Scammmer Popescu Beatrice from Romania (financial support scam)

I met Beatrice Popescu in April of 2002. We started our correspondence gradually. She soon started complaining about having to go to the Internet Café because she couldn’t afford a computer for home and would always be telling me how poor she was and that only a privileged few people in Romania actually had paying jobs. In time, she gradually escalated her expressions of affection for me and I really believed that she was sincere.

By November of that year, we seemed to be committed to each other. By this time, we had agreed that she would come to the US and that we would marry. From this basis, She requested and I assumed responsibility for her finances. At first just for some things, but as time went on, for everything.

Also at this time, Beatrice deactivated her Cherry Blossoms profile to prove her commintment to me. I did not know until much later that, she simultainiously created a alias profile and maintained this alias profile throughout the entire duration of our relationship.

She first requested money from me in Nov ’03 for $240. It was for a passport so that she could go to Bulgaria with her mother.

After that, she requested money for a trip to Paris. Then she made a request for money for Internet service so that she could write me from home. I have also included a Western union receipt as well as the letter requesting this.

It didn’t seem like to great of a financial sacrifice being as she loved me and that she would someday be my wife. Of course, I only sent her money because I believed what she told me, that she loved me and that she would come to America and we would soon be married.

It was in June of 2003 that she says that she graduated from the Bucharest University and needed my complete support and expected me to send her money every month until we could arrange for her Fiance VISA and we would get married. It was unknown to me at the time that, as of Nov '02, Beatrice was simultaneously maintaining a profile at the Mail Bride site called Cherry Blossoms.

She said that if I loved her, and that if I wanted her to come to America and be my wife, that I would do this for her. I ended up not only sending her money for her monthly bills, but also taking care of her dental and doctor bills.

We communicate on a day-to-day basis on our plans for marriage and a life together in America either over the phone, or thru the Internet.

May 2004, she told me that she had an apprenticeship for a Belgian owned Company, and that even though she was working 8 to 10 hours a day Monday thru Friday, that she was never paid. She never told me the name of this company.

In 2004, I arranged to go to Bucharest to meet her. I told her that this meeting was not only so that we could prove our meeting for the Fiancé Visa requirement, but also to see if we where compatible in our being together. We stayed together from 29 Sept till 4 Oct. There in Bucharest, I proposed to her and she said she would be my wife.

Back in America, in January, I found a good Immigration lawyer and started getting all the paperwork ready for her VISA process. I also moved to a larger apartment that would accommodate the both of us.

In February of 2005, I sent her the paperwork she needed to fill out, along with instructions. In May, she still had not completed the paperwork. The second week of May, I told her that I wanted the paperwork to be sent to me by end of May or that I would think that she was not serious, and she promised me that I would have it by then.

That month of May, she also requested an additional $100 on top of the usual $400 that I sent every month. (I send you an Email attachment for the Western Union receipt for this as well as the letter requesting it).

Up until this time, everything seemed normal in our relationship except that she was taking so long for the paperwork. She still expressed her love for me threw the Emails and the phone conversations we had as well as her desire to come to the US and be my wife. I sent her the $500 and that was it. From that moment from when she received that $500, she has not answered any of my phone calls or written me any letters.

I went onto the Cherry Blossoms Bride site where we initially met and entered a search for Romanian Woman aged 26 thru 28. There I found her profile using an alias as “Sara” (I have included a scan of this page titled “CB Profile - Beatrice ‘Sara’ Popescu).

The page says that she started the profile in November of 2002, which means that she created the profile at the very moment when I began sending money to her. It also means that she ran the profile during the whole time of our relationship. Second, the profile says that she updated the profile in June of 2004, which was only four months before I came to be with her in Bucharest. And last, the profile says that she last visited the site in January of 2005. At the very least, she was actively seeking contact with other men the entire time that I was supporting her.

From this information, it is clear that she never intended to come to the US to be my wife, that she purposely deceived me in order to have an income of over $400 per month, and that when it came time for her to complete the Fiancé VISA paperwork, that she cut off contact with me. Professional investigators might better determine what the reality of this situation is. There is one thing I am sure of: Beatrice does not have a paying job and she would not have ended our relationship if she didn’t have another man sending her money. I am also sure that I would never have sent her any money, unless she had let me know unequivocally that she intended to come to America and be my wife.
