Hello,

I am happy to meet you and i want to know you better.Guess now i have to tell you everything about me.I am an American lady,31 years old,my birth sign is Sagittarius,whats yours?Tall 5"10 ft,132lbs,single.I work for the US ARMY as a Nurse in Afghanistan.I was in UK for 16months on special duty before i was deployed here.I have a son,Les who lives with his father's family in UK.I lost my ex boyfriend in a car accident 14 months ago.I have been described as an open minded,intelligent,accomplished,warm,witty and balanced person.I am adventurous,possess a curious spirit,avid explorer and traveler.I enjoy films,trying different international cuisines, socializing,and sports(both participating and spectating).I am looking for someone whom I can share my interests,talents and passion for life.Prefer a man who is flexible.I believe being flexible is very important since life has many ups and downs.In a life partner,ideally I am looking for someone who is understanding,caring by nature,with family values,trustworthy,compassionate,fun loving,intelligent,hard working,supportive,warm,pleasant,unselfish,compromising and cheerful.Not exactly in the same order.Basically,someone I can talk to,laugh with, share my humor with,do things together with.Also,I believe understanding and effective communication is important for a happy and long lasting relationship.No one is perfect and I understand that.Look forward to hearing from you otherwise all the best in your search.I am a very nice person,who loves to learn about different people and their cultures.The best thing about loving and being hurt is that you get to know what true love really is.For as gold is tested in fire, and so will love be perfected in pain,Love, an emotion so strong that you would give up everything.To just feel it once,to know that you are part of something special.My friends say that I'm friendly,funny to be with...but I'm also a bit shy person (but naughty at the right moment) a little bit jealous of those who i love. I drink in company and with moderation.I am looking for a real and long term relationship..I like being independent and i hope you are not scared off by that.I like to be at sea atmosphere for spare time.I think now you got a rough idea who you are talking to,but please feel free to ask anything.Hope you will stay in touch and tell me something about you.hope to hear from you again soon,kisses,

Xxx,

From: Vanessa Bauer <[email protected]>

Thanks for getting back at me.Here are things you need to know about me.One thing i hate is hiding of feelings.Most people tend to get annoyed if they are told the truth.I don't like that.When you want to send me a mail,i want you to tell me more about your family background ..what do you like in me?Do you think that you will not hurt my feelings when i finally fall in love with you?Have you any experience of the internet dating?What are you actually looking for in the dating site?How well can you handle a relationship and as matter of fact have you ever been on any relationship before?Do you believe internet dating still works?What makes you happy and what actually interest you in a lady?Can you tell me a little more about yourself?Can you handle a long distance relationship?Tell me more about yourself.You should be able to ask me any question you think you want to know about me and will answer you with all sincerity.It will be very much appreciated to hear back from you and to know much about you.

Bye for now.

hugs and kisses,

Vanessa.

It is my very great pleasure to hear from you back,you really make my day with the lovely email you sent to me.One thing i want to tell you is we can achieve everything together if we both are not selfish.It shows that you are the kind of man i have been fervently praying to spend the rest of my life with.For me Vanessa,i like going to beaches,watching,movies shows,musical concerts and sometime go for dinner and taste a little coffee.To be candid with you,i don't have time for playing games around,it is very awful when someone hurts another good feelings.Well,relationship can mean two things.it can mean that we have a connection,which I think is something good in relationship.It also means to be romantically and sexually involved and I think we aren't at that level.So,I think at this point,given the amount of time we have e-mail one another,we definitely have a friendship forming based on some external and internal similarities that are developing into a relationship that will bring us a little closer with good intentions,and the potential exists for the relationship to evolve into something more significant.I've been in several rapports where I was not fully appreciated.In fact,many times I felt I was taken advantage of and that hurts.I will like to meet someone who recognizes the little things I do for him and knows how to be appreciative.For instance,if I were to make breakfast in bed or draw a bath for my man,he could thank me by giving me a hug or a kiss.Or perhaps sending me a card for no particular occasion just to tell me thank you.I'm very appreciative of what people do for me and Ill reward them in my own little ways.To me,it is the little things that mean a great deal to me.That was the way my parents taught me.What does it really mean to be passionate?I love a man who can display his passions for me anytime and anywhere without having to be shy.And a person who knows how to be affectionate is a big plus.I love being affectionate.I love a man who is not shy of hugging and kissing me in the public.I have learned that there are many guys out there that are set in their ways.They have one way of doing things and are never open to suggestions or advices.Obstinate men are a major turn off for me.I like a guy who is open to ideas,thoughts,and basically open minded.I think being receptive brings about sensitivity as well.A guy who is ignorant,meanand just plain and insensitive is difficult to get along with.I would say that I'm not afraid to display my emotions.I'd like someone who is sensitive and caring.If I'm sad,I'd like for him to be able to comfort me and cheer me up.He doesn't have to do much,but just knowing that he's there solacing me is more than good enough.Have you ever had someone not stand up for you?I was deeply hurt when someone I once knew wouldn't not stand up for me,even after he told me he loved me.I would never allow someone to hurt my boyfriend.and I would always stand up for him.One thing I will always do for my guy is to protect him.

