To Whom it May Concern,
I was looking through your scam list and found a lady by the name of Elena from Astrakhan, Russia. She tried to scam me recently and I found one of the pictures she sent me in the group of pictures sent to David. As you read the letters I have attached you will notice a different web site and city, a different birthday and eye color. She also tried to get me to send her $300 USD for a visa to come to America but I would not help her. Please include these letters and pictures into your investigation of her. Here is the information she gave me about herself. Elena Ushakova, nickname Vnisy, address Sovtskya street 15, village Kosino, Domodedovo region, Moscow oblast 142060, email vnisy@yahoo.com 

She was very controlling and manipulative and I was aware that she might be a scammer from her first letter. I did not want to judge her from the first letter but my concerns were made correct with her last letters. So please include this information in your files about her. I did not fall for her scam and do not want anyone else to either.

Sincerely,

Albert (Billy)  pra4nda@stjoelive.com

Hello, my friend.

I thank you for your letter and your interest in me. Billy, it is
interesting to read about you and your life. 
I want to know more about you. Please, tell me about your family,
friends and people that you know. What is your usual day? I will also
tell you what you want to know about me. 

I have good time to correspond with you. I enjoy it. I can say it is
becoming one of my favourite things. I don't remember if I told you
about my hobbies or things I like to do for fun. It seems to me that
people who wants to have some relationship must have the same ideas
and goals in life and also the same ways for rest and fun.
I like different activities like sport, walking, going-out and
outdoors. I can't say that I am engaged in sport. I just like it. I
like bicycle-riding, swiming and beach especially. Also I like to
dance. I dance classic and modern dances. I am an amateur not a
professional. I think the real woman should be beautiful both soul and
body. My mother teached me to play piano. I also can sing. I will try
to learn some english songs. Hope you can hear them someday. 
Smile. 

I enjoy cooking. I prefer italian and russian food. My favourite
dishes are different soups and salads. I cook great Ukrainian borsch. 
It is a soup made of beet, meat, cabbage and carrot. Very tasty. Smile. 

As I said I like reading. I read different books, but prefer books
about history and countries. I read a lot of Russia and America. These
countries are great. 

As for fun, I like the same thing like all people. Movie, walking,
theatre. I like to drink tea with friends in cafe. We talked about
everything and nothing. Smile. I don't have a lot of friends, but all
they are good people. To be honest I don't like 'empty' people. My
friends are almost my old friends from childhood and youth. They are
already almost married. Don't think that I am close person. I like to
meet new people and make friends. I am easy-going and I easily strike
up new acquaintance. From another side I am not easy approachable
woman. I am serious. I think it is from my upbringing. 

Billy, I don't remember if I told you about my family. I live
alone. My mom died about two years ago. And I have never seen my
father. I am alone baby at my family. The most close person now is my
uncle, my mother's brother. He lives with his family, but I am not
close to them. His wife thinks my uncle is my lover. Actually we just
friends. I think he is like father for me. Silly woman, she can't the
friendship between man and woman. I am not angry at her. I am just
sorry she is so narrow-minded. 
My mother was a scientist. She was full professor at college. She was
on the historical faculty.

From my birth my mother wanted me to become a scientist too. But I
didn't. I had enough strict upbringing. I had been not allowed to date
with boys until I got 20 years old. My mother was old-fashion person.
Probably it is not bad. I loved my mother and respect her. She could
give me good upbringing. We didn't have any conflicts. I always try to
understand her. She loved me too and just wanted me to be happy. It
was the most hard time in my life when he died. I thank my uncle, he
was with me and supported me. 

I talked with my uncle about you. Are you surprised? We often had
confiding talking. He understands me in full. I said him that I meet a
man on dating service in Internet. And that this man is from another
country. Uncle said that it is great. I asked him what he thinks if I
would like to visit this country and maybe to move there. He said that
it is OK, if I feel I want it. I am glad with this. 

Well, hope it is not boring to read. Smile. You see sometimes man must
sit and think about his life and about what he is and what he wants.
It seems to me that I have this time now. 

