Irina Kamaeva/Natalia Arsibekov (Syktyvkar,
Russia)
Hello, My name is Steve from Pennsylvania,
I am in the cable tv industry. This one is a
slick lady now so be careful of her. She uses the name of Irina Kamaeva. Same letters
as the rest of the guys. I originally got an initial contact at
www.matchdoctor.com under the user of Tender_Woman.
I am currently on the letter where she asks for the money for her via and a
plane ticket. I have attached all requested information as asked for by the
blacklist site. Luckily I wanted to know where the hell Syktyvkar, Russia was otheriwse
I would have never found out in time who this lady
was at this site. Steve
  
Olga Viktorovna Vlasova / Ulan-Ude/
Russia
I am a single father of
1, white Australian and 32 years old. This person
first Contacted me from Soulmatesworld.com about 2 weeks ago. After the 2nd
Email she started to talk about Love and relationships, I went along for
the ride to see where it would lead. then she
started saying how she would like to come to Australia to live with me as my
Wife. She stated that she only had US$600 but needed $1950 to get here, the
following day she mentioned how she has this Powerful Aunty that has lent her
US900 to help her get here. she then requested
that I try and find the remaining US$450 to pay for her ticket, and that
her Aunty has arranged the Visa. I'm not stupid I know how Visa's work and
to get an Australian Visa, no powerful Russian Aunt can influence the
Australian Government into giving out Visa's. anyway, I continued to play
along with it while asking crucial questions about her, and her Family, her
work, and about her internet access, she claimed she was in an Internet
Cafe, but when tracing her connection back it came from a dial up account. over the period of time she became very pushy about
getting the money, trying to hurry me up. I have not and will not send
money to this scammer, she deserves to be put in Prison and I will do my
best to help her get there. I will be contacting all the appropriate
authorities and giving them all the Information I can. the
address she was using is 413402 Russia,
Buryatia, Ulan-Ude, Komsomolskaya str. 23 apt. 12 Olga Viktorovna
Vlasova. and you guessed
it she wanted the money sent by Western Union, I mentioned other forms of
payment, but she always came back to the Western Union.
the following are emails sent to me from
her.
Attached is her Photo

rather good biological conditions. And nature is really beatiful.
I have a very friendly family: my mother, father and little sister Tanya. I
love them very much. My father is a lorry driver so drive his big car all
over the huge country and he is at home very seldom. I miss him very much.
My mom is a assistent in
the hospital. As for me I work as a teacher in the school. I teach little
children to different science such as math, russian
language, russian literature, painting and many other. I love children and I love my work. I've finished
Pedagogical University. As for my hobbies I have
a lot of them. I like nature first of all and I like to go to the different
kind of picnics and trips. I enjoy going on kayaks down the mountain
rivers. I like hiking and skiing. I like different kind of sports and I try
to keep my fit. Do you like sport? I like to dance. When I was a teen I
went in for classical dancing. It is really wonderful. I like different
kind of music such as classical, jazz, blues and sometimes folk music. I
would like to tell you a lot of things in one time but they are confused in
my head. Please ask any questions you like to know. And please tell me

P.S. Please excuse
me for my english. I hope we won't have big
problems in our dialogs. I'll try to improve my english
in future and I work on it right now.
My dear Jason. Thank
you very much for your wonderful letter. You know I'm very serious in my
intension. I would like to create a strong and happy family with my loveling man. I couldn't write you a letter by myself, it is too difficult for me. I have a lot things to say you and I don't know what I could
start with. Please ask me what do you want to know about me? I'll ask all
your questions. The beginning is very important when we need to to understand if we are a good match, if we have common
in interests and views on life and decide if we want to develop our
relationship. I just want to continue our correspondents. I don't know why.
I feel again the excitement in my blood that I thought I have forgotten
already. I am afraid to lose my excitement, my admiration of you, I am glad
with your sincerity, ingenuousness and honesty. I appreciate this features of character very much. Your admiration,
compliments, your feelings warm me so much that I am ready to close my eyes
on some misses and weaknesses. I like you very much. I'll be waiting for
your answer soon! And I would like to get your pictures. I like it very
much! Your Olga
Hi my dear Jason!
