Koroleva Anastasia, part 3
T. says:
I got a response from my response to a bogus email you talk about here. What do you think is up with this? The email came from moscowlights.com where a name and password screen appears.

I can't say for sure how this one con works, but the usual scam in this case is an exchange of emails with that Russian cutie (who's probably some guy in a basement somewhere) and at some point you get some really cute pictures, you start salivating over the prospect of saving this Russian beauty from her hard life. At some point she says she would like to meet you but doesn't have enough money for her passport, or pictures, or visa... whatever, and you send "her" $50 (some amount in this vicinity). And then it'll be the money for the plane tickets, etc. Of course, you never get to meet "her".
The stories are plenty of people who fell pray to this type of con. Don't fall for it. There is no such girl.