What I want? Simple things. Happiness, family, careful husband. I put
spiritual life to the first, not material things. I am not looking for
better life or getting rich. I am looking for full life. Why I can't
find husband here in Russia? I can, but I don't want. I see how my
mother lived, I see how other people live in Russia. Yes, here is bad
economics and I don't want to live here. I love my Motherland but I
don't like the State. I want to have comfortable life and don't always
be in searching good job and better salary. I want to dedicate my life
to my husband and my family. I don't want to say that I am lazy. I
like to work, but I don't want to dedicate my life to my work. I hope
you understand what I am talking about. 

I see that many russian women try to go out from Russia looking for
better life. They mary to foreigners to get citizenship of another
state. Then they divorce. I don't like them. I believe in marriage for
life. I want to marry for love. 
Billy, I want you to understand me in full, until we will make some
any steps.

Tell me what you think about this all and what else you would like to
know. Well, this letter seems to be long, so I will close.
Until next time.

Yours Vnisy.

Hello Billy.

Thank you for your writing. It really brights my days. Don't think
that is just words. I always mean what I say... Or at least I try to.
Smile. 

Billy I can't still believe you are so far from me. Yes, I
understand it but can't imagine it. It seems to me we are old friends
and you just live next city. Yes, computer and Internet are like a
window to the world. It is fantastic. 

You know our acquaintance made me to think a little differently about
people living in the world. Good change. Of course I knew about other
countries and people but before it was like an idea, that I saw on TV,
read in books and newspapers. But now I can feel it. Understand me
please, I have just touched to different culture, life and people
through you. And I saw it is real. Billy I am a person that doesn't
believe until he touchs. Smile. I realize you are the same person as I
am. We speak different languages, live in the different countries but
we want the same things in our lifes. I feel that I am a part of
something very huge and important. Thank you for giving me this
feeling. Now I want to travel all over the world, to meet new people
and to get new experience. I really think it is great fun and useful.
What do you think? I actually may look naive but this is what I think.
Smile. 

Yesterday I met my friends. We usually meet at someone's home or go to
our favourite cafe. This is pretty nice place. It is small and very
cosy. They don't sell alcohol there so it is not very popular. It
seems stange? I am not sure you know but usually russians drink a lot.
So it is always loudly where alcohol is on sale. My friends don't like
to drink too as I do. They are almost my old friends from university
or childhood, and a girl from my work. We talk, drink tea, joke, have
fun. Very nice people. I live them all. 
It's a pitty we can't meet often but time or too in month. They almost
are married and have family and children so they are constantly busy.
Well the matter is that I told them about you. They were really happy
for me. They already asked when I come to you. Smile. I explained we
are just friends but they still bantered me all evening. They say
hello to you.

Billy I've just realized you don't know my full name. I want you
know. My full name is Elena Ushakova. I know I would must said it
before. I am sorry for I used my nick name. You may call me any way
you like. 
Also I want to give you my postal address.
It is Sovetskaya street 15, Village Kosino, Domodedov region, Moscow
oblast 142060. 
I want you know it just in case I can't write you an email. Please,
don't send any presents to me. I would feel very uncomfortable to
accept it if I would get them. Our postal system is very unreliable
and I don't want you waste your money. Billy also give me your 
postal address, in case if I don't email you, I may send you some card
to let you know I am ok. 

Well I must already go home. I will continue next time.

Elena (or Lena for short)

p.s. Billy I really glad you wrote to me. Smile.
Keep writing.

Hello Billy.

How are you? I am fine.

I am sorry for my silence. We had some troubles at my work and I had
to do some extra work. Now all things are done and I can visit
Internet club. By the way I knew that internet club works on Saturday
and Sunday also. I think I will write you on any days on week.

Don't think I forgot about you. Smile. No, I think of you often. I am
very interesting to know you more and I like that we can talk via
email. Is it OK for you that I can't write you everyday or regularly?
I will try to write as often as I can. 