I'm very glad to receive your letter! I appreciate your honesty very much.
Of course you're right and I would like to have children. I love them very
much. But first of all I'm looking for my match. I'm looking for my man.
Intelligent, tender, kind-hearted and of course honest. That is why I like
you and I see you're a very decent man and I could believe you and rely on
your honesty. I would like to know you better, wouldn't you? I hope yes. So
I'll be waiting for oyur answer. Please tell me
more about yourself. And please ask me any questions you want to know. I'll
answer all of them. I promise I'll be honest with you. Thank you. Your Olga
from Russia
Hi my dear Jason! I
understand your question. I'll try to answer it with all my honesty. I'd like
to answer as we say here in Russia:
if I find my man I'll go after them to the end of the world. Is it
understandable? I hope yes. Another words you I find him in the Antarctic
Continent I'll go there. And now I'll try to answer all of your questions.
As for food I like national russian dishes such
as "pelmeni" and "pirogi". Also I like to cook myself and I hope
you'll have a chance to test it sometime. I don't know how to answer your
question about my favourite clolour.
Actually I have three favourite colours: green, blue and yellow. It depends on my mood
if I try to choose one of them. I think that my favourite
flower is may be white roses. Also I like field flowers. It is very intresting and rather hard to answer your question
about what makes me sad and happy. I'm an optimistical
and cheerful person and a lot of thing can make me happy. Such as sunrise,
first snowfall, smiles of close people and really million and one reaon in this wonderful world! What about sadness I
think that may be deceit, insincerity, death of the close people or
something else unpleasant And you know I would like to know your opinion on
the same question. What is your attitude to the life? I would like to know
all about you my dear Jason! Please write me soon! I'll be waiting for your
answer with great impatience! With love from Russia your Olga
Hi my darling! Dear
Jason! I miss you very much my love! Please excuse me for the silence! I
was in the village visiting my grandparents. I've told them about you my
love and they are very happy for us and wishing us such happy life as they
had. They are really happy now. They were together for 40 years and they
really love each other now! What about the visa I think that I'll not have
any problems with getting it because my aunt in Moscow have a great influence and
powerful friends. She'll help me to come to Australia to you my love! As
for the money I don't know what is the best way to wire
the money: all money in one time or part by part. Anyway you could
send it. Here is my full data: 413402 Russia,
Buryatia, Ulan-Ude, Komsomolskaya str. 23 apt. 12 Olga Viktorovna
Vlasova. I don't know for sure if it is all the
information you'll be need in. If you need anything else please ask it.
I'll answer you as soon as I could. My love! I miss you very much and if
only I could be with you this moment! Kiss you! With love from Russia your
Olga
Jason, I'm so sorry
but I have no possibility to install any programs on the computer. Internet
cafe had some troubles yesterday(all their systems
have been crushed). So this time we could communicate only with e-mails. As
for the visa i could get it in two days. I began
to get it 2 weeks ago and now it is ready to receive. But I have to go to
the Moscow
to receive it and then to fly to you my love. I should be sure that I'll be
able to buy ticket in Moscow to come to you
because I couldn't stay in Moscow
for long period of time. I hope you understand me my darling? So if you're
ready to send me the rest of the money I need to buy the ticket I'll fly to
Moscow tomorrow
and in 2-3 days I'll be with you my loev! I
couldn't believe that it is true! It is my greatest wish!
My love! Thank you
very much for your wonderful letter. Could you tell me the exact date
you'll send me the money? I think I could stay with my aunt for a week or
so. Is it possible to wire money in a week? Everytday
without you makes me very sad! And only one thing I wish best of all for
now. I wish to be with you my darling! I could come to you as soon as
you'll help me. Love you! Kiss you! Your bride Olga

I am a single 49 y/o mail from upstate NY. I met this lady on
MatchDoctor.com. who clamed her name was Tanya.
She used the profile Fatewithyou67258. It only took two letters before she
started asking for money. After the second letter, I told her that I was
always cautious about sending any money and that I always check the scam
list on the internet. Never heard from her again.

