Scam profile here: http://www.antiscamclub.com/scam_pages/scamad3.php?id=222&id_s_ad=240

I am receiving scam e-mails from a woman named Yuliya, whose address is sunnyhere75@yahoo.com. The scam is only
beginning, but I will see how far it goes. No money was asked yet, but I received many photos.

In the message today "she" said she was going to Moscow. "She" has already sent me 12 pictures. It is interesting that yesterday I replied "her" message stating that I saw her pictures in antiscam club, but her message today has no comment on that. However, now "she" recognizes my name because I wrote in the body of the message "My name is Pedro". It seems to be an automatic reply system that disregards most information except what is useful for the scam,
or it is managed by someone who doesn't understand English well and has
a prepared text. I will continue replying. Probably she will lose all her money in Moscow, be captured by the Mafia and ask me some money.
Do you have some idea of how to find the real people doing this scam?
(for instance, findind the IP which sent the message)

If you know her IP address you can know her city.

Last weekend "Yuliya" asked me money for the first time. I didn't send
a reply and only received one more message from her asking the same
amount. Her messages seem to come from France.

Now she has a family name: Aphanasencko. In Greek, "aphan" means
invisible, unseen. Isn't "she" great?

Important: "she" asked only $1500.00 to travel from Moscow
to the US. I think the game is to begin with a small amout of money,
which a man considers a small price to have "Yuliya" with him.
I did not send money nor emails, then the scam died.

My advice to all is to have fun with these emails, ask more pictures,
but never send money and avoid sending your own pictures.

Here is the message from "Yuliya" asking money:

Here is the info, about my flight, that I was given in agency:

Information for Yuliya Aphanasencko

-----------------------------------------------------
I've got all the information and I'm resending it for you!! You see after my visit to the consulate and to the agency I am so happy to say we will meet in few days!!!! I am really lucky girl to meet you. Honey the thing is that I booked the nearest possible flight. I need some of your help. there is one small problem but I am sure we will be able to solve it. I wanted to ask you to help me to pay for my tickets directly but they tell I can't use your help or ask you about sending me tickets because I have a permission to use the help of the travel agency only because they do all travel things and it is their business to arrange all travel things for my trip, such is the law. It is not possible to get a work visa without the help of the agency, they have too strict rules of getting visas.
I was sure my mom will help me because she promised but now she sent a letter explaining it is possible only in few months or so because of our family problems. She can't send a transfer now. I was in the bank to try to ask them a loan but they said I need to have a registration in Moscow to get a loan from their bank and I don't have it! I think it is not great problem for you to help me. I even hope maybe it will be pleasure to help me because you are my knight, right? after all payments here and my flight from Chelyabinsk I have about 700 dollars of my own money and I need about 950 US dollars from your side because I have to pay for my tickets and few more things, and I have to pay in advance about 1590 dollars. The tickets are roundtrip and this price includes all arrangements of documents and everything. Honey, I've been told fuel fees and tickets and everything became more expensive and I didn't expect it............
I have to be sure that I will be able to book my tickets or I will lose all the money I gave them in advance. I'm not going to ask one more time for your help, you see I am in such situation... I will be waiting for your answer. I know it sounds like I am a poor outsider but you see I don't have enough time to find the money I need and find somebody to help me, you know my mom gave me all she could collect for my travel. I hate to ask but now I don't have any other choice. I need some help from you, please help me to leave Moscow and it is all I ask now and you know I am full of the love to share with you. Kiss you, counting days and minutes before our meeting. You know it is only money, and I think it is not too hard for you to help me, you see I have such chance only once in my life. I know you are a kind man and I hope you will be able to help me. I promise I will return all the money and I will earn money because I am ready to work as hard as I can! You know my rent address here is Russia, Moscow, Korneichuka, Street 18, flat - 34. Remember my full name is Yuliya- (first name) Aphanasencko-(last name). It is right writing in English, and you should put it on western union list and you can choose any bank in Moscow, they tell it is international service and I can pick up the money at any bank of Moscow. They said I can get only western union transfer because I have not any bank accounts in Moscow and I have only passport and it is enough to get it!
If you need the address of Western Union in Moscow is
AVANGARD BANK
KORNEICHUKA 54
Moscow, 109047

Actually I've been told you can send it to any of their offices. I can call you as soon as I receive the transfer to let you know about it. And please after you complete a transfer write me the number of your transfer, I'm not sure how it's call but they will give you a number of your transfer.