To be honest I am a little nervous. Billy, you may ask why I feel a
little nervous. I am a little scared about having new serious
relationship, particularly, a relationship with you, because I want a
relationship with you to work out. I want it to happen, to mature, and
excel. 
Another reason I am nervous is because a serious relationship is a big
step. A big step for both of us. And, lastly, I am nervous of the
possibility that you will say something like "Elena, you are a great
friend, and I think we should keep things that way". I think I want
more. It is based on what you have written me, what you have told me
of you, and what you have told me of your thoughts, life and so on.
I think that I really want to develop our relationship.
I know it may be premature for me to think this way. But I do because
I feel this way. 

Last days I thought about you a lot and I thought about us. I thought
may it be possible for us to meet each other one day. I thought how
real is Internet. How we can learn each other thought it. Really it
seems to me that there is no difference what way we communicate. The
important thing is that we can learn each other and to have image of
our character in our minds. And it is great. 

Thank you for picture and nice card. I enjoy it. You look nice.

Well, I must go now. I will write again soon.

Yours Elena.

P.S. The attached file is the photo from Turkey. I visit Turkey at
last summer.

Hello, Billy.

I am very pleased to get your reply. Thank you for your letter. 
I'd like to know more about you and your life.

I am sorry for such long delay in my responding. I use Internet at my
work and we had some troubles with local network and there was no
Internet connection. Now it works and I hope we'll continue our
talking. 

Well, I will tell a little about myself.

I live in Kosino. It is small village. The population of our place is
about 200 people. It is Domodedovo region, Moscow oblast. 
The life here is as usual as in the another russian village. 
Of course, I must say that it is nice. I also would like to know about
your place.

As for my work. I work as an accountant in the small company. We sell
foodstuff for small shops. I can't say that I like my work, but it is
good job which I can get there. The position of my work is Domodedovo
city, it is near 30 km from my home. 
I have good education. I am graduate of Social university and I have a
deegree in Finance and Business Accounting. 

I can read and write English, and slightly speak. I don't have enough
practice in spoken English but I'd like to have. I want to improve my
skills. Recently I got some courses of spoken English and now I attend
lectures. 

About two weeks ago our company was connect to Internet. I like to
surf Internet, it is very interesting. And the most striking thing is
that I can see all over the world through the computer. I know that I
may look silly but I really enjoy this possibility. Yes, I must say
that I am begginer with Internet. I use computer at my work and I have
not much time in Internet. I don't have computer at home so I can send
you a message only when I work. I work 5 days a week so I will be
unable to write you on weekends. 
I have already been surfing for two weeks in Internet. So don't be
strict if I don't understand anything. I will learn it. Smile. 

Well, let me continue.
I wanted to tell how I came to conclusion to find someone through
Internet. I saw some dating services, I watched ads, but I didn't
think that it works. I don't know why I decided to reply to your ad.
To be honest I didn't think you would ever write me. I didn't think
that it works. But you did. It was so surprised. I am really glad to
talk with you. 

Well, I am a little confused and I don't know what to say. I hope all
this stuff is not too boring to read. Smile. 

Also thank you for your photo. You look nice.

Billy, I have already told you that I want to find someone through
Internet. I just wanted to say that it is my serious intention. I am
interested in you and I want us to be good friends. 
Six months ago I lost my boyfriend. It was sad time. But now I want
start new life with new person. 
It seems to me, that you are respectable and honest man. I think we
can understand each other. 

Well, I must close my message now. Waiting for your letter.

Yours faithfully Vnisy.

P.S. This photos are map of my village.

Hi Billy.

Don't worry about me. I am fine. At first I am sorry I couldn't write
you earlier. Lately I couldn't access Internet. I will try to write
you more often.

I can't write you from my work any more. I have new chief. He just
interdict use the internet at personal needs. 
I couldn't wait when I can come here to computer club to read your
letter. 
It really brights my day. Smile. I am really happy to get your reply.
And I like we both enjoy our correspondence. Your letters mean a lot
for me. 

Billy, yesterday evening I told with my uncle about you. He is
exciting about our friendly relationship. I read him some parts from
your letters. Not all, just some sentenses. Hope you don't mind I
share that with my uncle. He is the only close person to me and I
trust him. 