Well,i hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely Yours,

hugs and kisses,

Vanessa.

Thank you so much for getting back in touch with me as it actually made my day!!!,you sound like all i want,you are my perfect match.I am really going to put a lot of effort into writing this letter to you in hopes it will provide you with a good understanding of who i am,and what has made me the person i am today. The reason I am going to write a letter rather than just send a message is because I am serious about wanting to establish a quality friendship with you, and because of the fact I rarely contact anyone on here, so when I do you can be rest assured I am serious about my intentions....I am looking for love and relationship that would take me to places,I am not getting any younger even though i am beautiful,but the earlier i settle down the better,So probably i should let you know that i am looking for someone serious.

Am looking for a man that will be able to listen to me,communicate his feelings to me,make me laugh,hold and comfort me in need,stand by my side, respect me,passionate lover in every way,support me in every way,love me and only me,make me smile,protect me when needed,romantic time to time,and treat me right....I know you will think what is a beautiful lady like me doing on here .. Yes the reason i came on to the internet to find the special person who deserves all the love and passion that makes up my heart and soul is because I do not have the time to meet others out in a public setting, and the fact I feel you can learn so much about someone through letters, as a person has to take there time and think about the words they want to express, so it allows you to gain a better understanding of someone than you would probably otherwise.I have never had any experience on internet dating cos someone introduced me to it and i am finding it a little hard,because with the few men i spoke to on the internet site,all they are interested is sex and taking advantage ladies.Probably i should hope for the fact that i am not speaking with yet another MONSTER of it's kind but really time would tell.

Dear The very reason I am interested in establishing a friendship with you is because I feel I have a lot to offer you in the way of a friendship and I know I have a lot to share with you that will be of interest to you and even some things that will surprise you. I am very much a woman of substance and I am very unique in today's society because I live my life through my spirituality and through the word of God and because I have such a strong understanding of what I feel my role in life is suppose to be.I am a woman of integrity and my word is my honor!.I have very high standards for myself and my life is all about providing love, peace and happiness to others.For you to get a better understanding of me picture a waterfall in your mind and instead of all the water overflowing it is all the love and passion I have in my heart to give to others who are deserving, as the love and passion has an endless flow coming out of my heart.

Where others write many people and keep there messages short because they are all about how many they can write, I am the opposite and very selective in whom I choose to write and I like to give them my very best even if it is in a long letter such as this. I know the type of person who I want to build a friendship with so I am willing to put the time and effort in my messages to show that to you.

How are you doing,i just got back from duty.How is everything and i must confess,i cant wait to open my email and actually see that you have words for me,this brings me happiness and it makes my heart melt so to speak.For how long can we keep this up,or is this just about head rush probably because we just met?Anyway,my own idea and thought of this is to keep it real and to get the best out of it.

I should tell you what i am looking for in a relationship is something strong and which a rare man can afford.Yeah i referred to some men have spoken to in the site as monsters because of the way they perceive things and actually what they want,they aren't ready to take their time and build a relationship,and even the worst part of it all is that,some think cos they have it all,always they can have every girl at their beck and call.

So far so good,you have proved me wrong and i am happy for this,and i think this is part of the gamble i have taking giving nature chance to transcend the chemistry between us if any actually exists.Well more about myself,i am the type of girl that loves cooking,i am a neat freak and not only when i expect visitors that i keep this real but all the time that i see there is need for it.

