At this point, I was getting REALLY suspicious. We corresponded a few more times, and I told her I had contacted the American Consulate directly (and I did). She said that was a "bad mistake" because if the Consulate thought she was coming to the US to meet someone in a romantic way, they would force her to get a Fiancee visa instead of a tourist visa. I realized I was getting scammed, so I wrote her a good-bye note. She sent me a few emails after that saying "I will die if you leave me", and other such nonsense. That was last weekend. I havent heard from her since. I wish I had known about your site BEFORE I sent the money. Oh, well, life is a learning experience. David
Hi dear Dave, My name is Yulia, I hope you have read some information from my profile, but i would like to tell you little bit more. I live in small and beautiful city on Ural in Russia - Lesnoy. Its near by Ekaterinburg.I was born here and lived all my life. I liked my school years and also when i was in college, I went there after school and I have got a higher education . After college I began to work and I work nearly 1 year. I am work n my city at one firm as a manager and selling their products. I live without my mother and father. I rent apartment with one my girlfriend. My mother,father, grandmother and grandfather live near by me. My parents are married already 23 years. My mothers name Anna and she is 47 y.o. She is a doctor and working in local hospital andhelp children. My fathers name Roman, he is 55 y.o and he is engineer. I am working 5 days a week , 8 hours a day and i have 2 days off. Usually I spend my free time with my close friends. We like to walk,go to movies, theatres and discos. I like aerobics very much and i often visit an aerobic classes. I learned English in School and college. My english is not so bad, but as for the speech its worse because I do not have a practise. I enjoy cooking and i like to cook with my family when i have free time. Now i am thinking about my future and i am trying to find a good guy, but to tell you the truth its very hard to do it here because most of all my friends, guys of my age are not serious and they want just a physical relationship and also they drink to much. I am a very simple but kind and open person, I rarely get angry and the simplest things can make me happy: a sunny day, a candy, the face of somebody special...I loath lies and betrayal and I always try to treat people right. I am romantic and tender person, vulnerable at times. I need the love and support alot and if I get it I give twice as much. I think I can be a good wife and ...after all nothing really matters except to love and be loved in this life and if you are you manage everything I believe. I will tell you a bit more when you write me back. If you have a questions please ask and i will answer with great pleasure. Sending you some pictures and hope to get some from you. Sincerely yours, YuliaFour emails later, she asked me to pay for part of her cruise. Luckily, I had at least some sense and had told her that I could not afford the entire $1060 she said the travel agency needed. Here is the email requesting I pay $500 for her tour.Hi my dearest Dave, I am so happy to hear from you today, thanks for the pictures i really liked them.I am fine and hope the same with you there.
