Hello,



From your blacklist site, there already appear to be two Daria Sapicheeva's scamming from various places in Russia. I recently had an encounter with a third Daria Sapicheva, this one supposedly from near Irkutsk, and I wish to warn your readers about her. Her email is dari_fitt2007@yafex.net

, a site that has no webmaster.

I am a 58 white professional living in Canada and it seems can't say no to a pretty face. This Daria is very very pretty. Pictures started appearing on my email late last year. Eventually I responded with a

question, "who are you?" The response I got was that she was 25, and was looking for a husband/lover/friend, someone to be with. The correspondence got more intimate over the next few weeks, into January 2009 and after. She reluctantly sent a semi-naked picture of herself

in a gymnastic pose and then later sent more naked pictures, with much protest that she was not that kind of girl.

But she also seemed very determined to come to Canada, talked about an agency that had made the arrangements for her and other girls. I expressed concern that there might be some sex trade angle here and to be careful. By then supposedly she'd flown from Irkutsk to Moscow and sent me through a travel agency an itinerary with flight numbers, announcing her imminent arrival. In her letters, she was quite chatty and friendly and talked about Russian cooking, what movies she liked

and stuff liked that. She seemed really nice.

Then I got the email that she needed to have a return ticket and would I pay for it by Western Union. I should have twigged at that point but I didn't. I thought she was a real person, and a pretty gutsy one to want to leave Russia and come here and try to start a new life. So I sent her 0USD to a 'bank' in Moscow. I wrote down the wrong control number and soon an email arrived saying she hadn't received the money.

Her general tone in her emails was very affectionate, although certain personal things I'd mention just got no answer. I found the right control number and sent it to her. The money was picked up in Perm,

not Moscow, I learned from Western Union when I tried to stop the transfer. By then I'd found your site and the other Daria Sapicheevas and knew I'd been well played.

From your site I read the stories of other fools like me from Germany and elsewhere. All the letters were with minor variations the same. I learned also that scammers are not their pictures and in fact you have no idea who you are writing to. This Daria probably doesn't even exist and the real scammers were using someone's pictures obtained from who knows where. Who knows?

The final bit of nerve was to receive another email asking for 00 for a visa. At that point, I told her to forget it--and that's been that.

My story is not different from others on your site. We are stupid, gullible men, and being somewhat lonely quite ready to believe we've gotten lucky, especially if the correspondent appears to be a very

attractive woman.

All these scams are very well organized, and have some plausibility especially if you think you are writing to a "real" person. This is perhaps what infuriates me the most! We so should know better-- and it was an expensive way to have to learn this simple lesson.

I am not sending her letters since they are so much like all the others. I will attach two pictures she sent because hers is a new face under an already used name.

I hope you publish this as yet another warning to guys like me who fall for a pretty face,

Michael

Dear Michael, it's me again,

honey I have a few news one of them are nice and other are not so nice.

At first I am so happy that we will be together in a few days and I will begin new life,it seems to me I live in any Hollywood film and I am main hero.funny really ? I think you think that I am silly girl but try to imagine it is first time I have so many impressions,so many nice dreams and so many plans, I do hope it will work well.well,about our business!

you know that I have been at the Embassy today and had an interview there.

We have talked alot, they asked me about my income and property of my parents,also I showed paper that I booked tickets with returning dates.the things is that too many young people want to live in your country and embassy make many barriers on this way!it seems to me that look at me they think that I want to stay forever and don't return home ,but one good thing they tell I have enough good english !well,bad news is that now my visa is ready but not approved , because I need to show to the custom service and to the visa passport service living minimum for this period of time ,it means that I have to have money with me. the amount is 2000. It is law of passport visa service and they require it to make sure that person have enough money for living needs and will not stay inlegally.

I have told them that I will work and earn money but they tell that it is not their business and it is very strong rule for all persons who wants to leave Russia. In other case if i don't have this amount with me visa process will be canceled.

Honey I know that it sounds ugly but again nice thing that all the money will be with me and I will only show it and save it with me and when you meet me in airport I will return all amount to you, maybe I spend a few dollars to bye any small gift for you,only 10 or 20 dollars!Honey my honey please try to send money as soon as possible I need to approve my visa till Monday ( January, 19 my last interview ),do not worry This is our last step and we will be together. I will be waiting for your answer today. Remember I do not pay this amount just show that I have.

I will wait for your info and I do hope it is last problem on this way,I hate politicans , they imagined so many barriers and borders,why simple people can't just meet each other? I can't understand it!They fly without any problems and we have to pay so much, I can't understand why? you know all info to transfer money! e-mail,thank you ! and last bad news is that I will travel to you on Tuesday, January, 20 ,the same flight and the same time of my arriving!

I had to change the date of my flight ,I couldn't get Sunday flight ,too many problems and I am just lost!