I would always cherish the smell of my man to be good and that which when ever i cuddle with would always want to make me come for more and all the time it would bring me joy when ever i perceive the smell,i don't like odd odor from either me or my man,Hummyyyy...... i am a very humble person,someone you can allow to be in the midst of your folks and they would really get carried away talking to me,i know how to relate with people and i have been complemented many times over and over cos of my sense of humor.

Some say internet dating is an avenue to get hurt and the platform in which ones heart could be toyed with,But i would like to let you know that it's on the trust and the focus we both shared that would power our wish of togetherness,i cant stand dishonesty,and when a man cant take some fervent decisions on his own,he is more or less a dead soldier to me,I need a man that believes in himself and who would always be open minded and be optimistic about any situation,not someone that gives in easily because he tried once or twice and it didn't work,i bet didn't work doesn't mean would never work.

Every girl desires passion,i am always drunk of that,every girl desires the will to be cherished,that makes me fly on cloud nine any time any day,every girl can't stand cheating,it makes my eyes change to RED when i find out,but one thing not all girl wants is,GOOD HOME,and a passionate man to be regarded as partner,which is what i am out for and what has been my great desire since i was a kid .

I don't know if my words are falling into the right side of your heart,probably you have been hurt before just like i have been,but yeah,i would always ensure that the word of my late father guide me,i would never allow a man make me hate all men,i hope that someday my better half is somewhere in the world,far or near,all i have to do is search and if it takes me many months to search and find,i guess i am ready for that,but i think there is no point searching,i hope you would be the man.LOL.

Still somethings i am shy to tell you,i wouldn't know how man enough you are to be told that,but if truly my juice is worth the squeeze,when i tell you that in my next email,you would understand and reason along with me,it's something serious which i think would be the bases of our togetherness if actually there would be any,i am not meant to scare you away,cos i believe so far so good,i want to have a relationship with you,

Anyway,lets set this on a lighter mood,how are you doing,how is work,how well are things around you,have you ever been alone and think about who this girl is?What do i actually want from her?Is she the one?Can she be my Sam and i would be his Frodo,just like in the movie,the lord of the rings?Hahahahahahah,i am sure your heart must have been filled with one of those,or maybe even more,you can share those with me in your next email.

Thanks for reading

Kisses,

Vanessa.

How are you doing,i hope good?I am about to go to bed now and i just thought of writing you a mail cos you have been on my mind since we met,I just want you to know that I very much appreciated receiving your letter every moment i check my mail.You are a very special person who I SERIOUSLY want to explore the possibility of building a long term friendship with.That is my dream, and I hope to make it come true with you!.In my heart I feel you have all the qualities it takes to make me very happy...It is very important for me to build a life of stability,security,and opportunity for the special person I hope to share my thoughts,feelings, experiences,dreams and fantasies with.

Buddy in me you are going to find a woman that is blessed with an over abundance of passion to give to the ones I share my heart and soul with. For you to really know me you will have to experience me, as the love that makes up my heart is like a waterfall, where the water never stops flowing down. In this case my heart is the waterfall,and the love and passion that flows endlessly is representing the water. I am a very unique person for many reasons, but one of those is the fact that I can never get enough of romancing that special someone.Where do you expect to be in the next 5years?what are the things you cant do without?What is you idea of a special date and what are you looking for in a woman?Do you see yourself as a determined guy or the man that stops trying when thing seem to be getting somewhat unusual?

Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to build this special friendship with you!. You will be rewarded for it through the passionate love that makes up my heart and soul!. I am so excited to be able to do what I do best and that is romance you with all the passion that makes up my heart and soul!. My special friendship with you is something I want to make permanent and eventually build into a relationship to call our very own!

Directly from my heart to yours!

Vanessa.

How are you doing, I just got back from duty now and thought of writing you cos you have been on my mind since we met.Oh,i am sure you are feeling flattered for calling you baby,hummmm yeah that is,i am in a good mood writing you this message and i think i should share it with you,anyway,thanks for writing me that message,i read it over and over,this is like a magic,cos i never thought we could come this distance even though we haven't gone so far.

You are kind of getting interesting to me,but not all men can handle long distance relationship.Well i wouldn't know what to say now,but till i read from you then i would know what other things to write ,but i am sure there aren't any surprises again that i am sure of.I don't know if i should regard you as my man,But i am taking you for someone special and i hope you are taking me as one,and i hope you can understand my being far away from you,but remember its just for a little while.

