Greetings,

Your name is Lyubov? I'm Patti. Nice to receive your email. You are the first person to respond to my new profile.

Since you have already read my profile, I won't bother to go into my requirements again in this email. I do wish to stress that I ALWAYS pay well and I am always eager to be extra generous to the right person. Frankly, I sincerely hope that you are the right person. I have been disappointed in the past and I don't wish to go through that again.

As you are in Russia and I am in England, one of us will have to do some travelling. I believe that it would be perfect if you could come and live with me at my estate.

I trust that this will all be fine with you. Of course, I will need to know much more about you before I commit to anything. Please include any relevant information with your next email as well as some good quality photos. Then we can get down to detailing my requirements and your compensation for your services.

I would also like to be able to reach you by telephone. Please include your telephone number with your next email.

In closing I sincerely hope that we can turn this into a very wonderful business as well as a pleasurable relationship for both of us. I'm looking forward to your swift reply.

Sincerely yours,
__________

Finally, a reply. I thought this game was a write-off.

Hello Patti! I have seen you on a site of acquaintances and have decided to get acquainted with you.

I have never communicated with someone by the Internet and I don t know what to write, what will be interesting for you.

Well, let s begin from my name: my name is Lyubov. I live in Russia. The name of the town where I live is Cheboksary. It is placed on the north of Russia. This town is not big but it is cozy and beautiful. I am 28 years old, not married. I work a nurse in the children s hospital. What is your profession? I have black hair and brown eyes. My weight is 55 kg and my height is 168 sm. I am going to send you my picture, hope you will like it.

Please send me your pictures, if you have them. I got married in 20 years old and had 6 years of family life. And then unfortunately we divorced. And are you married, do you have children? If yes, what are their names, how old are they, what do they do in their life - I have no my own children. I regret about that. I'd like to have children, but it happened so in my life that I didn't experience the happiness to be a mother, but I'd like it very much. For my happiness, my job is connected with children. And it a little compensates lack of children's warmth. What is your attitude to children?

I like to read interesting books, especially novels and detectives. And I must to read medical literature a lot to be good specialist. Do you like to read? If yes, what do you like to read? And what do you like to do for fun? As for me, I like to go Cinema Theater and theater, to visit museum, and just to walk on the fresh air. I enjoy of meeting my relatives and friends. Unfortunately, I have no a lot of time and finance possibility to do that all very often. But I always try to find free time when my dear and close people want to see me!

Please tell me about your family. I live alone. I lost my father a lot of years ago and my mother died 3 years ago. It was very difficult for me to lose them and to realize that I am alone. I have good relatives and real friends, but all they have their families, but I am alone. That is why I have decided to try to find dear man for me abroad. It is so difficult to met good man in Russia. May be you have heard that a lot of them drink a lot. It is more awful illness than others. My husband drank and I wouldn't like to feel what it means to be a wife of man who drinks one more time. I just want to be happy as any woman in the world.

I have no my personal computer that's why I go to Internet cafe and use the Internet there. I am sorry but I won't be able to write you very often, I have no such possibility. I hope you will understand me and will not offended if I write you not so often as you want. O.k.!? I think I must end the letter. I was glad to answer on your letter. Hope to receive your answer very soon. Hope you will interested in communicating with me. I will very happy to get your letter!

Bye-bye!
Lyubov

P.S. maybe it is interesting for you to know where I studied English - I studied it only at school. I like this language very much - it is very simply and beautiful. And do you know something on Russian?

It almost looks like a legitimate appeal for a mate. Don't be fooled. This is a scam.

Dear Lyubov,

I am very happy that you have finally responded to my email. Thank you.

I do not have an occupation. My father has left me more than enough money that I do not have to work. I am not married and I do not have any children.

I can see from your photos that you are a very beautiful woman. I believe that you will do very nicely and I cannot wait until I can hold you in my arms. Can you send some photos of your breasts? I would love to see them.

Please let me know when you will be coming to England to live with me. Also, please let me know if you have ever done this sort of thing before. I would prefer someone who does not have any experience. Believe me, it is much more enjoyable that way.

I will be willing to give you about £850 per week as an allowance plus you will be living with me in the main house. Of course, I am a very generous person and you can expect to receive many expensive gifts from me as well.

As you have asked me to send you some photos, I have attached a couple of recent ones to this email.

Please reply to me as soon as you can and don't forget to include your telephone number.

Warm regards,
__________

Hello Lyubov,

What's the matter? Why won't you respond to my emails? If you don't like me then that's fine but I wish you would have the decency to let me know that and why.

I hope you'll get back to me.

This is not looking very promising at all.