He thinks you are worthy man. But he said I must be cautious. I can
understand his feelings. But for me you are honest man and I don't
think you can ever deceive me. I know I may be mistaken with my
thoughts about you. Only time will say the truth. Smile. 

To be honest we discussed about my possibility to move to you. Smile.
Don't worry, it is just an idea. I understand that it is too early to
think about it. But who knows. Maybe at first we would meet in person.
Anyway my uncle said that he will support me in my choice and don't
mind if I move. 

Billy, I don't know what is going on with me. I found myself
thinking of you often. It seems to me that you are more than just a
friend to me. I hope I didn't scare you off with my thoughts. Smile. 
I wonder what you think about me as your possible life partner? Do you
think that we could have common future? I understand if it is too
straight question. But I would like to know your opinion. I am honest
with you and I want you to be honest with me too. We must trust each
other. It's very important in relationship. 

As for me I see you as my possible partner for life. I know we have
great distance between us. But with our letters I feel you close. I
believe you are the man with nice soul. I think personal contact is
more better than letters via e-mail. But now it is enough to know each
other better and see if we really can have something common in future.
Who knows probably we will meet one day and get married. Smile. 

Well, I continue to tell about me and my life here.
My usual day is not too interesting. I get up at 6 o'clock and at 8 I
must be at my work. It takes me about 40 minutes to get there by bus. 

Then I am at work until 5. About 6 o'clock I return home. Make some
domestic things like cleaning and washing. Three times a week I go to
gym, make some aerobics and dances. Sometimes I go to library,
theatre, to my friends. When I don't want to go anywhere I stay at
home to read a book or play piano, I like to learn a new music
composition. In the evenings I watch some film or show on TV and go to
bed. 

Today I got my salary at work. That small pleasant event always makes
people to love their work if only for a day. Smile. I don't earn large
sum of money. It is 3500 rubles (about $125 USD) for a month. But I am
enough satisfied with it. I wish I got more money, but I don't want to
become crazy about it. I saw many people who wanted to get much money.
Some of them gained it. But they almost changed their personality.
They can't talk about anything, only money. Yes, it is difficult to
make good money in Russia. But money is not my life goal. For my
salary I can buy something of clothes and it is enough to buy food.
For russian standard I have less average earnings. I have a TV set and
tape-recorder at home. I don't have a car, but I can drive it. I have
my bicycle and I enjoy to ride it. Smile. Not sure how interesting it
is to read about these things but I want you know. 

Billy, how much do you earn? I am just interesting. You don't need
to answer if you don't want.
I know that we have different life levels. But it is interesting what
are expenses for living at you. I pay about $50 USD for my flat and
electricity. In winter I pay additional 10 for central heating. I am
lucky I live in my mother's flat. This flat was given to my mother by
the Univercity where she worked. Actually it is not my accomodation. I
can just live here. I have only one room and a kitchen. I don't want
to complain of something. It is usual things here. I want to show you
life here. 

By the way how much is Internet access where you live? I am paying
about 48 roubles for an hour in this computer club (about $1.7 USD for
a hour). Billy, tell me about your the same things. I am
interesting what is your life there. 

I thought about my life and recent events. You know from my last
relationship with man I understood that the connection between man and
woman is very delicate. It needs efforts from both sides to be
supported and developed. You can't just date, make love and say words.
It is more deeper. My last boyfriend was a photographer. Some my
pictures were made by him. He was more than just a photographer, he
was an artist, a creator. Our parting was not a tragedy. In the
certain time we both understand we are not together and decided to
break it. I don't miss him. It was the best we could do. Billy I
don't know why I tell it to you. Now I want to create full
relationship and I know how to do it. I will try to give all my soul
to my man and I need his one for me. 
Well don't get it too close. It is just my thoughts and I don't claim
anything. Smile.

I have got your mailing address. Thank you. I wrote it down to my
notebook. This weekend I will try to send some card or a letter to see
if that works. You will let me know when you get it.

As for Christmas, I like this holiday. We celebrate Christmas in
Russia January 7. I don't think about Christmas now, because all
people to get ready to New Year. Usually the holidays of this type, I
celebrate with my uncle, because I think it is family holidays.