Let me get you in a lighter mood,hummm i love going out,i love cooking so much and i love staying in the room with my lover cuddling and watching movies,i love candle light,i am not an heavy drinker,i rarely even take any,i love going to the church probably because of the way i was brought up,i love sharing my heart with my lover and i love making love with my lover anytime,but point of note,the person has to be the man i love. I hope i can find the love in you with time,but right now,till our next message,i say your message brings joy to my heart,keep it up,bye missing you already

Regards

Vanessa.

How are you,i hope good?I just ate dinner and am about to go bed but i want to write my dear before that.Am happy you are interested in learning more about me,I have never dealt with anyone in the service,My goals and dreams are to live a good life,and maybe meet someone that believes in unconditional love.I've got a great sense of humor,I am more conservative politically than liberal....I work hard, and know how to have fun..Yep i believe in alternative medicine,life here is risky and terrible.my favorite perfume is Fifth Avenue by Elizabeth Arden and my favorite artist group is westlife

About my family its a long story to tell and touching that make me share tears whenever i remembered the past.I will keep this short,i came out from a good combination of two.I am the one and only child of my parent,i will count it,I have a big Family.unfortunately i lost my dad after he had a cancer surgery on December 2nd 2007 and lost my mom a month later cos she couldnt hold the grief.although i still miss my Mom because of the courage and advises she gives to me about life,I am glad i am whom i am today.I will count my family to be one of the royal family because when my mum and dad where alive they do treat each other in a manner of my King and my Queen,while i was the Princess.

I can cook pretty good for a guy...I like a good wine.I've been working out more regularly than I had been, and eat healthy food...I don't do drugs, and I like who I am..Although I think a terrific man would bring out the best in me...I'm a believer in God who pray every blessed day , am a good catholic , i do go to church weekly, and try to do the right things every day...I don't worry about what people think of me...I know how to treat a man well ...

You are really amazing.Inside of me there is a place where my sweetest dreams reside, where my highest hopes are kept alive, where my deepest feelings are felt and where my favorite memories are safe and warm. I find that you're on my mind more often than any other thought. Sometimes I bring you there purposely just to make my day brighter. But more often, you surprise me and find your own ways into my thoughts.There are even times when I awaken,I realize that you've been a part of my dreams. Then during the day,when my imagination is free to run, it takes me into your arms and allows me to linger there knowing there's nothing I'd rather do. I know my thoughts are only reflecting the loving hopes of my heart because whenever they wander, they always take me to you.. Only the most special things in my world get to come inside my heart and stay. And now, I realize how deeply my life has been touched by you.

I miss you.

Vanessa.

How are you today?I am sorry for writing you late cos the internet connection was shut down due to the jail break of some prisoners in the Afghanistan prison.It is a great pleasure to hear back from you.I would really like to meet you in person and i hope that we could have dinner together someday.Meeting someone in person is the best.I must confess to you is that your thoughts have been in my mind since we have started exchanging e mails but my main fear is that i don't know weather you feel the same thing.As i have already told you before,i want to spend the rest of my life with someone special.I feel its necessary to tell you some things i am going through now,my ex boyfriend's mom is fighting with cos her son willed all his properties to me,and he did this cos i borrowed him almost all the funds i inherited from my parents,and now she is maltreating my son...Honey i cant just wait to be with my son and you.It is not in my plan to divorce and i will never allow any guy to divorce his love except in confusing situation and which i don't pray for.I do believe that we will achieve everything in common if we both are understand and trustworthy with each other.

hugs and kisses,

Vanessa.

Hello baby,

Darling i am very excited to read from you and i just ate my dinner and had a shower. You mean a lot to me,so much even more than you can imagine,just as you have mentioned it,i never thought i could be feeling this great with someone i never met as well,this is like a magic to me,i enjoy reading from you all the time and this brings joy to my heart that we are getting along so well.

Baby,how is the day going over,what would it be ?Right now,you are the best company i would ever have in here,as i am so far way,it's just like you are sitting in the room with me and having that chat i wouldn't want to have an end with.

I never thought i could meet someone so interesting as you and this is like a dream come true,i only hope that your next email to me would reflect the fact that you are down with my been far away for the time been .All we need is just a little while and we would be together there after,and since we aren't planning on one night stand thing,i bet we still have a longer time ahead of us to make this work.