Love you and counting days and minutes before our meeting.

Million Kisses, Your!I do hope to kiss you in real life in a few days and do hope it will be so warm and long kiss! maybe you will be tired of it?



Your Daria





>So "Daria",Western Union tells me you picked up the money in Perm at about 7 am today Russian time. Well, enjoy it. And I guess you are not in Moscow at all as you said. I really wonder just who the hell you are? Don't care about a name, just tell me for my own curiosity.Michael

Hello Michael!



Thanks for your care!



Today or tomorrow I’ll take the money, then I’ll buy a ticket and I’ll write you at once.



I want to be with you very much. I want to feel hot all over from your loving arms and tender lips.

I want you to look only to my side. I’ m exited when a man try to get my love sincerely and romantic.

In these cases I always reciprocate his feelings. And then I’m on cloud nine.

I dream about you tender kisses that make my head to go round.

My heard is bleeding when I see grief in letters.

I like to read your letters. They seem to be full of desires. This makes me happy.

Sometimes I want to understand what are your really dreams about? May be you are unhappy or you are lack of something.

If it is true it will be over very soon. You will be ok, you will have everything.

Love is the most important thing in life. Call me loudly! Wake me up from cruel reality!

I will gift you with love and affection! My heart will be beating without restraint only with you.

I dream to stiffen in your sweet arms. I want my neck to be covered with you light kisses, I want your hands to slide down and I would set them straight.

I dream to bit your ears slightly and to whisper you the words of love. I dream you to smile confusedly.

I dream us to be happy together.

I dream our hands to interlace and our hearts to breath in one burst of passion.

Here I am dreaming? And what if you feel lonely at the moment or something hurts you.

Or on the contrary you give you love to another. If it is so my heart will be broken, because it is very fragile.



I will protect and keep you away from the temptation to look at other girls!!!!!

Love you! Daria

My Michael!



I couldn't get the money.

I was told at Western Union agent that there is no money available under given MTCN.Please repeat it.

Do you have a copy of Western Union receipt that I can show to people at local Western Union office?

I've been told that this could solve the problem. I am not sure if it will, but let's see if this helps.

I really hope it will.

I am so glad to see that we are almost near our goal,and our meeting wait for us. I think I will call you from airport before my flight.

You know I booked tickets on Sunday 18 flight and I will buy them before my intervew. People from embassy must be sure that I am not going to stay illegally, so I need to buy roundtrip tickets (with returning date).

I wanted to ask you about electronic tickets but they tell that I can't use because it is their businees to arrange all travel details and they have some extra money from all the things, you see it is just business.I think that you will be able to help me because I don't know anybody here and only you are my hope now, I think everything in your hands and I believe that you will not leave me here alone.please borrow some money. I am sure I will be able to return all your money back after a few weeks, I will get salary and I will collect the sum I own from you.

To be fair I am not sure I know what to say because I hate to ask but now I have no different way, you see.Please help me it is only money and much more important if we will meet in person I will do my

best, you won`t be disappoined. I see that it sounds a little crazy but I can't believe that in the worst case I have to return home,they all will laugh at me.I think it rests with you to decide and I feel that

you will help me because you are kind. I have about 300 US dollars yet and I think I need about 980 US dollars from your side with all travel needs and living here till my flight! (I had 1180 dollars, but flight from Irkutsk, opening visa, medical insurance and all travel needs costed about 800 dollars).

For truth I didn`t expect I will need to buy roundtrip tickets, but now I see that its a very strict rule.



Please send it today by Western Union or Money Gram

I will write you details:



>> !!! <<



Send it to Russia, Daria Sapichevaa !!!!This is my full name!



Also I've got an advice to send you a scan copy of my passport in case you need to confirm my details.



This is my full name used in all official documents. They said this is all info you need.

But please for any case write down more info. The address where I'm staying:

Rjabinowaya street 70-38, post code (zip) 117545, I rent a small room In an apartment of an old policeman here, it's cheaper then hotel.The address of the closest Western Union (or MoneyGram) here is:



"MOSCOWBANK" 117545, Moscow, Rjabinowaya street, 59



I have some money but it's not enough to complete my trip.

Please send me 980 US dollars and I will complete my trip!

After it please write me all details about the transfer -



your FULL NAME and Money Transfer Control Number!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will call you as soon as I receive it.

When I receive the money I will pay for my trip and only then the embassy will put all final stamps on my documents.

I've bought you few souvenirs with Russian attributes!!! I'm sure you will like them! If you need something more please let me know, they are not expensive. Also I bought two boxes of Russian

chocolate! I hope so much when I come to you we will like each other!

You are already very special to me!

Please when I come to you tell me more about you and your country!

I will listen to everything you tell me and I will do everything you tell me! I trust you really much!

