Contacts as a Russian girl interested in visiting Australia. Sends many pics to tantalise, and publishes that she is getting / has gotten a visa to come, but there is a snag - she needs more money to pay for the tickets, and a sister (supposedly lives in Orbost, but works on a sailing/cruise ship) cannot do EFTs the normal way...so, she asks for you to handle a transfer through your back account to hers!
She also sometimes asks for a phone number to call; I gave her a \'burn\' phone number, and while she claimed to have called it, there were never any missed calls on it.

This is thought to be a money laudering scam under the guise of a romance/dating scam. Yana or Sandra is not hard on the eyes, and she sends a lot of pics. I also coaxed a pic of a \'passport\' (probably fake Australian) from her; funny that...why she needs a visa to visit if she has an Australian passport(!)... this passport and a lot of her pictures are on the following site:

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
