ANASTASIA IS A COMPLETE SCAM!! you are writing to a girl at $8 a pop, and $8 to open the letter. and than how do you feel when you spend about $600.00, and after that you find out she was a prostitute?? check id ..... from Odessa Ukraine. you are really fooled because she really looks like a classy lady. classy, as in high class call girl. google her birthdate--1982 and her complete name (you have to read russian and google it in russian) C, E---"cover model' odessa passage magazine. it's a nice term for a hooker, a prostitute, etc. and she is still not blacklisted!!
I tried Anastasiaweb 4 years ago when I was younger and more foolish (Now I'm just older and still foolish it seems) I got bombarded with letters and talked to a few girls, my letters never made it past 4 or 5, then she would vanish completely. Also I wrote back some girls who sent me intro letters and they never replied back to me making me suspect that the lady was not sending the letter to me. I tried it for a couple of months but after that time I had nothing to show for it and then I gave up, it's a joke. That site was designed to remove your money from your wallet very quickly.
I still like to go to it sometimes just to look at all the young Russian eye candy :-) But I wouldn't use it again. I tried an experiment with them recently, I signed up to them, gave them no photos of me and no information about myself at all in my profile and guess what? I got letters! Why would any girl send a letter to a guy who has no photos of himself and no information about himself in his profile? Agency has to be sending them not the girls. What a bunch of crooks...
only one thought: anastasia and similar sites get you men by the balls:) tell me how much you have you already spent writing to this glamour photo girl? 1000+? it is 3 year membership on sites like fiance.com... or any othe conventional dating site. have you talked to her on the phone?
You have a point Olga. I just wish you could convince some of their agencies to join yours...
Until you do, I got one girl I like writing on there. ;(
Maybe I will have good luck using Fiance. There are a few girls I might like writing to here as well. Who knows.
Because even if you do write (at whatever price) and you do decide to meet. There are still no guarrantee everything is going to be wonderful. Girls rarely look like their pics and then you got to worry about if she's stuck up or how they really behave in real life.
I don't think I came near spending $1000 on correspondences, maybe if you add flowers and all letters I sent every girl for the entire time over a year... I bet I could blow through a $1000 easily on here if I were to write, call and send flowers. So money is not as important to me -- finding true love is where it's at. :)
Apal...your girl on anastasia , if she IS a girl probably make pretty good money on you and any other guy she writes to( hope you do not think you are only), on pay per letter, the cut must be pretty good...you I be wrong to say she writes at least couple times a week!!! And you talk about the golddigger from Odessa, is this girl a scammer too???
Has anyone been able to request and receive refunds on payments made to Anatasis International after one or two emails have been read. I paid these guys the $250 amount for reading and writing and like most of the posts in here, I realized that the girls could not have written those letter - Not so many, not so beatiful, that's for sure - I didnt even have my picture uploaded and I had received upwards of 200 emails.
Please let me know if youve received any refunds..
Yeah if you got credits left you can. But if you want to dispute what you already spent them on... I dunno...
I could probably dispute 8 letters I just wrote/read with them, because the girl admitted she wasn't serious when she joined the agency -- so why the F was she there?
Counter argument is that all she has to say is she is serious now... geezus...
I signed up to AW recently as an experiment and I notice that most of the intro letters I'm getting are all coming from Nikolaev, Odessa and Chisnau (Moldova) there are also a few from Moscow, Sumy and Mariupol too but really no other places at all. I think Odessa and Nikolaev have probably the most dishonest agencies going right now it seems. I even talked to a girl on Fiance.com awhile ago that was from Nikolaev and it turns out she was never real! So this is just proving my point I think. Especially since that city (and Odessa) are crawling with 18 to 22 year old bikini clad gorgeous babes all over the FSU marriage agencies on the internet. I really find it hard to believe that these women and the agencies that present them are sincere and legitimate at all.
Sound like a reason to go to Nikolaev and find out for sure exactly what is going on there!!!!!!!!!!!!:)))
I did same thing on Global Ladies(2 l's)and in first couple days I got 10-15 letters from girls, of course they are all from same city( site is in Kharkov). It does make you wonder!!!
Ya Beemer I have to admit these ladies look good that's for sure! I love to look at their pictures anyways. :-) But there is something strange about the whole thing to me.
It seems that AW needs fighting funds, possible for their impending court cases.

You know, I read those complaints. They might have a case on that lawsuit. I agree 100% that some girls are not sincere about marrying a foreign guy. Pretty girls make a little extra money coming into an agency and writing to men...
Wrote one girl the other week on AW and she admitted she wasn't serious about the entire thing... speaks volumes.
i need to send some info of warning, guys - I know this is not the topic, but BEWARE OF ANASTASIA-WEB.COM !
They are a pay-per-letter agency. I wrote to a number of girls. They respond, write, keep the chat going, UNTIL you show up in Ukraine or Russia. Three girls who were "interested" in meeting me finally did not at all when I was in Odessa, Ukraine and near Moscow, Russia. I paid for the letters, then the phone call (only way for them to give you their phone and email), then when I called them, they did not answer or made excuses. Then (this is the fraud clincher), after I left, and they know I left, they started writing to me again, hoping I would write back to put more letter commisssion in their pockets!
STAY AWAY FROM ANY AGENCY THAT CHARGES PER LETTER. THE TEMPTATION IS THERE BECAUSE THE GIRLS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL, BUT THEY ARE PROBABLY NOT THE GIRLS IN THE PHOTO. If you wanted to make money from foreign men, wouldn't you send fake photos to an agency, with your phone number, then write to these guys? Maybe it is the girls' photos, but they are not genuinely interested in you.
I recommend agencies that are monthly fee for writing to the girls, and the girls can give their emails to you via the web service.
By the way, I spend a few hundred dollars with Anastasia and I am going to demand my money back.
