My name is Bill, and I live in West Central Florida, I am 39, single and caucasion. I am American and a Floridian native who works for a local Govermental agency. Well here is my story on how I almost got scammed by someone from over there. Where exactly I do not know, except that when I was asked to send $300 to a particular Western Union address in order for a nice looking Russian female to visit with
me for 2 or 3 weeks at my house for her vacation. Basically the search engine Google helped me very much in finding out about this attempted scam, and this web site. Why? Because I became suspicious when all of a sudden Oksana needed $300 in a few days to a Western Union address. I called the Western Union toll free International sales help, and asked how much it would cost me to send this ammount of money. When she told me that this
address for a Western Union did not exist, I was alerted, and asked her to check 3 times, and to check her home town for a likeness to this address. The name was Oksana Kabanova 72 Mira St. Apt 113 / Yoshkar-Ola / Russia republic Mari El. I then became very suspicious, and did a search on the search engine Google for this address, and it led me right to this black list web site with a story of a man who had been scammed for a large
ammount of money from a different name at this exact address.
It started out like this for me. I have been a member of asiafriendfinder.com for several months and on May 15, 2002 oksana111 sent me an email thru asiafrienfinder that was forwarded to my regular email. It stated this from her:
"Hi, I have seen the announcements on AsiaFriendfinder.com and I liked your structure very much! You have seemed to me as the good man. my name is Oksana. I am 27 years old. My growth of 173 centimeters. My weight 56 kg. I like children and animals. I am interested in reading books and going in for sport. I have the romantic character. I want to find the happiness!!! If you think me the person
you like, look through for my structure I hope a lot for the answer in a short time. I am waiting for your letter, Oksana. My email address is eva20023@yandex.ru
Hi, my name is Oksana. I live in Russia. i work as a tutor in a children's day nursery. I love children and animals very much. i want to get acquainted with the man, who will be a support in my life. I am 27 years old. I agree to get acquainted with a man from 30 or older. For me age is not the main thing. The main thing is that there is love and mutual understanding!"
Well, I thought that was odd finding a russian lady on an asian site, so I figured what the heck, I did not check my mail until several days after she had originally sent the message. I then emailed her thanking her for writing me, and just striking up a general feel-out conversation letter to her. She then sent out an email to me the next day, with a little information about her work with children, a
cat named Cuzy that could dance to her music as she played a piano. Her music was not my type, but she said she liked Bah, Shopen, Mozart. Her favorite food was sea products. She said she was also a good cooker. Ske liked to walk in the woods in the summer, yet relax on the sofa in the Winter reading romantic books or knitting. She said that she also liked to jog and watch the olympics. She again stated her area of residence about 850
km east of Moskow. Then she says her mother greets me, and she has learned how to cook very well, and "if we were together you would be amazed at my cooking skills". Okay there were a couple of more regular emails from her, then on about the 3rd email she started in hard for me. She states that she had the day off, was walking in a park eating ice-cream admiring the weather.....then..... "I very much would like
that you were near to me". I want to (find out) you closer."...."You have girlfriend?"......Then......."You would like the Russian wife?". She finishes this email with i wait with impatience of your answer!!! Also in this email she includes some very revealing shots of her chest thru a type of swim suit and another picture of her in a swimsuit. I admit these pictures caught my attention, and I was
thinking about what would make her move so fast on someone she does not even know very well. I could have been a killer, yet she did not seem to really want to find out more about me. So this threw up a little warning flag, yet the pictures distracted me enough to continue on with curiousity. Next days email starts off on a speel about trust, and her daily routine, and she makes a feeble attempt at trying to act like she is not
able to convey her ideas and messages now through the computer to me. She ends the email with...."I think I'll have a ability to arrive to you soon if i have vacation". Well, I thought how nice, I just have to see where she thinks she is going to stay, her arrival time, and if she visits me, I was flat out with her, and that she was going to be giving it up, if you know what I mean...Ha! That is when I almost
overnighted an HIV test kit to my house. Glad i did not waste that cash either. In this email she sends a very nice picture of a lady in a dress that appears to be the same person, yet damn near a drop dead model. Next day the email starts off.
"Lovely I have received your letter. I shall try and explain once again that that you has not understood. In two weeks I shall have vacation at work. I can arrive for you for two or three weeks. You want to meet me??? I have found the transport company (firm) which will make out my documents the visa and passport. The documents will be made out 10 days. it is good??? On Monday (6/3/02) I want to
go to in the transport company and to learn (find out) about the cost of the documents. I very much want to meet you and to be with you. To embrace your strong body. You the very beautiful man. I want to be with you. I hope that you all will understand and will be like my offer!!! With all my love, forever your Oksana."
Now this, I was starting to think was weird, and way too fast, but I still somehow wanted to see how she was going to play her game. I wrote her back and asked for all kinds of detailed information. Which day? Where are you landing? And some other questions. Then for the hell of it, I noticed I had a special email for me at asiafriendfinder.com again. Guess who it was? Well, this time it said:
"Hi! I-Nadya from Russia, I 30, 170cm, 60 kg. I search for the man, participation in my life. I would like to joing my life with cautious, unbiased. The useful, loyal man, i want to have have love, happy family. I very seriously treat my intention to find out Mine soulmate also marry. If you feel same, please answer me, and I shall send My photo. Mine address : Nadya-11@yandex.ru."
But at the top the name came fromoksana111, so another red flag, as this i knew now was a scam. Now the final letter from her led me to really invesigate her as best that i could. 6/3/02 She writes:
"How are you today? I am very glad to read your mail.I with each day think of you ever more. Than more i shall learn (find out, recognize) you, the it is more i fall in love with you.You seem to me by the very kind and good man. At you perfect soul.....I so would like much to you tell, but all feelings through the computer will not write. i very much hope that we can soon be seen!!! I soon arrive
to you for two or three weeks. it will be where at the end of June. We can learn (find out) closer each other and decide (solve) our destiny together. i am very lonely now and want to find the companion of my life. You understand me? Today I went in the transport company and has given back my documents on registration of the visa and passport. the registration of the documents will borrow 10-14 days. It is good? Cost of the documentsa
430 $. 130 $ - passport 300 $ - visa. Now at me financial difficulties and I can not pay thr documents. You can to me help with payment of my documents??? it is necessary to me to pay the documents by Friday. You can send me money by Thursday??? The best way is the Western Union. If I give you the address can you send Western Union? I will meet you as soon as possible. I give you the address of my bank where there is a system of
remittances Western union. i give you once again complete name and address for Western union. Oksana Kabanova 72 Mira St. Apt 113 Yoshkar-Ola Russia Republic mari El With love, your the future wife Oksana."
So I could not believe this story, and called to see how much the western union would cost, yet it did not exist at this location. I then searched under Google this address and it led me here to this web site. I wrote back another letter letting her or he know that I take great pleasure in hunting people down who try and screw me, and they shall never know my day of arrival, since now i have located the
location of the area with IP address, and they can expect that someday i am coming over there to teach somebody a lesson permanently. I was almost scammed, but thanks to this web site, I saw that this happens a bunch. I am enclosing the final letter, and all of the pictures that was sent to me, whoever this nice looking woman is, is most likely not this scammer, but some one else.
