Alla Saphiullina: I will call you from airport before my flight

Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following emails. They are socalled "Advance Fee Fraud" letters, where I will be asked to send money again and again. The "russian love scams" starts with a long series of letters about a russian girl living in a small town, and she travels to Moscow. She will ask you to help her pay the plane ticket to meet you outside russia. If you pay, she will start to ask you to send her money for clothes, medicine, tickets, certificates, etc. If you pay, another fee will quickly come up, and it will continue that way until you give up or run out of money. You will never meet the girl, because the story was all lies.

If you received a similar email, you should go to the homepage to read more about 419 fraud.

Hello!!!
It was very nice to receive a message from you!
I'm sending my photos so you can remember who I am.
it is my first time I try to correspondence with man in internet world.
I do hope you will be enough patient to understand my writing.
I want you to know that I have only good intentions and I don`t have
big secrets. The thing is that I will work abroad for three months or so and I would
like to meet a nice man to be my guideor just be good friend to spend time with.I think that it is
hard enough to live in foreign town without friends and also I have never been abroad. I am from so small
town here in Rusian Federation,I am afraid to be lost.
I want to see real life and it is impossible to see without
person who knows all sides of the life. It doesn`t matter what age is
he or what is his eyes color, I just want to know that he is kind and open-hearted inside.
I don't want to live in Rusian Federation because I have not any chances here,it
is hardly possible to explain it by the first time but I want you to
know my plans. In Ru ssia many young girls also want to start a new life abroad, so
many of them used a special program "W ork and travel" for young people who wants to
work abroad. I also decided to do so and to use it. This program just helps to
register documents and gives suitable work in any state(town)of USA, Canada or Europa (or other big
country) . I just need to choose.I already started to register
documents and now I need to decide in which city I want to work.
I`m 26 years old and I`m not afraid of work (I shall work as the seller in shop or cafe of a fast food).
I think it is the right way for me, I am lost here, and I think that I look pretty enough
to find a better place. I never been abroad so I decided to find a friend abroad and make his
city to be my destination. I want to repeat the same way,it is my only chance to change my life.
I am full of plans and different dreams.
I fair-haired and at me grey eyes! I think I look very good, but
first of all I want to be beautiful inside.
I do hope that you will be not disappointed to meet me in the real
life if we will meet.
Well,I will close this letter and I do hope to get your reply.
I will leave my town in a few days or so (I can't tell you everything
exactly right now) and I would like to
be sure that I have a man who waits for me there. I will work all day
and I would like to find a man to spend all free time together to get to know each other better.
if you have any interest to meet me I will be more than happy to meet
you too. My be it sounds silly but I just don't want to be alone in the
evenings,and I want to be sure in advance that somebody waits for me!
I think that my e-mail starts to be too long so I will tell you all
details about me and my life that you would like to know in next e-mails if you will like my
pictures and will want to meet me! I send my photos.
I hope you the soft and kind as my toy on photo (as mine Mike Mouse)

With best regards Alla! (this is my real name)
>>P.S<<
I hope it's OK with you and I will receive an answer from you!
I'm responding from my private email address.
I hope I'm your type of girl, I'm not sure you like Slavic
appearance!! I hope so!
OK, I will wait for your answer. When I hear back from you I will
write more things about myself and send more pics!

Hello! my Tiger! Thank's for your reply so much!!!
Can I call you - "my tiger"? Or is better by NAME?
I like your photo!!!!!I find you very attractive!!!!!
I'm OK about your age! Have you heard a saying The older the violin the sweeter the music?!
I hope soon I will be able to come to your area and we will meet each other!
This time I will write you more about myself. I think you should know
more about my life and my hobbies so you will know if we have any
common interests. I'm 26 years old, not too young I
think? My birthday is 10 April. I'm 164,5 cm tall (5.4) and 54,6 kg weight..
I don't know exactly my bust-waist-hips measurements, I
don't have a reason to measure it because I think it's OK and my body
is proportionate ))
I take care of my body, I do aerobics three times
a week and I go to the swimming pool twice a week.
I have no sister or brother. I live with the father and mother and a cat :-).
We all live in two-rooms flat.
As I wrote you I live in Russia. The name of my city is Zima,
it's near Irkutsk city. Zima is very small and Irkutsk is a
large city, the main city in our district.
I graduated from Irkutsk Humanitarian University two years ago.
As I wrote you I`m a menager of the big shop, my city is small but we have a
big shop here. Sometimes I attend courses in
Irkutsk so I have several diplomas (look
pic), but you know in russia we don`t have good work opportunities. But this work help me to take
care about myself. When I come to your city I think it won`t be a problem to find work on
my specialization (I shall work as the simple seller).
My father is 58 years old now, my mom is 46. You see my mom
is much younger then my father and they are very happy together. My
mother is a teacher of music in the school. I also could play a piano a
little. I like classic music, jazz, rock, lounge. I like all kinds of music!
A little about my father: he is in a good shape because we usually make
exercises together, he doesn`t work now, because he is retired already.
I love both my parents and I'm happy my parents will be not alone when
I leave them and will go to another country. Of course I will miss
everybody but I want to have my own happiness!

