Reports :

I am a 45 yr old, single father from Columbus, Georgia in the United States. I was first contacted by this heartless, evil thief in the personals page of Yahoo.com and I, like so many others, was noticing oddities about my email's. She contacted me and said she was looking to talk with Americans and wanted me to answer back, which I promptly did. Since that day, I have seen the same letter format to other men, with only the name of the addressee changed and some different letters, obviously, in response to a question that was pushed enough for her/he/it to have to respond back outside of the pattern. There was two different occasions where I got the same letter, one behind the other. There was several occassions where I received email's that were totally out of context to letters that I had sent to her and when I pinned her down about it, then I got real responses. She was always very convincing, whenever, I questioned whether she was telling the truth or not. She was beautiful and pleasant and I guess that I just wanted to believe that when things looked questionable , that she was just a good person in a bad situation. Unfortunately, I had not found your website until after the damage was done. To make a long story short, I sent money for her flight to Russia, her medical exam, her visa, and her stay in Moscow while she waited for the money for her airfare. I had contacted lawyers, who had described the ordeal that a single woman has to go through to get a tourist visa, yet Lyudmila got one and the only thing that she had to do was show the woman at the american consulate that she could show the money for a two-way ticket and her Visa would get approved. I sent the money and I did not hear from her all that week. Western Union notified me that the money had been picked up, but it had been picked up in Yoshkar Ola, not in Samara. I got suspicious and did a search on Yoshkar Ola, found a site for Internet Dating Scams, and that is when I found www.womenrussia.com and the blacklist archives. I did a search under her name, but that day, it did not get a match. So the next day, I started looking by photo's and she appeared. I will not provide the letters at this time, because if you click on her name for the other men that were scammed, you will see if your letter is the same as those already sent. But, I will go one step further, and list names of individuals using the same home address, exact letter formats,etc... Elena Belova from Samara used the same home address as Lyudmila Konstantinova. Inna Konstantinova has a different photo, same exact letter format, and the email address kon_inna@list.ru; Lyudmila used the address friendly_kon@list.ru. Lyudmila wrote to another man from the U.S. using the same name but the email address for him was friendly_ks@list.ru. Yulia Redkina from Samara has a different picture, the same exact letter format, and her email address is kolyanred@list.ru but the home address that she used was different from Lyudmila. It was as follow: Yulia Redkina. 17 Sadovaya,46. Samara, 443001. These are the pictures of the Lyudmila that I fell in love with. I suspect that the Inna Konstantinova that is listed earlier as an earlier scammer is the real scammer and this is a beautiful woman whose pictures were taken and used. If you can find who this woman really is, and she is found innocent of any wrongdoing, if she is single and looking for an american husband, you can pass my address on to her. Ron.
