A russian girl contacted me... or did I contacted her first? Don´t remember! D´oh! Well, the thing is that she will como to London, she want to find a better life here.
She told me an agency in her country will give her a visa to work here. But she is also looking for a guy, her second half.
In the third e-mail she said that the agency need my address.
Why? I mean, if the agency can help her to find a job here, why she need my address? The agency most have a lot of hotel, hostel addresses!
What if i give her my address? When she arrives here, can inmigration call me to check about her.
She sounds serious about finding a better life, better job and a boyfriend. She knows I am not from the Uk, nor the E.C.
I am real with my feelings, does she? Is this weird? What do u think? What can I do? Should I ask her mor ethings about her? Waht can of question can I make her? THANK!

Try getting a section of one of ther letters, then put this into a search engine. Chances are you will find that your letter is a spam letter, sent out at the rate of thousands a day. There are sites warning the unwary about these scams Try this link here:

I've had those letters myself, it was somewhat obvious once I received the second one I WAS NOT TALKING TO A REAL PERSON. So I decided to wind him/her up, and sent an address of a homeless centre in Glasgow for my contact details. The final letter I sent had the above link - with the same series of letters they sent me! Only the names of the "girl" and the recipient were different!
TELL THEM NOTHING!

giving your address is not that big of a deal just as long as you do NOT sign any papers, this may turn out your to be your best friend or future loving wife there are many that come out of Russia with only one think in mind to better themselves at any cost having you for a friend may just save this gal many heartaches in the future in strange country or anyone abusing her, Pal give it a chance i would ask her for her home phone number NOT cell and call her to see if she resides there if after the second try give it up as fraud one other think Russia will not let out of the country unless she does have a valid visa and the agency to make sure wants to provide additional support in giving your address so she don't end up on the streets

To start with do you not find it just a TAD bit strange that you can not remember whom made the first contact?
That is some really strange stuff my friend. I would sincerely hope that you are not in anyway entertaining the idea of having anything to do with this situation.
Are there no girls where you are that you would put yourself in such a strange situation that you are willing to risk who knows what? Have you actually ever spoken to her on the phone? How do you know it is not some man sitting someplace running a knock of one of those Nigerian scams?
You need to run and fast. You are about to get into something you may never get out of.

You shouldn't give a stranger your address. You are asking this because in your heart of heart, you already know that it is a dangerous thing to do to yourself. Don't assume that because you're a guy, you're safe. You don't know the true identity of this girl, how do you know she's genuinely just an ordinary girl looking for a job and a boyfriend? Don't get yourself into a tricky situation. The world is full of people who take advantage of other's good will.

do not give "her" your contact details i have emails all the time from russian women sayin they are pretty lookin and are coming to this country and want to meet you. its prob safe to say u neva contacted "her" in the first place bt "she" contacted you this is a clear scam that will not only land you in trouble with the law but also the ppl that are most likely bringin "her" over here just delete the email and resist the urge to contact that address again
Good luck
ps go out and find yourself a nice british lady who will not use you to get a visa/passport and then freeload of the entire uk

been there, done that, next she won't be able to afford to get here herself and will need your help. It's a con trick to scam money out of you. Give her a false address in case, if she never asks for money and is genuine she'll understand if you explain that the address isn't real, but given the current political climate you felt insecure about divulging your address to someone you hadn't met, she'll just be greatful you met her. If it is a scam you have no real connection to it.

when she applies for her visa they will want to know she has an address to come to in the UK, it might well be that she thinks, as you contacted her, that you are wanting to be her boyfriend, and is looking for a husband to get her a British Passport.

well......ask her more questions ....like if she knows why the agency needs ur adress and more about her! it is kinda weird but u have to be careful u never know something bad can heppen! if u really trust her then u should ask her what ur gonna do like plan it. ask her about her agency and see if u can give them ur adress but be ABSOLOUTLY SURE that u can give it away! if u dont trust her that much then dont give her agency ur adress in case some one is actually just pretending to be her agaencyn just wants to kiddnap u or some thing. just be care ful what u do....

Stop all contact with this woman.You are being used in an immigration scam,do not give them your address.
The Russian mafia is very much into this sort of thing with women.They buy and sell women and use them to trap men.

why she wants your address ? you just meet her on Internet and you don't even know this person. Definitely you should ask her more questions as you might probably get yourself in trouble by your "kindness". ask her is there any other way you can help except providing your personal informations..