Hello my Dear
Friend! I'm very glad that among many ads you chose just mine! That you are interested in me Jim! I'm 28 years
. I'm 170 cm in height. My weight is 53 kg. My small Angel is 2.5 years and his name is Nikita. Now I
really live only by hope. Though many years I suffered from
loneliness, I know that I'll find my wayout. Only Love can give peacefulness and joy.
I do not look for pen- pal. I dream and family coziness. Honey, I
want to share all kindness I have in my
soul. I want to find my Only One and to be the only
for him. In this uneasy and at once nice life we so much need the
one who will believe in us and the main
thing is to understand. To create own unique world without unsincere and empty - what can be more important? My family life unfortunately
isn't happy, my Nice Jim. But I have nice child. Since I stayed lonely,
much in life turned to me the other way. I
learned to value simple human joys and
stopped to take hurting trifles close to me. I look at future with hope
for you, Nice. Surely it's very hard to be lonely. But I can't feel
despair for my child's sake. The most happy time
for me is when I spend it with my child. On the whole I
like children. And they love me too as I can see. So I
value my work much. I work as a tutor of children in kindergarten. I like my job very much and each day come to work
with pleasure. I'll tell of my work in
details in my next letter Jim. I wait for your letters. Send me please you
photos my Dear! I want to look at your eyes! I kiss you All the best.

Hello my Dear Jim!
I'm so glad that you have received my letter. Thank you very much Darling
for the chance you give to me, chance to love and be loved and for the hope you put into my heart. I read a little bit
more about you, Jim, with a great interest. It seems for us both it wasn't
always so as we wanted. But now we have each other and we both can value
the most important things in life. Love and
simple human happiness. Thanks for your picture. But, unfortunately I
can't open it. So, it will be really pleasure for me, if you try to send it
one more time. About your question about children. Now it's very hard for
me to grow up the child by myself. And I just don't think to have many of
them. Of course I like children very much.
But I'm sure all decisions must be taken together in a really happy,
friendly, and loving family. And no matter what the decision is, it'll
always be common, desired and thought out. I
want to tell you of my job. It's my second family .
As the Love of these small Angels is so real and doesn't demand anything .I like to walk and play different games
with them. I seem to find myself in another
dimension. They have their own world - bright, joy and kind. It's
filled with loud child's laughter . I'm
grateful to them without limit that they took me to them and let to be the part of their world. Jim, I'll tell you a
little bit about my city. It's called Kremenchug. The city is
industrial. But not looking at this the city is beautiful. There are a lot
of parks here. We with my angel especially like to
go to the river. The Dnieper
river flaws through our city. When it's warm outside we can stay for a long time and admire how it's waves clamor. There
is a lake not far from our house. In winter when
it's frozen a lot of children go there to skate. In summer when the
water in it is warm a lot of people come to swim and get brown or just have
good rest. We with Nikita also like to go to the lake. But sometimes
I feel very sad that during our walking with him alone I see a lot of
parents play with their children. And I know
that Nikita will lack man's father's attention with time. And if honestly I'm afraid very much of the time when hi would
ask me why hi doesn't have father and I would have nothing to say. But now
when you my Sweetheart appeared in my life I believe that everything will
change and I will never hear the answer from my Angel and we'll be the
happiest family in the world. Will we? It's very hard for me as I
can't be always with my Child as I have to work much. Dear Jim! I value
your letters very high. I want to continue our correspondence as I see much
in common. It's very inconvenient to ask you of it but I do not have other
choice. I'll be very grateful to you can help me with paying our
correspondence. I didn't get my salary for 3 months and live only on my
additional work. I can't pay for Internet-cafe services. I have to pay for
translator, for number of incoming and coming letters and
for hiring the box. All it is extremely expensive for me. If my
letters are necessary for you as well as yours for me and if you value our
association, I hope you'll not deny me in help. In my next letters I
want to send you more of my with Nikita photos,
tell you of my life and to know of yours, Jim. I wait for your letters
impatiently Say "Hello" from us to your children. You must be
proud with them. I hope we'll become friends. With Love to you Tanya PS
Nikita kisses you too.

Wind Of Love Agency / Olga (Olenka) Kurchinskaya
I started writing with Olenka Kurchinskaya
having initially made contact via a free dating site, her initial letter to
me was so interesting and well written I found myself interested by her.
