Story: Met Olga on match.com and she claimed to be comming to the USA for training as a eye doctor. She writes and speaks well in English. She provided passport and airline ticket photos. Just prior to her departure time she claimed that the Russian gov. dropped funding for her trip, and she needed $2000 US dollars to travel. As time got closer she claimed to have borrowed all but $700 dollars. I checked out job placement agency she claimed to be with. It was a unlisted New York City number. No information was available from the BBB or New York department of State on a company called Health Care Professionals without Borders. Refused to send money and forgot about this incident in early 2007 until I checked out this site and found another report of this person and e-mail on file. also: Olga wanted money sent to second person a friend by the name of Sergey.