I can tell you about Russian Christmas. The people at the Russia,
who's believe in God, go to the Church in the Christmas. It is
Orthodox Russian custom - to serve Christmas cakes, to sing songs but
the tradition is mixed with pagan traditions of ancient Russia, when
people visit their neighbours in disguises, dance, sing and ask for
presents. Many superstitious traditions took place in the time:
witchcraft or fortune telling... Girls tried to foresee their future
husbands, fates and so on. 

Happy Christmas to you!

Thank you for picture. I enjoy it. You look nice.

Billy, give your phone number, I will try to call you.

Well, I must cut my letter here. Write me more. All what you think and
dream. I need it.

Looking forward to getting your letter.
Take care of you. 

Goodbye Billy.

Elena

Hi my dear Billy.

I am sorry for my long silence. I did have any possible to get e-mail.
All at our country get holiday. I will try to write you more now.

In Russia very much like to mark all holidays. Russia, probably, the
unique country, in which huge amount of holidays. the New Year for
Russian is a most favourite, cheerful holiday. In our country there is
a sign Ťas will meet the New Year so it and you will stayť. Therefore
for a holiday prepare long before and carefully. 
the New Year for most people is considered as family holiday. This
holiday celebrate in a circle of family relatives. Most people try to
dress in new clothes and to cover the celebratory table on especial
richly at this day. 

At the New Year in houses decorate a the New Year's tree. Parents
before the New Year put under a the New Year's tree the gifts for
children. When I was small, I trusted in Santa Claus. And always found
under a the New Year's tree in the New Year long-awaited gifts. One
day, when I was 6, the Santa Claus has come to my home. I sang song to
him and he gave me a gift, it was beautiful plush a bear. While I
considered a bear and was pleased for gift, the Santa Claus has left
to kitchen. And then I have seen, how the Santa Claus has removed a
beard and a cap, and I have found out in him my uncle. 

Then I also have understood, that there is no Santa Claus. Also that
it is a fairy tale. But I was not upset. I even on the contrary was
delighted, that my uncle can be such cheerful wizard. And till now
thethe New Year associated at me with magic. In the New Year I usually
think of desires, and they almost always come true. It is necessary to
trust simply. 
Usually in the New Year in Russia beautiful fluffy snow drops out. And
in the street it becomes very beautiful. Some people mark in the
street. Drink champagne, light candles, start up fireworks, sing
songs, dance, congratulate all on a holiday, wish each other all
blessings, happiness, pleasure. Very cheerfully.

I very much love the New Year. It is a magic holiday. As for me, I
celebrated New Year with my uncle. It was very nice. Hope you
celebrated it nice too.

I am always happy to receive your letters. Thank you. I am glad to
getting your e-mail ever. I hope you don't take offence at me. I
promise I will try to write you more often. 

Today we have great weather. Sunny and enough warm. 
I like this time very much. We have a mild weather now.
It is very good time for walking in the parks here. I would like you
were here and we could go for walk and talk with each other.

You know Billy I miss you. Smile... Yes, I have never seen you but
I miss you. With our correspondence I feel you close to me. Don't know
how it may happen but I have a feeling we know each other for a long
time. 

Billy I am sorry I can't write you long letter today. I have
some things to do today and I must go.
I just wanted to let you know that I received your message and I don't
forget you, I think about you every day. 

I will write you soon.
Bye.

Yours Elena.

P.S. Billy I have some art pictures, I will send you in one with

Hi, Billy.

I am really happy we are in touch. Thank you for your letters. They
make my days. I think of you constantly. You are very close to me. I
don't know how it could happen so fast. It is amazing. I feel you very
close, but I can't see you. 

You see we both are sincere with each other. I think it is the way
people must comunicate with each other. I think that we mustn't hide
our feelings and thoughts. I do it. I am ready to give myself to the
destiny. I believe in fortune. I think I am lucky to find you. 

Billy I miss you in the evenings. Sometimes at nights I dream of
you. I see you smiling and whispering my name. You know I wish you
were here next to me or I were near you. I want to touch your hand, to
see in your eyes and whisper your name... Sweet dream. 

