Paul to Irina

Hello Irina, You may remember me from a few weeks ago, and the discussions we had relating to Alesya Harcusha, who is now on Elena's Models ID 1377454, and who has had her profile on your site, Harmony Dating and Bridenet UK removed at various points for being a suspected scammer. I noted that someone called Cecil is currently unsure of her sincerity, and has been writing for your opinion on the subject, and I would recommend that anyone who is doubtful about her should be put in touch with me and I will tell them everything about her. The scam is, as you said one of morality, and it went like this: I arranged to visit her in Ukraine after several weeks of writing and telephone conversations. I was going to book into a hotel, but she recommended that she could book us a cozy apartment for my holiday. The apartment cost me $80 per night, plus a booking fee of $80, making a total of $1200 from a man called Max. I later discovered that this apartment is owned by someone else and is available at $60 per night, with a discount for booking over 7 days. So, Max had overcharged me and pocketed the difference. This price was negotiated for me by Alesya's stepfather, Andrey Piven, so I suspect he received a cut from this. During my stay Alesya paid for nothing, and I treated her to new clothes, new shoes and several outings, some of which included her sister Tanya, and her stepfather anbd mother Larissa. They ate heartily at my expense, and even suggested a celebration for our eggmagement - something that I suggested was a little premature as we had only known each other a few months. I did however, let her have the cost of an international passport, which she subsequently had made, and we were making plans for her to come to the UK. Then she went into hospital for a spinal operation, was out of work for several weeks and had her mobile phone stolen. I sent her money to replace this so that we could communicate, and on a monthly basis sent her money to save for her airfare. We were planning for her to be here for Christmas, but then I discovered that she had posted her profile on several dating sites, was communicating with several other men at the same time and that her profile was active when she said she was visiting her sick grandmother in the country. She is a very devious and cunning young lady who plays on her innocent looks, claiming to be a good Christian girl, visiting church several times during my visit. All in all it has cost me dearly to uncover her deception, and I intend to report her to the relevant authorities, so I would appreciate some advice as to how to do this. Who do I report her to? Lastly, please tell Cecil, and anyone else, to contact me about her and I will set the record straight for them. Many thanks. Paul.

Hello Paul, Thank you for your message. Yes, this type of scammers are the most clever ones. It is difficult to determine them and to proove that they are scammers to other people. A person comes to this realization only later, after time passes. Best regards, Irina

Hello Irina, Many thanks for your reply, and for posting my letter on your website. Please feel free to let people get in touch if they are in any doubt about this woman. Also, could you advise me as to where I should be reporting this matter? I just hope Cecil did not go to Kherson, otherwise he will be coming home with a lot less money than he goes with. Paul .

Hello Paul, I have contacts with russian police, and if she were in Russia then we could persue her. But she is in Ukraine, and it will be very difficult to prove that she is a scammer there. Maybe only if a private detective will be employed he can discover something about her that will help to put her to prison otherwise I doubt. The police will doubtfully can look at the facts that she was in the Internet when she told you that she is out of the town as proofs of her scam. I do not know what to advise you about this. best regards, Irina
