fraud using a false web site for travel

Hello My name is David and I want to share a new and novel way to scam to potential members on this web site. I recently met on this site a very attractive woman named Marina. However I was suspicious of her intentions for three reasons which by now you already know. The first were her pictures which were quite provacative. The second were here letters which appeared to be form letters revealing very little about her and of course the last being her hurry to meet me........where in my own country of course!! Now what gives this story a twist and should be of some interest was how the scam was set up. Unlike most women who ask for the full amount of money she only asked for about 500 dollars "willing to pay the rest" She provide a travel agency which on the surface appeared legitamate TRAVELGEO complete with numbers to call website information. However when I attempted to call the agency.....no answer I accessed thru the internet every travel agency in Russia and could not find this agency listed. This was a very convincing scam. Marina provided what appeared to be a legitamate passport and would probably have been successful except the amount of money she asked for even with what she said she could pay herself would barely cover her expenses to the USA and not her return trip home. Bottom line if someone provides you with information regarding obtaining tickets and travel from abroad double check the veracity of the agency itself. If this an old topic I'm sorry I've wasted your time but for me this was definetely something I had not encountered before David

Hi Dave,
I had a women scan me her passport and Visa for travel to the United States but when I emailed the U.S. Embasy they notified me that no such Visa was ever issued.
These scams are getting very elborate.

Hey thanks Barry. That's a great way to check the veracity of the scammer! Where did you go to get the info on the web? If more people used this method and just let the women give it "the ole college try" more could be exposed and eliminated from this site. In fact they might just reward you for it. I have a membership on TRUE and I reported so many scammers I got 4 months money refunded to me and am in contact with the sites manager. What do you think now Tony just another rubarb? David