I believe we are compartible and we could be a great couple. I have
thought a lot about us and came to conclusion. Billy we must meet
in person. I want to touch your hand and see into your eyes. Really. I
thought is it really so hard for us to meet? We live on the same
planet, just in different places.

Billy I want to visit you. Would you like to meet me in person?
Would you like to see me in real? I want it. I think if we both want
it we can do it. Is it a crazy idea? 

We met in virtual space. We found out that we have common thoughts and
ideas for living. We both need someone in our lifes. We like each
other. So we must meet. 
We must meet to see if we are persons who we see in our letters and
our thoughts. We should meet to learn each other more, to talk, to
feel each other. We should check up our expectation in real life. I
don't see the sense to continue our corresponds and to make image of
our relationship in our minds. 

I think we must meet and see if the things will work out between us,
see if we will fall in love with each other. Without meeting in person
we can't create full understanding of person. I want to meet you and
to develop our relationship. I know we met in Internet but we met each
other. It means a lot. 

Billy I would like to visit you this winter. I will have vacation
and I think it would be good time to meet. Tell me what you
think about it? 

Billy, I really feel nervous right now. I don't want to stay
friends. You see it is not enough for me. I want more. You may think I
am crazy, we never met. I understand. But can't do anything with it. I
feel this way and I am ready to continue our relationship in more
close manner. 

I told with my uncle about this. He is very exciting for me. But he
doesn't mind. He said "it is your life Elena and you are worth to
have your happy". 
He also said that he has good friend in Moscow who works as a lawyer
in emigration field. Uncle said he will help me with all paperworks. I
will learn about what papers I need to make and then I will tell you.
I don't know how long it will take me and how hard it will be. 

Billy I want also to enlist your support. Can you help me if I need
something from you? I don't know what exactly, maybe some information
about you or something else. 
Do you think it is possible for us to meet? I think yes.
I believe in fortune and I think it smiled on us. If we could meet
each other in Internet we can meet in real. I am sure we will have
happy future together. 

Billy I am so excited thinking of it. Yes, I surely want to
embrace you and I will do everything that depends from me to make us
met. Please, write sooner what you think. I am sorry if this letter is
a little chaotic. I am just very exciting. 

With love.
Yours Elena.

p.s. I want to visit, but who know maybe I will stay with you. Smile.



Subject: visa research

Hi Billy.

I want to tell you very serious thing.
Billy, I have done some research for coming to you. And I have good
results. I talked to my uncle's friend about it. He works as a lawyer
in immigration agency in Moscow. His company helps people to solve all 
questions about travels, organized tours and immigration. They also
make all paperworks and passport required for travelers. I got his
professional advice about my wish to come to you. 

He said that I would need visa and passport to come to you. His
company can make all these papers in 10 days. This company is
connected with American Embassy. That's why they work so
quickly. 
I asked what I would need to do and he told me about all stages in
this process. At first I need to apply for visa in this company. They
will make an inquiry into embassy in Moscow. Usually it takes about
two days. After they will receive authorization for my visa I will
need to contract for their service. Then they will start their work. I
will get visa, all papers and passport in 10 days. Then I can get
ticket for a plane and fly to you. 

Their service costs $350 USD. I know this is a lot, but it is fast and
reliable. 
The lawyer said I can try to get visa by myself but it will take more
time, about 6-12 months. I will need to come to embassy and apply for
visa. The pay is about $150 USD. Then I will need to come there some
times to sign different papers and wait. You see it could take more
time, money and nerve finally. 

What do you think of this occasion? I think it is great chance for us
to meet. There is the reason we must hurry with it. This company have
a licence to issue visas. But the government of the USA decided to
limit number of visas since this year. This company will not issue
visas any longer since February 1, 2005. The only way to get visa will
be the embassy and it is very hard, almost impossible for lonely young
woman. So I will not be able to get visa that way. Also the lawyer
said that they have limited number of visas they can issue for this
year. This is the rule of US Embassy. Now they have few visas they can
give. He said if I want to get visa I must do it as soon as possible.