Her letter came from 'Wind Of love' agency in Kiev however at this stage there was
nothing to arouse my suspicions although each letter would finish with the
following:
This message was
translated and forwarded to you by Wind of Love
Travel Company.Please visit us at
www.windoflove.com to know more about Translation Services and
Flowers/Gifts Delivery. We also specialize
on all travel services in Ukraine.
Olenka's 2nd letter arrived, whilst she
wasn't asking for money she did say:
And the last thing
for this letter. I think you should know that
my letters are translated to you. Though I've got the
University degree it's in economics. I didn't pay much attention on languages at school or University. I
never thought I'd need it. As I don't know
English I found the agency that helps me with
translation for some payment.
Olenka's 3rd letter included the
following lines, why should she say such a thing? I hadn't said anything in
my letters to prompt such a statement:
I feel that I'm
getting used to your letters more and more, that is why it is important to
me that you realize that I do exist, I'm real.
We exchanged 4th
letters, Olenka still seemed amazingly
interesting, saying the right things in her letters, telling me about her
life, interests etc. Being constantly reminded by the agency I had visited
www.windoflove.com and for as little as $20 I could assist with
correspondence, $20 would cover the expense of 8 letters (4 each), I could
afford to lose $20.00 so I decided to show a gentlemanly gesture. By now we
had been writing for some weeks, letters continued however I was becoming
more and more suspicious these letters were 'canned' with a few lines added
to each to personalise them. My questions were
now going unanswered despite reminders and in her letters Olenka would write excessively about something
relatively trivial such as a movie she had seen, this is just an example,
each of her letters now would include such 'canned' writings:
I also remembered
the movie that impressed me a lot recently.
The movie is called "Unfaithful" .Richard Gere
is starring in it. Well, I love the movie
"Pretty woman", but Richard Gere wasn't really the reason for my decision to
watch the "Unfaithful". :-) The advertisement as well as the name
describes the plot of it a little bit. And I like to
watch love stories, melodramas. So we decided to go to see it with Sveta, one of my girlfriends. If you don't mind I'd like to write you a little bit about it.There is a happy American family. There are three of
them: a father, a mother and their nine-year
old son. They live in one of the suburbs of New York city. As for a couple, they love
each other and seem to form a successful marriage and
family. It's their regular day, they have breakfast, make jokes at each other. Father (Richard Gere) goes to work, son goes
to school and mother who is a housewife needs to do some shopping.
It's very windy outside. She goes to Manhatten and while she walks along the street
in the search of a taxi she ran into a young man. They both fell
down, she hurt herself, and went up to his
apartment to get some help with her injured knee. He turned out to be
a book-seller, a very attractive one. At
first, this meeting didn't mean anything to
her. But then she realized that she was attracted
to this man (whose name is Paul) more and more. They became lovers.
Finally her husband found out about that. He
more felt that than found proofs of her
unfaithfulness. He met the lover of his wife and killed him.
You know, dear Martin, now when I try to describe this movie to you, it's really hard to explain everything.
The problem is much deeper than it seems to
be. And the creators of the movie have made
a great job to show the feelings of those three people. While
watching you can't really say who is guilty. Well, the woman is because she
is the one to cheat. But she does love her husband,
they don't have problems in bed. And this another one…he is a fresh breeze
in her life, who drives her crazy, who makes her suffer because she is not
kind of a person who can cheat and pretend. That is why
her husband has figured out that she was unfaithful, and also
because he loves her and he knows just everything about her, and, of
course, he notices that she is not the same any more. I'm not saying
that it was right of her to cheat, and of him to kill her lover, but what
they did just destroyed their life forever. Police didn't arrest him, as he
cleaned everything and didn't leave any proofs and the end of the movie is they sit in the car with their son and
decide what they should do. Their life is supposedly going on after
everything that have happened but it's only an
image of a happy life but not the life itself. Even if they leave the country, change the names as they plan in the end
I'm sure they won't be able to continue their regular life, and the day
when he goes to the police and tells everything will come soon. They
say "I love you", they really mean it, but their love is
fulfilled with despair and grieve.
