    Zvenigovo - Russian city. I recently joined matchdotcom and got a reply from "singlesveta" - very quickly "singlesveta's" profile was no longer available at matchdotcom. Sveta sent me an email address, guess, yes "singlesveta" at gawab.com. The thing is I was not aware of any problem - she is 26 and I am nearly twice her age! So what! I thought. Anyway I looked up Zvenigovo in google and there it was, reported to be part of an area infested by computer crime. So I looked up gawab.com in google and that is how I got here :) Sveta sends me beautiful letters and wonderful photographs - albeit she is most often looking very unhappy. No matter how often I "complain" about the age difference - she is as kind as ever. I expect to get the forth letter this evening. I even put one of her many pictures as my desktop - dumb or what? But, if it had not been for this forum - who knows, I might have been a few Norwegian Kroner out of pocket (not that I have been asked for any money - yet). What do I tell Sveta this evening? No need to answer that, thanks.

    I get frequent spam posts by these guys. They use a bot to do it! There is an anti-spam mod out there also!

    I received an e-mail from a gawab account -
    did a google search and found this post.

    I should have checked DP FIRST!!!

    Thanks - you've helped me stop a bad thing in it's tracks!
    :D