You see we must hurry if we want to meet in person. I must say that I
have already applied for visa. Don't you mind? 

Billy, I love you and I need to meet you in person. We must do it
as soon as possible. You know I haven't $350 USD. It makes me so sad.
What can I do? I hate I have no this money. And I feel very
uncomfortable to ask you for money. 
If I could pay for it I would do it without any doubts. I can get
about $50 USD for visa but I need another 300. Billy, I know we
will be happy together. Please, help me with visa money, help us to
meet. 

As for visa's period of validity it works for 3 months. I can prolong
it if I will need. And I also can marry you if we will decide to do it. 
Billy, please, think of it. It is our chance, we can't miss it.
I must pay for visa next week. You see they take payment in advance
usually. But the lawyer made an exception for me, because he is my
uncle's friend. And I promised to pay in these days. I can't let him
down. 

Trust me Billy. It is the best way we can meet. If you really want
to meet me and help, please send money these days. 

Use Money Gram system. We have several Money Gram agents locally here.
So I will be able to receive your money without any problems. They are
very fast and reliable. You will need to put in order my name as
Elena Ushakova and location - Moscow. After you send money let me know
Reference number of your transfer, your name and address as it appears
in transfer order. I will need this data to get your money. You can
send money from any moneygram agent. Look at their web site:
www.moneygram.com

Billy, I understand that it is maybe too fast and rush, but we need
it. We can meet and we must use this chance. I know it is much money
but I don't have this money. I think I could save this sum in an year
but we can't wait so long. 

Billy, you see it will be the first step to our future. I must get
visa at first. I understand that it may take some months to save money
for ticket. I will try to find them here, at least part of them. But I
can't find money for visa in such short time. Help me.

I do it, because I love you and I trust you. I believe in our future,
I believe in you. I love you.

Yours Elena.

p.s. I am sorry if I seem too pressing in this letter, I've just
wanted to let you know how important it is for us to meet.


Subject: What matter?

Hi Billy.

I still feel uncomfortable for asking money from you. Probably I
hadn't do it. I don't know.
Billy I can imagine how you feel. But see I have a risk too coming to
you. I have told to many people about it. And I have heard some
negative stories about girls coming to another country. The usual was
about Americans who invited Russian girls to come to America. Then
Americans took girls' passports and made them to work as prostitutes
or kept them as slaves at home. I know you are not like them.
It was very hard desision for me to come to you. I thought a lot about
it. And it is not irrational decision.

I understand you are careful and you can't trust me completely, but
what can I do to prove you my intentions. I just was trying to be
completely honest with you so you could see my real soul. I am sorry I
couldn't do it.

I know only one thing. If you want to get something you should do it
by yourself because no one wants to help you. I've done big work to
find the way to come to you, I've prepared all papers. I cast aside all 
my uncertainty and doubts about my fears. I know if things will not work 
between us and if you turn out not what you told about I will stay in 
the street without money and any support. But I trust you and I want to
meet you to start new life together. To be honest I expected your help.

I don't know if you will help me with money or not. I don't care about
it. I will do everything by myself. I don't know if I will find money
here or not. We will see it. I must pay for my visa paperworks next week.
I will write you later and let you know if I have visa or not.

Billy I just can't understand your words. You said come to me. But you
don't beileve me. How can you know that we will be happy together and
I will not run from you with all your money. You want to be happy but 
you can't overcome your fears. Why others' opinion is stronger than yours own?
Why you believe other people, but don't confide your heart?

I ask myself why people are so distrustful. Is the reason money? I
hear words about love and trust about future life but when matter is
money I become a fraud. I hate it. Money rules the world? Do you
think so? When the matter is money other things disappear. Why?
You can check me, my words, my background. I don't care. I am not
afraid because I am honest with you. But it hurts when you think so.

Well Billy I finish my letter. I don't want to say something offensive
for you. You are the adult and you make your choice. I can't judge you.
May I ask you a question? Can you hear your heart??? ...I can.

Always yours.
Lena

p.s. Billy I am glad you have got my picture in mail. I was worried it
didn't come through. It is one of my favourite pictures and I am glad
you like it.
