--------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is a copy/paste from my gmail account. I recieved an email about a russian girl trying to come to my city and needed some friends. turned into her needing money for flight. i didnt expect it to be more than spam but just incase, i played along anyway. read from bottom to top i think.
i got an error uploading some of the pictures she sent me so i will have to figure that out. this collection of email correspondence should be enough proof though. oh, i marked my local airport as the territory.
im new to all this so if im doing anythign wrong, please let me know. also if im on the right track let me know as well. okay thanks for reading, heres my proof

Devon!
thank's for your reply so much!!! How was your New Year Holiday and
Christmas??? Hope that well!
I write you my emails from Internet cafe, I don't have my own computer.
have you heard a saying The older the violin the sweeter the music?!
I hope soon I will be able to come to your area and we will meet each other!
Today I will tell my parents
about you, I'm sure they will be happy that someone is waiting for me over there!
This time I will write you more about myself. I think you should know
more about my life and my hobbies so you will know if we have any
common interests.
First of all my full name is Alena Sirha. 24years old, not too
young I
think? My birthday is 18 February I'm 156 cm tall (5.2) and 54 kg weight..
I don't know exactly my bust-waist-hips measurements, I
don't have a reason to measure it because I think it's OK and my body
is proportionate )) I take care of my body, I do aerobics three times
a week and I go to the swimming pool twice a week.
I have a younger brother he is 15 years old, he studies in Military
school.
I love him very much, he is very brave and kind.
We all (me, my brother and my parents) live in two-rooms flat.
As I wrote you I live in Russa. The name of my city is Vorogovo,
it's near Krasnoyarsk city. Vorogovo is very small and Krasnoyarsk is
a
large city, the main city in our district.
I graduated from Krasnoyarsk Humanitarian University two years ago.
I`m a menager of the big shop, my city is small but we have a
big shop here. Sometimes I attend courses in
Krasnoyarsk so I have several diplomas,
but you know in russia we don`t have good work opportunities. But this work help me to take
care about myself. When I come to your city I think it won`t be a problem to find work on
my specialization (I shall work as the simple seller).
My mother is a teacher of music in the school. I also could play a piano a
little. I like classic music, jazz, rock, lounge. I like all kinds of music!
A little about my father: he is in a good shape because we usually make
exercises together, he doesn`t work now, because he is retired already.
I love both my parents and I'm happy my parents will be not alone when
I leave them and will go to another country. Of course I will miss
everybody but I want to have my own happiness!
do you have an International Airport in your city? please write me it's name an code.
or write me the name of the nearest INTERNATIONAL Airport to you.
If you want I can call you when I will be in Capital, it would be nice
to talk to you. We don't have international calls here. I suppose in few
days I will fly to Moscov and start my trip!
There is no any messenger in this Cafe so we can only keep emailing
each other. I hope you are not getting bored to read my emails?
My address here is Rus.Federation, Vorogovo, Polevaya street 8, flat 5, post code(zip) - 663248.
So now you have a representation of who I am....
I like to try new things.. :-) What do you think about my new
pictures? On one of them I am with my dog :) His name is Kuzya! :)
ok... it's time to finish my email. I'm sending a kiss by the wind ...catch my kiss !!
bye!
Alena
will you bring me the hat from your first picture please? just kidding.
sorry if i seem short on my emails.
i dont know what you mean real life because i hear that my city is different from anywhere in the world. living here most of my life only makes the crazy stereotypes become ambient to me. okay well if this is real we can meet and see how we get along. you dont want to work with food forever. in las vegas there is hundreds of jobs for pretty women to stand and promote companies and our company is one of them :P
where are you coming from?

Hello! Why you did not answer to me?? You did not interested? Just
tell me and I will never write to you.
Do you like my pic? I will be very glad to see yours pic! Can you send
it to me??
I would like to have a serious relationship although I don't know if
that's possible in Int. so I'm looking just for a good man!
it is my first time I try to correspondence with man in Int. world.
I want to see real life and it is impossible to see without
person who knows all sides of the life .......
I will wo rk abroad for three months or more.
Today In my country many young girls and guys also want to start a new life abroad, so
many of them used a special program for young people who wants to
work abroad. I also decided to do so and to use it. This program just helps to
register documents and gives suitable work in any state(town)of USA,
Canada or Europa (or other big country).
I just need to choose.I already started to register documents and now
I need to decide in which city I want to work.. I never been abroad so
I decided to find a friend abroad and make his
city to be my destination. I will leave my town in a few days or so.
I can't tell you everything exactly right now......
....I think that my e-mail starts to be too long ??? ok ;-)
I think that it is hard enough to live in foreign town without friends !But ...
I don't want to live in my country because I have not any chances here,it
is hardly possible to explain it by the first time but I want you to
know my plans. The forecast for my country in 2010 awful (war, mass disorders of workers on periphery,
Reductions of workplaces, Rise in price of the foodstuffs and clothes). It is very terrible.
The economic crisis will reach apogee...!
Im 24 years old and Im not af raid of work. I shall work in sphere of trade (food)
I think it is the right way for me!
I am full of plans and different dreams.
I have brown hair and brown eyes. I think I look very good, but
first of all I want to be beautiful inside.
I do hope that you will be not disappointed to meet me in the real
life if we will meet :-)
I would like to be sure that I have a man who waits for me there.
if you have any interest to meet me I will be more than happy to meet
you too. My be it sounds silly but I just don't want to be alone in the
evenings,and I want to be sure in advance that somebody waits for me!
OK, I will wait for your answer.
I hope I'm your type of girl, I'm not sure ....but....!! I hope so!

Formating bad, content very interesting.
Also, (a belated) welcome to the game!
If you have any questions, ideas, or random passing thoughts send me a message!
Hugs
Pixie

I like this a lot, as others have said, a bit of formatting (putting the emails from top to bottom in chronological order, using bold and linebreaks so we can see where one email ends and another starts) would make it a bit easier to read though.
Nice work. Keep it up.
posted by Devon Ruddell on August 19th, 2010 5:54 PM
sorry about that guys, i just copy/pasted the emails as they showed in my inbox. ill definitely work on it though. thanks Darkaardvark and dela for the votes. also thanks pixie for the warm welcome
I like this very much though it is difficult to read.
If you were able to get the emails to read in order this praxis would be a more enjoyable read.