I was becoming more and
more suspicious with each letter and after an exchange of 9 letters over a
6 week period they eventually 'slipped up' sending a letter to me that was
intended for another man. This letter was dated 16 October however it was
the same letter that was sent to me on 24 September. Furthermore, the agency
had written to me asking for more money, I wrote a short but polite note to
Olenka:
Hello Olenka, I think either yourself or your agency have
made a mistake ! This (attached) letter
received by me last evening was addressed to
someone named 'Mike'. The letter is familiar to me though
because you wrote this very same letter to me on 24 September. I'm
very sorry Olenka, I was hoping to meet a serious
lady ! A short while later I received the
following response, e-mail addresses have been 'doctored' to protect
identity, I would have thought a more apologetic response would have been
appropriate to a customer, obviously disappointed to have recently learnt
his lady was writing to other men:
Hello M xxxxxxx <xxxxxx@yahoo.com> or yyyyyy@hotmail.com
or whatever - you lost the girl who was
sincerely interested in you.
Please bear in mind
that my letter was addressed to Olenka, as Wind
Of Love were to subsequently state they merely translate and forward. If
this were the case they should have forwarded my letter to Olenka, who are they to involve themselves in the
personal communications of 2 of their customers? Why should I have lost the
girl? Who are Wind of Love to decide on Olenka's behalf that I have lost her? They didn't
translate and forward, they reacted to it, they do not just merely
translate and forward, they write letters also:
Dear Sir, if you
have the problem with the lady, if does not
mean that the agency did something wrong - we has been doing our work
, people pay us for - translation and forwarding of the
letters. They subsequently tried to explain:
If necessary we can
scan all the letters from Olenka to you and send them to you - so you will see that
she wrote all her letters to you.
However these duplicate
letters include the same typing discrepancies, punctuations, the same
everything, it is clear they are stored on computer with lines added to personalise or answer question(s), Olenka
had told me she didn't have a computer thus it can only be the agency's
computer, examples: Martin, there is one more thing I wanted to
write to you. I like our correspondence a lot, I feel that I'm
getting used to your letters more and more, that is why it's
important to me that you realize that I do exist, I'm real. I care
about learning more about you, knowing you better, and I want everything is to be clear between us. May be I'm
too straight but I've mentioned that I
appreciate honesty a lot. Please, if you have any doubts, share them
with me. I will be sending you my pictures, not only the ones made in
the studio (by the way, today I send you a picture of me with my
girlfriends that was taken several months ago when we celebrated the
birthday of one of them). And I wanted to thank you for sending me your
picture. I get all your letters but if you
want to make sure you may write my name in the subject. As for English, I
don't speak any and I totally agree with you and know that it's necessary
for me to start learning it. I was thinking about that myself. I did check
the prices, and unfortunately right now I can't afford paying for the classes. I hope to meet your
understanding and patience. I do care about our correspondence and it
inspires me a lot to start studying and I will as soon as it's possible.
Let me send you a small butterfly kiss with this letter…Let's
see how good the internet is in transmitting kisses. :-) With growing
affection, Olenka
And:
Mike, there is one
more thing I wanted to write to you. I like our correspondence a lot, I
feel that I'm getting used to your letters more and more, that is why it's
important to me that you realize that I do exist, I'm real. I care about
learning more about you, knowing you better, and I want everything is to be

There is absolutely no
doubt 'Wind Of Love' are persuading men to pay for the translation etc. of
these 'canned' letters that are already stored on their computer in
English. Wind Of Love advertises their offices in several Ukrainian cities,
their site offers no address for their Kiev office yet invites you to visit them
in person:
Still have
questions? Wind of Love Travel Company encourages you to call us at working
hours Monday - Saturday. And of course, you are welcome to visit us in
person when you are in Ukraine.
Furthermore and bearing in mind they are closed on Sunday I still have no
explanation regarding the following e-mail received (note the transmission
date and time):
Date:Sun, 06 Oct 2002 22:08:02 +0300
To:xxxxxx@yahoo.com
From:"Wind of Love"
<kiev@windoflove.com
I wonder how many other men may be paying Wind Of Love for correspondence
to ladies such as Olenka? Martin
