I met this girl on the Internet, in early June, her name was Tanya. (I assume)

we got chatting and eventually I fell in love with her and she

(allegedly) fell for me.

 

We exchanged a ton of snaps and she told me that she wanted to come

down to India in July to meet me. I was taken aback; as this was the

1st time I had fallen for someone. (I have had crushes in the past,

but I never acted on them).

 

I finally knew what it felt like to fall in love, It was awesome,

exciting. absolutely wonderful. To wake up every morning and to know

that someone out there cares for you is really great.

 

But I was not ready for her to come down, as I could not get leave. So

I told her that I would try and go there in August. She was very

excited and we made plans.

 

Unfortunately, getting a Visa to Russia even a tourist one is next to

impossible. I do not know why, too much of government red tape.

 

So she decided to come down in August (10- 15). I made all the plans I

booked the air tickets form Bombay (Mumbai) to a hill station (Ooty)

and the stay for the resort.

 

She told me that the tickets to India had gone up form $700 to $875,

which was a fact (I had checked that).

 

So being the guy I am, I offered to send her $300, however again,

issues arose. It is not possible to send money out of India even

through Western Union (I do not know why... Government Policy)

 

I tried 1000 options but none worked out, I registered on every

financial site I could find ...but zero luck.... On hind sight I think

I was really very very luck it did not happen.

 

So I told her and sent her regular updates on what was happening. She

said that it was a pity that she could not come down in August, but

she would definitely try and come down in December.

 

I was cool with that. then I cancelled all the tickets and bookings

for the resort. (lost a small token amt of $80)

 

but it was fine... then I got an email from her stating that all this

planning left her very tired and that she needed to take some rest,

she would go to some health resort for 10 days. I wished her all the

very best.

 

After two weeks I got an email from her cousin (from her email Id)

stating that she had bronchitis and was in hospital.

 

I was really worried and I send her a get well card. I got an email

form her a week later, thanking me for the card... she said that she

had just got back form the hospital and she was still feeling very

weak.

 

I replied that she should take at least 2 - 3 weeks rest and I asked

her to reply only when she was feeling better.

 

A month passed no signs of any contact... I sent emails hoping that I

would get some update...nothing, a month and a half later... I knew

that she was never coming back...

 

I wrote to a forum and they told me that it was a scam. and I was luck

to get away.

__________________________

I in 1st month of our alleged relationship I has sent her flowers

through some Russian florist. She wrote back telling me that she had

seen the flowers and teddy bear and would collect it the next day.

 

I did not bother to ask again and again if she had got them, it would

sound too weird. So I left it at that.

 

But after all this had happened... I contacted the florist in Russia;

they told me that she had never ever contacted them. She did not

exist… I cancelled the order and got a refund (about a week ago)

 

My heart was broken into a million pieces...I felt so deceived, and

really very hurt...
