Two very attractive girls on RSVP & Yahoo personals, full details provided, (found surfing both the sites) as you do if single again & too much time on your hands! Q, If they scanned & emailed a copy of Aus Passport & KLM ticket would it still be a scam ?

I would say so, if you want to make sure, there is a comprehensive database that will let you know for sure.

Also, the minute any person asks you for money (which they "need" in order to travel to visit you, its a dead give away. These punks have claimed to have illnesses, needed surgery, or been trying to escape from an abusive employer or ex-lover. By the way, chances are that you are talking to a 400 lb. black man in your chat-room or dating discussion board. But check out that site anyway. Unfortunately, I have had friends and co-workers who have been fleeced by these sorts of internet scams and have chosen to help others avoid such trouble.
The people responsible for the crap will bleed people of their money and if they travel to meet them, they will kidnap them (or attempt to) and if successful, hold you for ransom until your family runs out of money. In some extreme cases, people have been murdered after their family's funds are exhausted.
About the Passport and KLM ticket, these people are notorious for sending forgeries to people. Either way, if you are asked for money, whether these girls claim to be from Russia, or Nigeria, its a scam.
Avoid at all costs buddy.

Most likely it's still a scam. Here at work we've kind of made a hobby of catching these scammers, and you'd be amazed at the lenghths that some of them go through to get money, and the 'proof' they're able to provide. One 'girl' kept my work mate chatting for months before she finally asked for money, and she even sent us her 'paycheck' to cash for her. It was immediately turned over to the FBI who determined it was a scam. If ANYONE in Nigeria, whether they're living there, or just there for work, asks for money, it's 99.9% guaranteed to be a scam. Be very, very careful.

It's probably two dudes sitting in Festac Town who scanned pictures of the best two Apapa hookers on fake passports in, and are trying to get money out of people.