Lets just keep working on the mental aspect of our relationship till we meet very soon,i mean very soon, until then,i hope you keep it real,i need you more right now in the journey in my life as should you,bye for now dearie.kisses.

Yours,

Darling i just woke up and i didnt see anyone on the computer,and i just want to write you before taking my bath and getting ready for patrol.Sweetheart you keep chilling me up with hopes and thoughts of a future plans .At this very moment I am sitting here dreaming and fantasizing about how nice it would be for you to be near, where I could do what I enjoy most and that is being able to romance the special one I have in my life...It must have been a rainy day when you where born, except it wasn't really raining. It was the sky who was crying because it lost his most beautiful star, YOU!i will like to be part of what makes you happy,because your eyes are the gateway to the heaven i want to be part of it.Honey i cant just wait to hear your sweet voice,we will be connected 24hours after my commandant receives the connection fee.

In me sweetheart you are going to find the most passionate, loving and romantic woman you have ever met. There are very few promises in life but this is one of them!. ROMANCE is the key to my happiness and to my heart and soul!. It is the single biggest reason I am single today is because I have yet to find a man who will romance me with the passion of there heart and be a giver of there love, and not just a taker. I am a woman who is very committed to the special man I am sharing my heart and soul with. I totally dedicate and devote my life totally to this person 24/7, for he is my King and it is my belief that as long as he is my King, God would want me to treat him as such, by putting him on a pedestal that is reserved only for a King and showing him with an endless amount of affection, attention, passion, and unconditional love. It is my duty as a follower of the word of God to be his provider, providing for his emotional, mental, and sexual needs. It is my responsibility as his Queen to take any problems and stress that he has in his life and put it on my shoulders to free him of it, for I am a woman and his Queen!. My shoulders are bigger so it is my obligation to carry the burdens he has in life on them, allowing him to have a healthy mind, body, and heart and soul at all times. I love and cherish this role sweetheart, and it is because I love it so much, that I feel God has a role for everyone in life, and his chosen role for me is to be a excellent wife, mother, and family woman, because of the way I live my life, and because of my passion to be a great lover and family woman, in addition to the passion I have for children. I believe children play a big part in my life.

Dear you are really going to be in for a big surprise as you get to know and understand me as my words mean nothing compared to my action.

Your Angel Of Mercy.

Hi sweetie!I just got back from patrol and i am free for the rest of the day,i wish i was there to eat with you...Honey i hope you get us connected today. I didn't have the courage to approach you in person because of the distance between us, so I hope you consider my letter. I have so much inside my heart that it keeps me from breathing sometimes.Darling my daily routine is i go on patrol or to the clinic at 8am in the morning and gets back to my camp room at 5pm. I know we just met but these feelings that I have for you keep glowing and growing every day. Now that I am with you, I sleep thinking about you and the next morning I wake up smiling.Darling my best animal is Dog and its because it's friendly,my best food is rice and steak,i love the sound of a cat,my best drink is Budweiser and beverages, would like interesting and good things to happen.It's amazing how you got me and trapped me.Darling I am both logical and creative.I am full of ideas.I am so rational that I analyze everything. Intelligence is important to me .I always like to be around smart people. In fact,I am often a little short with people who don't impress you mentally.I seem distant but it's usually because I am deep in thought.Those who understand me best are fellow Rationals.In love,I tend to approach things with logic.I seek a compatible mate - who is also very intelligent.At work,I tend to gravitate toward idea building careers like programming,medicine,or academia.With others,I am very honest and direct.As far as my looks go, I am coasting on what I was born with.On weekends,I spend most of your time thinking, experimenting with new ideas,or learning new things. I never thought I could love this much but I was so wrong. I just thank God for having you. We are meant for each other and no one can change that. I love you with ALL my heart..

Love always,

Your Angel of Mercy.

My King,

Honey how are you,I am happy to read from you...I am feeling much better now and i really appreciate your love and concern for me...I am on break at work and just want to write you cos you have always been on my mind since we met.Perhaps you will be astonished for receiving a letter from me. I just want that a letter is more eloquent than words. That is why this will definitely speak for itself. I am a little bit confused on how and what to do just to eradicate you to know from my vivid mind your charming and beautiful face. The more time I spend with you the more I like everything about you and the more I want to find out all about you - how you think, how you feel, what your dreams are and everything nice from you. If I could only do something just to persuade you.Hunnie i wish we could be on vacation together,i would like to meet you soon.Honey i would like to apply for a vocational leave soon and visit you in Switzerland for some weeks so we could discuss more on our future.

