Just when I thought that the spam in my inbox was getting boring, along came this email that raised me from the gloom of wading through mails promising Nigerian millions and ‘cheep drgz’..

Subject: Hello.Hello!
How are you? My name is Marina. I from Russia, city Kirov. To me of 28 years. I corresponded with the man from the USA before. His name Mark. He is from USA CA. We had a long correspondence and Mark wanted, that I have arrived to him in the USA that I have seen what life there. We have together submitted the statement on reception of the visa in USA!
Mark spoke, that will help my in our meeting. I thought, that have met on the Internet the love. I and Mark made the big plans for the future, but in a flash all has changed. From the moment of submission of the statement for the application of the visa has passed 5 months. For these five months there was for what I least waited. Mark informed, that his former wife has returned to him and lives together
with him. Soon they should get married. And now in Mark plans there is no me. I wrote to him some times after that, but Mark have wished me only good luck in the further searches worthy men and have told, that our roads miss. And in March to me there has come the invitation in US embassy behind reception of the visa. In the beginning I wanted to throw out the invitation in US embassy. To me it was sad, because my dreams were failed, I have nobody to fly in the USA. But my uncle have dissuaded me from resolute actions and have told, that else there is a chance to find worthy the man and to use the visa to a meeting with him. I well know English and practically I have visa USA. My uncle speaks, that it really solves many problems. On August, 22 the visa will be ready, and I should go to Moscow behind reception of the visa. I write to you because in my heart there is an empty seat. I do not search rich or poor. I search careful and responsible man which wants to have children and to enjoy a life together with me and children. Is this person you? I think, that I ask not much. I have told to you a little about my life. I have told not all about myself, but it will be easier to me to write about myself if you will ask questions which interest you. I have told to you the history, and now with impatience I shall look forward to hearing from you. Write to me! I shall send you more photo in the following letter. I wait for the answer.
