sure how to write it), it's really cheap.
Of course Moscow is very crowded city, so much people! Anyway it
doesn't bother me, I like new adventures and impressions!
I haven't visited any sightseeings, I didn't have enough time... so
maybe tomorrow.
By the way I wrote I have stomatologist diploma, I'm not sure you
understand, I don't know if you have such word in your language, that
means I can work as a dentist.
Also I think I didn't write you when I get my visa I can stay over
there for 6 months. After that I can prolong my visa and stay more.
Today I copied by xerox (I don't know if it's right word) my
documents for the embassy. I decided to send a copy of my driver's
licence. I didn't write you I can drive a car. Although I don't have
my own car, sometimes I drive a car of my father but now often. It's
just a usual Russian car. I've got my licence in 2004 and I've been
told it's international.
I hope on Monday I will have some more information for you.
I can't write you longer emails because I write you from Internet
cafe.
I miss you so much and I really think about you all the time!
Also I'm sending two pics from Moscow.


Yours,
Yulija
