Scammer details

Report N1
Beginning early last week, I was contacted out of the blue by a woman using the name of Tanya (she also says she goes by Tatyana). I was immediately suspicious, so I began saving the e-mails with full message headers and tracing them back to their origin. In the third e-mail, she
said where she supposedly works at, a sports bar by the name of "Sport Mooring". I did a search on Google for that name, and I found information about another scammer who used the same e-mails as the woman who is writing me -- the person shown in the photos is a different person. I have reported this person to
two other scammer sites as well as the FBI. The person does not know that I am on to their scheme and I am trying to get aditional information (last name, mailing address, etc.). As soon as I have more info I will be more
than happy to pass it along.

We wrote for several months, and she didn't ask for money until she supposedly got to Moscow and found out that she needed an additional 00 cash to show at the embassy, to ensure that she'd have money to live on. Then her parents sent her 0 from their savings so she asked for 0 from me. Told her I simply didn't have it. She got mad and said "Farewell!"