Do you have an International Airport in your city? Please write me it's name an code.
Or write me the name of the nearest INTERNATIONAL Airport to you.

I write you my emails from Internet cafe, I don't have my own computer.
If you want I can call you when I will be in Moscow, it would be nice
to talk to you. We don't have international calls here. I suppose in few
days I will fly to Moscow and start my trip! Today I will tell my parents
about you, I'm sure they will be happy that someone is waiting for me over there!
There is no any messenger in this Cafe so we can only keep emailing
each other. I hope you are not getting bored to read my emails?
My address here is Russia, Zima (Irkutskaya oblast'), Merinowa street 5, flat 12, post code(zip) - 665390.
So now you have a representation of who I am....
I just can tell you that I enjoy life and I try to live to the
fullest, I like to try new things. I'm not that smart.. I was not that
good in mathematics, physics, biology and so on! I don't like to be
smart! But I'm very tender, caring, artistic, faithful, decent person.
Sometimes I can be not well organized, I think everybody had it's own
minuses and pluses. I don't look any special qualities in a man. I just hope he will be
faithful to me and ready to create a happy family with me and I will
do everything to make him happy. I'm looking for a soulmate!

OK... it's time to finish my email. I'm sending a kiss by the wind to
you and if I sent it to the right destination you should receive it by
evening )))) I hope you will catch my kiss somehow )))
You like my photos? On them I at university in dean's office!
On other photo my favourite cat "Tiger" I very much love him :-)

bye!

Subject: Can you be faithful?
Date: Friday, 21 March, 2008, 3:54 PM

Hello again..OK!..I understood you ;-)
I just want to add few things... I think last time I wrote you not all
my thoughts... My mind is always in a mess when I write you because
it's hard to write everything to somebody who is so far away. I don't
remember if I wrote last time I've never been married, don't have
kids but I love them and they love me! I
And I want to tell you that I always wanted to find an older man.
Why? I have two answers..
Firstly, I think older men are much more serious and they can take
care of me, they are more experienced in life and can teach me many
things. Have you heard a saying "The older the violin, the sweeter the
music"? I believe in it... I think I'm not that young already but I
don't have much experience in life and I want to have someone who has
more experience in life then me.
Secondly... maybe I'm not right about it... but I want to be honest
I've always had such worry... if I marry a man nearly my age...
and after some years I will become not that young and beautiful... I
think it's more hard for a woman to be attractive then for a man...
and he will find a younger mistress and I will become very miserable.
I don't want my man to be unfaithful. I know I can be faithful to my
man and I will never cheat on him.
But this is just my worries. This is not my goal. Please tell me if
you think you will love your woman at any age and not find a younger
one? Can you be faithful?
Also I want to tell you that I learned english in university, so I don`t
use any translators, and I can speak english as good as I write on it.
I hope we will have no problems in communications. I feel that
you are very nice man I really want to meet you. If you will not like
me or something else we can be just friends.
I hope I will get my work visa soon in Moscow and all documents and I
come to you! I don't have any area limits with this visa so I can work
where I want. I don`t know exact day of my arrival, but as soon as I will
knowI will write it to you.
You know, I'm just trying to be honest with you and write you all my thoughts on
different issues. Please be always honest with me also....
I will write you later, I will look if I have more nice photos to sendyou.
Have a good day!

hello!

It's good to write you again! I think I'm a lucky girl to meet such

good man as you in Internet! I hope I will be lucky enough to meet you

in the real life!!! Yesterday I told my parents about you.

They said that now they don`tworry about me as before because now they know you are a kind man

and can help me if I will need your help. You can show me your city and

tell me about the life over there! I think I didn't write you I like cooking.

I will cook Russian cuisine for you! Pelmeni, vareniki, blini, borsch, okroshka!

