Scammer details

Report N1 (added on July, 12, 2006)
Hello...I would like to report a new scammer. Her name is "Anna Ivanova". "She" contacted me at City of Brides with the usual, obvious, copied letters and fake photos. There's no money letter because when I challenged her, she admitted to being a man and a scammer!!! I'm enclosing the admission letter but it's in Russian (as is my original), and most of your guests won't be able to understand it. However, I'm also including her photos for the sake of the "division of sexually frustrated" men who "she" claims to be writing to. They might be able to spot her photos on your website and save themselves some embarrassment.

Begging for Americanski $$, this SCAMMER is truly classic. How many times can these Ruskie Ho's twist the travel/visa scam and still get $$ from Westerners? Who is sending these people money anyway?

Al (USA)Report N10 (added on February, 14, 2007)
I received an e-mail from sxymandy@datemasterfinder.com in December 2006, asking to chat with me. I e-mailed her back as it appeared to be genuine I thought and she replied back saying my name is Natalya not Mandy and gave me her real e-mail sladik@outmaildirect.com she told me she was 26 years old and lives in Mira street Berdsk in Russia, here nearest town is Novosibirsk. I exchanged a few e-mails with her and she sent me photos of her as well as passport photo. Natalya told me she wanted to come to Australia to work. She e-mailed asking if I could pay her 0 US (2 Australian) to help her pay for her airfare, because she spent alot of her money getting from Novosibirsk to Moscow. I did this because she made me feel I could trust her. After this said she needed more money KUS. I told her I couldn't afford it and asked her to pay me back 0US, she said she would do this. I trusted her for this. I e-mailed her asking to send me this money back and she didn't respond. I even sent her a letter in the mail and got no reply. I lost 2 Australian Dollars.
Ben (Australia)Report N11 (added on February, 14, 2007)
She contacted me two weeks ago. She would not answer any simple questions. She only gave me her surname and mailing address when she asked for money. She never used my name in any of her letters. She sent photos with less and less clothes before making the request for money. She is very persistent. I told her I NEVER send money to someone I have not met, and she asked anyway.
Rainer (USA)Report N12 (added on March, 13, 2007)
This person contacted me on the True dating site and asked me to e-mail her.Her profile was registered in the USA but she informed me that she was in russia.We began to correspond and she sent me some pics and told me a big sob story about her life. She grew fond of me very quickly and her e-mails became filled with gushing language of undying affection. Long story short she desperately wanted to come to Canada to be with me. I, being ignorant and naive fell for this line of bull and sent her money for documents and airfare.
Tom (Canada)Report N13 (added on March, 21, 2007)
Hi Guys,
I got this email after replying to a gumtree advertisement. Was suspicious when it came through, so googled her email address which is how I came to this website. After seeing other reports, I noticed that she is using the same email, but under a different name and email address now.

Joe (USA)Report N16 (added on April, 24, 2007)
I was contacted annonymously via email from someone who initially called herself 'Holly'. I then responded requesting more information, then had 2 more email exchanges where the person, now going by the name, Inna, said she was from a small town near Irkutsk, Russia, intending to secure a work visa to come to the U.S.A. and wanted to build a new life and a family, and was interested in meeting me. She also sent photos, which I will post. The letters she sent follows a similar style and format to other Scammer postings I have seen on scammers-net in the past.
Robert (USA)Report N17 (added on April, 24, 2007)
Someone emailed me from crebecca43@highfindme.info to which I knew was spam/scam/etc. I was bored so I replied back asking how high the chances were that this was spam.

Typical going to Moscow, though she ended up in St. Petersburg, getting visa and travel to my city to work for 3 months. Then running out of money and could I send her some more, please.

From No where, Received an email message with findmesite,info and the next email message a few days later changed email addresses in header with the content of Tatiana@findmesite.info. Easily, already realized this was a scam. I decided to play on he/she for more info. Sure enough, after several letters, This groupie or single instigator asked for help with the air-fare ticket. I had played along, and sent fake MTCN-10-digit codes three or four times. In between, this, They kept contact,by email for week running ragged, until the accomplices conducting this scam... finally gave-up oblivious marathon all over Saint-Petersburg, to Western Union's -I did it to as an lesson...