Sweetie very thing I wish to do was left undone because of this unexplainable emotion. My admiration was still bubbling within me these past lonely days.Truthfully, and undoubtedly, I can fool anyone but I cannot fool myself. I would be a great liar if I uttered that I'm not in love with you. No matter what you think or say, all I can say is; I really love you with all my heart and I will not hesitate if you will give me just a little time to prove my feelings of endearment and to prove to you that I'm deserving of your feelings, from your heart.My son's grandmom is still maltreating him and i have asked his babysitter to pick him up and put him in her custody until i leave here,baby i would have process the claim of the properties before i can get them from the wicked woman.

My dearly beloved, you became so honorable in my eyes, like a precious gem, counted with extremely good intellectual reasoning makes me emotionally struck and speechless.I am very serious now in telling you that I can no longer endure such extreme anxiety and sleepless nights that I am experiencing right of this moment.Since the first day i read from you.... I felt I was living in a new and wonderful world, full of love. And the sun is brighter, the pastures became greener and everything I do was magnificent. You should inculcate and instill in your mind that "I cherish you so much". Such love, like everything, deserves to be given much attention and care in order to grow more and more.Honey i hope to get connected to you today and call you tomorrow...

Love always,

Your Queen.

If the fake connection fee is paid, the scammer will then try to steal more money by pretending that leave of absence from the army must be purchased:

Hello Darling,

How are you,i hope good baby?I am on break on duty and i need to write my love.Baby i am so happy you came into my life and its you i will spend the rest of my life with.Honey i like men that keep to their words,you told me you will get us connected and you did...I am so happy to have you...Honey for me to be able to visit you in [named month],you must apply for my vocational leave in [named month] and it will cost some money to buy the form,baby we have to do it quick so my leave will be approved.Honey i hope to call you tonight once our connection is activated.l am very happy since we have started talking on line.You will never understand how much i want to be loved again in my life,you will never understand how much i want to see my guy and i playing in the garden and i and my love looking at ourselves and thanking God for what He has done for us.But i am always afraid that i may never find a guy that i can live this kind of a life with.i have passed through a lot in my life and i always ask God the reason i have this kind of a heart and still living a very lonely life.I am not in a hurry to marry a guy though but i am very open minded and i have to tell you exactly what i am feeling.i want love and dedication,i want love and want to be faithful to my guy till death like my mother did.i have since allowed my past to go behind me forever but you must understand that i am still afraid and don't want what has happened to me before to happen again.i am pulling the wall i have built around me down for the first time because of you and i think God willing this will lead us into somewhere great.I have to go for now .

hugs and kisses,

Vanessa.

Here is an example of the type of email sent if the correspondent stops writing:

Hi, Baby, you're always lighting up my heart with the things you say.Honey i am worried i haven't read from you,are you ok?I feel so happy just being with you this way. You're my baby, and will forever be my baby. You will always be the love of my life, and please never give up, always have faith in yourself and you will gain the greatest gift of all, the gift of hope and love you righteously deserve.

.............., my sweetie, my lover, my friend - I want you to know how much I love you and why.....Thank you for acknowledging my thoughts and feelings whether they are positive or negative, justified or unjustified.. I feel safe to be myself knowing I can not be perfect and you will continue to love me.Thank you for the time you take to write me and telling me I am wonderful ...Those silent moments recharge my senses of appreciation for you.Thank you for written me at the right time... it shows me that you are genuinely supportive of my goals, which are such a part of who I am.Thank you for answering all my questions without criticism or impatience - you have shown me that my dream of a kind and considerate relationship is a reality. You motive me to expect and tolerate no less and to be the same with you and those around me. You have created calmness and safety in my life which I only ever imagined.