You will like it! Besides Russian cuisine I like Italian and Mexican. I love

spaghetti and pizzza!!!!! mmmmmmm ! I can't live without it! I like

Mexican food because it's very spicy, although I don't cook Mexican

dishes too often. I've been told my cooking is very tasty!

I like to cook cakes. My favorite is cheese-cake with raspberry! You

know... when I talk about food I'm getting hungry ))) I eat everything

and I'm not on any diets but usually I don't eat after 7 pm. This

helps me not to be fat! I can cook many tasty things for you when we will meet! You know..

almost all Russian men are like bears! They are so rude, they can't be nice

and polite, they don't want to have a family. I think you are not like them.

I like to go to the cinema! I really like to watch a good movie with

my friends. 50 percents of movies in our cinemas are Russian and about 50

American. Actually my favorite actor is William Smith and I like all movies with

him. I've watched "I am legend"Have you seen it?

Could you recommend me any American movie so I can watch it?

What is your favorite movie and actor? Soooooooooooooooo......... what else could I say?

I have a driver's licence but I don't have a car. My father has a

Russian car and he gives me his car sometimes.

I don`t like only cinema! I like theatre and opera too, I like ballet.

Unfortunately there is only one small theatre in my city and there is

nothing interesting. If I want to go to ballet, for example, I should

go to Irkutsk, there sometimes can come famous Russian actors and

dancers but I can't go there often because it's quite expensive.

By, the way, one thing else about my trip. Agency will help me to rent a room

to stay near my future work. I will share this room with a few girls yet,

it is usual procedure and it helps to pay the rent (it will be cheaper).

And I have a question, is it normal if we will like each other may be it is

possible to live together?of course if you or somebody doesn't mind.

As you know I will stay there for three months but If I will like there I will be

able to prolong my trip. I think I will be able to improve my english and you can learn Russian

and I think it will help us to learn each other better,who knows.Do you have a big

wide bed?(joke). And now I have some good news for you! After sending this email I will

go home, take my packed bags and go to Irkutsk! From there I will fly to Moscow! I`m

really afraid to fly on a plane! I hope my plane will not fall down! I'm really afraid!

It is several hours from Irkutsk to Moscow.

When I come to Moscow and settle down I will write you an email. I

hope today I will be able to write you. Please don't worry about me

if you don't hear from me today, that will mean I was not able to

find a place to stay and I will write you tomorrow.

In Moscow I will spend a week or maybe even more, I should make all

final arrangements with my documents and after it I will come to you!

I've never been to Moscow before and I'm so nervous now... I've never

went somewhere alone and now I should go alone to such big city!

I really want to talk to you by phone, but as I don`t have a mobile

phone, I will find a public phone in Moscow with international calls.

You know... I had such great desire to start my trip already.. and now

I feel myself like a newborn kitten who has even didn't open it's

eyes... I just want to hug my mommy and don't want to go anywhere...

but I know that's my dream to start a new life and I will try to turn

in to reality! Soon you will hear some news from me from

Moscow!!!!!!!!

Love and kisses! hope I'm the one for you!

I send you a photo... but I do not smoke :-)

on a photo simply a joke

Hello!!! I'm so excited to write you again!!!!!!!!!! I'm in Moscow! You can't
imagine how happy I am because I already started my trip to you!
I still cannot believe I've done it! WoW! As I wrote you I was scared
to fly on the plane but everything was OK and I'm still alive ))))
Moscow is a really big city! I've been told the population of Moscow
is about 10 million of people! From the Airport I went by bus... it
was so long way... about 1 hour and 30 minutes. I've seen so many nice
places in Moscow while going by bus!
When I got off the plane in the Moscow Airport policeman asked me about
passport and he looked at me like I am an enemy )))
I think all people here are a little crazy because of terrorism.
Everything here is very expensive, not like in my city... and
everywhere are big crowds of people! Everywhere is so many people! I
feel uncomfortable because of it but I hope I will be OK soon.
I found a place to stay, I rent a room from an old policeman. He is about
70 years old. He said his wife died 2 years ago and he
doesn`t have money to live, so he give in rent rooms in her apartment.
He is very nice man. He said I have to be very careful.
You know... he said many girls from small cities come to big cities, they are looking for a
better future and fortune but because they are from small cities they
can`t imagine that their way to find the happiness can be not so easy as they
thought... and some of them can end up as prostitutes or something
like that. He said I should be careful when I will meet you!! But I
don't worry about you! I feel with all my heart you are really nice man!
Sorry I wrote you about my worries.. I have nobody to write about it.
My parents are worried enough about me and I don't want
to make them to worry more. I think that's really good I've met you! I
can write you about everything. I miss my parents... but I'm getting better with every hour ))
Now I'm very hungry and I will go and eat something.
I`m sending for you some photos of Moscow that I found in internet.
Please confirm the name of international airport (and his code) and be sure you wrote it right.
I am afraid to make any mistake... I hope everything will be fine.
please write me as soon as possible!See you soon! Great kiss from Moscow!!