I hope you will not do something to hurt my feelings.... I think you are really good man. I will never do anything to hurt yours!!!

By statistics Moscow is the second most expensive city in the world after Tokyo... everything is so expensive here... and I have to pay for my rent and food and buy tickets.. please help me..

Sorry if I missed something or didn't comment please let me know I was so busy with with all preparations!!!!

Subject: .. I already started my trip to you!

Reply-To: Daria



Hello!!! I'm so excited to write you again!!!!!!!!!! I'm in Moscow! You can't imagine how happy I am because I already started my trip to you!

I still cannot believe I've done it! WoW! As I wrote you I was scared to fly on the plane but everything was OK and I'm still alive ))))

Moscow is a really big city! I've been told the population of Moscow is about 10 million of people! From the Airport I went by bus... it was so long way... about 1 hour and 30 minutes. I've seen so many nice

places in Moscow while going by bus!

When I got off the plane in the Moscow Airport policeman asked me about passport and he looked at me like I am an enemy )))

I think all people here are a little crazy.

Everything here is very expensive, not like in my city... and everywhere are big crowds of people! Everywhere is so many people! I feel uncomfortable because of it but I hope I will be OK soon.

I found a place to stay, I rent a room from an old policeman. He is about 70 years old. He said his wife died 2 years ago and he doesn`t have money to live, so he give in rent rooms in her apartment.

He is very nice man. He said I have to be very careful.

You know... he said many girls from small cities come to big cities, they are looking for a better future and fortune but because they are from small cities they can`t imagine that their way to find the happiness can be not so easy as they thought... and some of them can end up as prostitutes or something like that. He said I should be careful when I will meet you!! But I don't worry about you! I feel with all my heart you are really nice man!

Sorry I wrote you about my worries.. I have nobody to write about it.

My parents are worried enough about me and I don't want to make them to worry more. I think that's really good I've met you! I can write you about everything. I miss my parents... but I'm getting better with every hour ))

I was in a travel agency, all my documents are ready.

Now they are checking a possible flight to your airport.

They will give me all information (date and time of my arrival, etc.) tomorrow I think. Now I will continue to see Moscow, like a tourist. In Moscow there are so many different museums!

In Moscow its rather hot weather, about +5`C, but I feel myself so alone. :-)

Everyone rush somewhere and I don`t know anybody here.

I will go to The State Tretyakov Gallery (The National Museum of Russian Fine Art).

It is not far from the Kremlin, there should be a lot of tourists from all over the world. I read about this gallery before, its collection contains near 130 000 works of painting, sculpture and graphics.

There there are pictures in cost 250 million dollars!!!!!

It should be really amazing!!! Ok, I send you a thousand kisses and will wait for your message!!!!



P.S

I`m sending for you some photos of Moscow that I found in internet.

Please confirm the name of international airport (and his code) and be sure you wrote it right.

I am afraid to make any mistake... I hope everything will be fine.

please write me as soon as possible!See you soon! Great kiss from Moscow!!

......now I'm very hungry and I will go and eat something.



Yours Daria

Reply-To: Daria



hello michael! thank you! it's good to write you again! excuse me for previous letter....

I think I'm a lucky girl to meet such good man as you in Internet! I hope I will be lucky enough to meet you in the real life!!! yesterday I told my parents about you.

they said that now they don`tworry about me as before because now they know you are a kind man

and can help me if I will need your help. You can show me your city and tell me about the life over there! I think I didn't write you I like cooking.

I will cook Russian cuisine for you! Pelmeni, vareniki, blini, borsch, okroshka!

You will like it! Besides Russian cuisine I like Italian and Mexican. I love spaghetti and pizzza!!!!! mmmmmmm ! I can't live without it! I like Mexican food because it's very spicy, although I don't cook Mexican dishes too often. I've been told my cooking is very tasty!

I like to cook cakes. my favorite is cheese-cake with raspberry! You know... when I talk about food I'm getting hungry ))) I eat everything and I'm not on any diets but usually I don't eat after 7 pm. This

helps me not to be fat! I can cook many tasty things for you when we will meet! You know..

almost all Russian men are like bears! They are so rude, they can't be nice and polite, they don't want to have a family. I think you are not like them.

I like to go to the cinema! I really like to watch a good movie with my friends. 50 percents of movies in our cinemas are Russian and about 50 American. actually my favorite actor is William Smith and I like all movies with him. I've watched "Hancock" Have you seen it?

could you recommend me any American movie so I can watch it?

What is your favorite movie and actor? Soooooooooooooooo......... what else could I say?

I have a driver's licence but I don't have a car. My father has a russian car and he gives me his car sometimes.

I don`t like only cinema! I like theatre and opera too, I like ballet.

Unfortunately there is only one small theatre in my city and there is nothing interesting. If I want to go to ballet, for example, I should go to Irkutsk, there sometimes can come famous Russian actors and

dancers but I can't go there often because it's quite expensive.