Every time I think of you my heart misses a beat. You're my theme for a dream! Every moment i read from you we grow closer. I'm simply hanging by a moment, waiting to see you so you can hold me so tight that all else fades; I thought upon the distance between us the feelings we had will fade away from my mind, but still everyday I wake up dreaming of our time together.I will never forget you. I hope you still think of me too. I love you with all that I am, all that I was and all that I will ever be. Please know that my love and I are inseparable and I would want it no other way and if time could express my love for you then it's forever and a day. I can't wait to be with you, see your smile, look in your eyes, feel your sweet touch, hear your perfect words and kiss your perfect lips. The way I feel about you some people call it crazy, some call it insane, but I call it true love.. I really love you.

I love you and only you and want you and only you - I could never have even imagined or wished for such a blessing when it comes to you and me being together and how lucky we are to be in love.

..........., Honey, I love you so very much and I hope this reassures you.

Love Always,

Your Angel of Mercy.

Hello guys, I write you from Barcelona, Spain.
I received several emails from "Sargent Vanessa Bauer" from a US Army base in Afghanistan. She has moved her email address from [email protected] to [email protected].
She told me that a "terrorist" have hackered her email address and for this reason she had moved her count.
I received several emails like you have shown on this web site, and she sent to me the same pictures. Please, don't believe her, because she is a scammer.
Remember: her new email name is: [email protected]

Good luck!

Hi
I am from Australia. Got emails from a girl claiming to work at sorting orphanages. They seemed weird so googled some of the sentences to see what came up. It lead me to this page. Most of the content is the same but she now calls herself Sheryl and works at relief work and in orphange set up.

Welcome Taipuha,

I'm glad you thought the check out the information before losing money! Scammers often reuse the same scripts (or copy scripts of other scammers) so searching as you did can be very helpful.

Could you please post the email address this scammer is using? Is he using the same photos?

So this girl started talking to me on MySpace. We messaged each other on there, then we started Emailing and then had a couple Yahoo chats. I actually started to have genuine feelings for her and was excited when she started talking about visiting. Then I got suspicious 'cause of things she said in the LONG Emails. Also the font in the Emails weren't consistent throughout (stuff we chatted about was in 'Ariel' and the weird stuff were all in 'Times New Roman').

So I copied and pasted a paragraph and it brought me here where I see the EXACT same messages almost word-for-word. So here, apparently she's Vanessa Bauer, and I found two others where she's Linda Desmond (http://www.stop-scammers.com/letter.asp?id=5556) and Anny Zion (http://www.stop-scammers.com/letter.asp?id=5015).

Mine was named "Angella Ibe" but her profile name on MySpace was "Stephanie Louis". Her story was that she was from Spain but raised in the US. Her father died and her mother re-married a new man in Saudi Arabia. From age 9, she was raised by her drug-addicted aunt in Detroit. And currently, she was in Nigeria for 9 months on a mission for UNICEF as a Registered Nurse. She said she'd return to the States on Jan. 18, 2012 and that she'll stop by my hometown before heading home to Detroit.

I didn't get any requests for money... But after finding these sites, I Emailed and called her out on it! We scheduled another chat session today but she never came online (and I doubt she will again). Discovering this was very disappointing 'cause I was actually planning out the weekend when she'd be visiting! >_<

This was the Email used: [email protected]
The MySpace Account: http://www.myspace.com/565675946
The person on the MySpace profile are the same in the pictures sent to me.

Being scammed (or ALMOST anyway) really sucks...

I' can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts, or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers. I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain, nor the future with its untold stories. But I can be there now when you need me to care. I can't keep your feet from stumbling. I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall. Your joys, triumphs,successes, and happiness are not mine; Yet I can share in your laughter. Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge; I can only support you, encourage you, and help you when you ask. I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from me. I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you. I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you, But I can give you the room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself. I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting, But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place. I can't tell you who you are. I can only love you and be your friend...I am also looking for someone who i can trust and share the rest of my life with and have a kids for him and make him happy

Hi,I'm Vanessa! Don't really know what to write about myself apart from I'm a lovable character with a great sense of humor. I have a lot of cute dumb moments and love to have a laugh.I'm a hopeless romantic that likes to have fun. I don't think that just because you believe in romance, everything has to be all sappy and mushy all the time. I definitely feel if you're romantically involved with someone you should be able to share your thoughts and feelings on an array of topics.I also feel you should live your life without regrets.You have to know in your heart that everything happens for a reason and everyone comes into your life for a reason. You may get hurt or you may find the love of your life, but no matter what, you'll learn about yourself and your partner throughout the process.
