Hi My name is Steve from melbourne Australia..I recently received an R.S.V.P. email from a girl (supposedly) living in Yoshkar-Ola in Russia.I'm 48 yrs old ,separated with 3 kids.We corresponded for 2 weeks each time exchanging photo's.Her emails were very emotional and lots of hints of getting together and having a family.The first thing I asked her was why would an attractive girl like you want with an older person like me.The line she gave me was that all Russian men were alcholics and insincere.The irony was every one of her emails was about has she hated people lying and being insincere and that was exactly what she was doing herself.To make should I knew the person sending the emails was the person in the photo I got her to take a photo of her holding a message so I knew it was her.She sent a picture of herself holding a sign saying "Hi my love Steve 26 Apr 2006 " which was very convincing.I still don't know whether the girl in the pictures was actually writing the emails or whether she was just supplying the photo's.I visited the various sites regarding the scamming and sent her a copy of the links to get her reaction.She wrote back condemning the scammers and saying how she couldn't understand how people could do such a thing.The second last email I sent her I said for her to find out the cost of her getting to Australia and I would do the same.She eagerly replied that she would.Then by good luck and good fortune on my part I was reading through the emails on your site when I found the almost word for word email from an "Olga".I wrote to Sofiya with a copy of the email and asked her to explain how two emails could be written by 2 different people almost word for word.Needless to say she never replied to my last email which confirmed my suspicion that she was a scammer.Luckily for me no money changed hands.Here are some of the emails and Photo's.