By, the way, one thing else about my trip. Agency will help me to rent a room to stay near my future work. I will share this room with a few girls yet, it is usual procedure and it helps to pay the rent (it will be cheaper).

And I have a question, is it normal if we will like each other may be it is possible to live together?of course if you or somebody doesn't mind.

As you know I will stay there for three months but If I will like there I will be able to prolong my trip. I think I will be able to improve my english and you can learn Russian and I think it will help us to learn each other better,who knows.Do you have a big wide bed?(joke). And now I have some good news for you! After sending this email I will go home, take my packed bags and go to Irkutsk! From there I will fly to Moscow! I`m really afraid to fly on a plane! I hope my plane will not fall down! I'm really afraid!

It is several hours from Irkutsk to Moscow.

when I come to Moscow and settle down I will write you an email. I hope today I will be able to write you. Please don't worry about me if you don't hear from me today, that will mean I was not able to

find a place to stay and I will write you tomorrow.

In Moscow I will spend a week or maybe even more, I should make all final arrangements with my documents and after it I will come to you!

I've never been to Moscow before and I'm so nervous now... I've never went somewhere alone and now I should go alone to such big city!

I really want to talk to you by phone, but as I don`t have a mobile phone, I will find a public phone in Moscow with international calls.

you know... I had such great desire to start my trip already.. and now I feel myself like a newborn kitten who has even didn't open it's eyes... I just want to hug my mommy and don't want to go anywhere...

but I know that's my dream to start a new life and I will try to turn in to reality! Soon you will hear some news from me from Moscow!!!!!!!!



hope I'm only for you! love you and kisses!

I send you promised photos! your Daria

hello michael! wow! I in delight!!!! thank's for your reply so much!!!

can I call you - MY TIGER? :cat: or is better by NAME?

...about age! have you heard a saying The older the violin the sweeter the music?!

I hope soon I will be able to come to your area and we will meet each other!

this time I will write you more about myself. I think you should know more about my life and my hobbies so you will know if we have any common interests. I'm 25 years old, not too young I think? My birthday is 31 January I'm 167 cm tall (5.8) and 58,5 kg weight..

I don't know exactly my bust-waist-hips measurements, I don't have a reason to measure it because I think it's OK and my body is proportionate ))

I take care of my body, I do aerobics three times a week and I go to the swimming pool twice a week.

I have no sister or brother. I live with the father and mother.

We all live in two-rooms flat.

As I wrote you I live in Russia. The name of my city is Sayansk, it's near Irkutsk city. Sayansk is very small and Irkutsk is a large city, the main city in our district.

I graduated from Irkutsk Humanitarian University two years ago.

As I wrote you I`m a menager of the big shop, my city is small but we have a big shop here. Sometimes I attend courses in Irkutsk so I have several diplomas , but you know in russia we don`t have good work opportunities. But this work help me to take care about myself. When I come to your city I think it won`t be a problem to find work on my specialization (I shall work as the simple seller).

my father is 58 years old now, my mom is 46. You see my mom is much younger then my father and they are very happy together. My mother is a teacher of music in the school. I also could play a piano a little. I like classic music, jazz, rock, lounge. I like all kinds of music!

A little about my father: he is in a good shape because we usually make exercises together, he doesn`t work now, because he is retired already.

I love both my parents and I'm happy my parents will be not alone when I leave them and will go to another country. Of course I will miss everybody but I want to have my own happiness!



do you have an International Airport in your city? please write me it's name an code.

or write me the name of the nearest INTERNATIONAL Airport to you.



I write you my emails from Internet cafe, I don't have my own computer.

If you want I can call you when I will be in Moscow, it would be nice to talk to you. We don't have international calls here. I suppose in few days I will fly to Moscow and start my trip! Today I will tell my parents about you, I'm sure they will be happy that someone is waiting for me over there!

There is no any messenger in this Cafe so we can only keep emailing each other. I hope you are not getting bored to read my emails?

My address here is Russia, Sayansk, Sportivnaya street 21 flat 16, post code(zip) - 666304.

So now you have a representation of who I am....

I just can tell you that I enjoy life and I try to live to the fullest, I like to try new things. I'm not that smart.. I was not that good in mathematics, physics, biology and so on! I don't like to be smart! But I'm very tender, caring, artistic, faithful, decent person.

Sometimes I can be not well organized, I think everybody had it's own minuses and pluses. I don't look any special qualities in a man. I just hope he will be faithful to me and ready to create a happy family with me and I will do everything to make him happy. I'm looking for a soulmate!



ok... it's time to finish my email. I'm sending a kiss by the wind to you and if I sent it to the right destination you should receive it by evening )))) I hope you will catch my kiss somehow )))

do you like my photos?



bye!
