Emerging Trend: Russian Scammers Masquerading as Ukrainian Women
Life is in a constant state of change, and this applies to the world of online dating scams as well.
Recently, we have noticed an interesting trend. We checked several Ukrainian passports for our clients and found that the photos depicted women from Russian who have long been involved in fraud.
Why is this happening? It’s difficult to determine the exact reason. However, it is suspected that this presents another opportunity for love scammers from Russia to profit. Due to Russia’s war against Ukraine, a common tactic among fraudsters is to deceive individuals into providing money to escape Ukraine and relocate to be with a man.
Apparently, Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine has negatively impacted Russian women. Fraudsters have taken advantage of this situation by pretending to be Ukrainian women trying to escape the war.
Let’s take a look at a specific example.
The client provided a Ukrainian ID card for verification, but our investigation revealed that the document was fraudulent. We then conducted further research to determine the identity of the individual in the photograph.
As it turned out, this was not her first fraudulent experience. For instance, her pictures and instances of duping men on dating websites are visible on a well-known German anti-scamming platform.
There, she is known as Khrystyna. Additionally, there are bank details for sending ‘help’ to a Ukrainian bank. It is evident that she has one or more accomplices in Ukraine.
It was discovered that this individual possesses talents beyond pretending to be a Ukrainian refugee. Furthermore, numerous photos and videos of her as a webcam model can be found on the internet. By the way, we excel at identifying webcam girls from Ukraine and Russia.
There is much more to write about her.
We managed to find her personal information.