Million of Kisses,
Your poor Yuliya

P.S. I am not sure I should tell this but I want to let you know if you don't like me when I come I will not bother you and it is only your choice to spend time with me or not. I know you may be too busy, and in any case I will return the money back. I can have a room for rent if I want, a job and I want to say please don't worry I don't want to use you just to reach my goal. I am sure when we meet we will have no regrets about it, I promise. Please, don't leave me alone I've done so much to start this trip and I don't want to give up. And I can stay more than six months, I can stay longer and I can prolong my visa. I want to get to know you better..... to learn more things about you, to touch your hand.. look in your eyes...

Hello my darling!!!
I'm writing to you as soon as I can!!!!!! I was busy with many
arrangements!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also I had to repeat some words for my
English test and I finally passed my test today morning!!!
Today I was in the travel agency and I received an information about my trip!
I will be very thankful to you if you can meet me at the Airport!
I will arrive to you on Saturday, November 15!!!!!!
I hope so much it's a good day for you to meet me!
The full cost of my trip including documents and roundtrip tickets is
1399 US dollars.
I passed all tests and everything and all papers are ready. I will
pass my final interview at the embassy this week and they will put all
stamps in my documents and I will come to see you!
I can't say I'm too much nervous. I know you are waiting for me and
I hope you will tell me everything about your country and show me some
nice places over there.
I will travel eco class, I hope my flight will be OK. It's so many
hours to spend on the plane, I've never done such big flights.
As far as I remember it was about five hours to fly to Turkey from my
city and it's the longest flight I've done.
I will be able to stay over there during 12 months and then I can
prolong my visa or change my status.
I will have a spesial work visa for nurses and I will work as a nurse.
I'm happy I have a job lined up and I hope everything will works out!
I want to meet you and talk to you and get to know you better.
I feel we will like each other, at least I hope so.
If you decide you know me not well enough and want to be only friends
with me I will stay in a hostel for nurses.
But I hope you will like me!!!!!!!!!! I have a good feeling about it!
I've learnt how to make international calls. I've
been told not all public phones and suitable to do this and I've been
told which one I can use not far from the place where I'm staying.
If you want me to call you just tell me and I will try to call you!
Also will you pick up the phone or someone else and I should ask to
talk to you?
As I wrote you I will come later this week and I will stay here for
several days.
So now I have to make final arrangements with my documents.
I told you I passed all tests, I have all documents I need to get a
job and everything.
Please try to help me to finish my arrangements.
And I need to pay for this flight. I thought they can pay for my
flight because it's a work program but such possibility was available
for nurse visas. The limit of such payments already expired this year and
they said I should pay it by myself.
You can plan a pretty picnic, but you can't predict the weather.
You see I started my journey earlier then I expected because I've met
you and I wanted to meet you as soon as possible.
My father can't help me to pay for my trip, he is lonely, my mom
passed away I wrote you. And he has to pay all expenses for my
sister's education...Please try to help me, you are my only hope!
I will wait for your help today!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will give the money back to you as soon as I can. I can't promise I
will earn all the money in 2 weeks but in 3-4 weeks I will give it
back to you. Nurses in your country earn very good money!
Please send it today by Western Union
I will write you details:
Send it to
Russia,
Moscow,
Margarita Makarowa!!!!
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 in Moscow is
Moscow, Dolgorukovskaya 16-11. I rent a small room in apartment here, it's
cheaper then hotel.
The address of the closest Western Union here is
GAZPROMBANK
NOVOSLOBODSKAYA, 23
Moscow, 127055
Actually they said you can use any address of their offices.
I have some money but it's not enough to complete my trip.
Please send me 990 dollars and I will complete my trip!
After it please write me all details about the transfer - your full name
and MTCN 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..
Sorry if I missed something or didn't comment please let me know
I was so busy with with all preparations!!!!
Now I take a look at what I have and I've done so much to get it... it
only takes one second to lose. I don't want to loose you now when I
became closer to you. You are so many miles away and you are still
right here, in my heart and mind


Your Girlfriend,
Margarita