I am so glad to see that we are almost near our goal,and our meeting

wait for us. I think I will call you from airport before my flight.

You know I booked tickets on Tuesday flight and I will buy them before

my intervew. People from embassy must be sure that I am not going to stay illegally,

so I need to buy roundtrip tickets (with returning date).

I wanted to ask you about electronic tickets but they tell that

I can't use because it is their businees to arrange all travel details

and they have some extra money from all the things,

you see it is just business.I think that you will be able to help me

because I don't know anybody here and only you are my hope now,

I think everything in your hands and I believe that you will not leave

me here alone.please borrow some money. I am sure I will be able to return all your money

back after a few weeks, I will get salary and I will collect the sum I own from you.

To be fair I am not sure I know what to say because I hate to ask but

now I have no different way, you see.Please help me it is only money

and much more important if we will meet in person I will do my

best, you won`t be disappoined. I see that it sounds a little crazy

but I can't believe that in the worst case I have to return

home,they all will laugh at me.I think it rests with you to decide and I feel that

you will help me because you are kind. I have about 300 US dollars yet and I think

I need about 980 US dollars from your side with all travel needs and living here till my

flight! (I had 1180 dollars, but flight from Irkutsk, opening visa, medical

insurance and all travel needs costed about 800 dollars).

For truth I didn`t expect I will need to buy roundtrip tickets, but now

I see that its a very strict rule.

Please send it today by Western Union or Money Gram

I will write you details:

>> !!! <<

Send it to Russia, Alla Saphiullina !!!!This is my full name!

Also I've got an advice to send you a scan copy of my passport

in case you need to confirm my details.

This is my full name used in all official documents. They said this is all info you need.

But please for any case write down more info. The address where I'm staying:

prospekt Leningradskiy 25 - 10. I rent a small room In an apartment of an old policeman here, it's

cheaper then hotel.The address of the closest Western Union (or MoneyGram) here is:

"ABSOLUT BANK"

125284, prospekt Leningradskiy, 33 korpus 3

I have some money but it's not enough to complete my trip.

Please send me 980 US dollars and I will complete my trip!

After it please write me all details about the transfer -

your FULL NAME and Money Transfer Control Number!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will call you as soon as I receive it.

When I receive the money I will pay for my trip and only then

the embassy will put all final stamps on my documents.

I've bought you few souvenirs with Russian attributes!!! I'm

sure you will like them! If you need something more please let me

know, they are not expensive. Also I bought two boxes of Russian

chocolate! I hope so much when I come to you we will like each other!

You are already very special to me!

Please when I come to you tell me more about you and your country!

I will listen to everything you tell me and I will do everything you

tell me! I trust you really much!

I hope you will not do something to hurt my feelings.... I

think you are really good man. I will never do anything to hurt yours!!!

By statistics Moscow is the second most expensive city in the

world after Tokyo... everything is so expensive here... and I have

to pay for my rent and food and buy tickets.. please help me..

Hello!! OK!
I’m very glad that you replied me so fast.
I thought that telling about money, I have lost you.
In Russia it’s often occurs with men.
I suggest it is for hard economic situation in our country.
Men don’t need women with their love.
As for me, I can say that the need to love and to be loved is on the first place for me.
My request for help from one hand is the opportunity to come to you,
and from other hand is the approval of seriousness of your plans.
I’m sorry that my confidence in our victory against the problems differs a bit from yours.
Because you are a man and I am a woman.
If everything were on contrary, the world would go upside down.
I will back all money to the last cent without doubt, and if everything will be ok, I will stand for you forever.
That’s why I ask you a question: are you serious in your intensions? If yes, write me soon.
I hope very much that I provoked sympathy in you.

excuse...sending of money...I shall repeat procedure

To send money through Western Union or MoneyGram you need to
1. Find a local Western Union or MoneyGram office
(they are usually located in the banks and post offices)
2. Fill in their send form with my name = Alla
and surname = Saphiullina along with my country =
Russia location and the amount you're sending (980)
3. Take a copy of the receipt that they give to you that contains your full name
and the money tranfer control number

kiss you
