I have been conversing with a girl from Ukraine for a month now. We talk on the phone almost everyday and she passes all the tests with flying colors. She says she's been with her agency for 2 months. And yes...I found her through Anastasia-International...okay, just let me finish...this morning I am making the decision of which apartment to get. She suggested a place a few days ago in Kiev called the "Stoneborne" or something like that. I looked into it, and although the prices were reasonable, they had only 2 and 3 BEDroom apts left.
so this morning she SMSs me saying that the agency told her that they talked to me yesterday about my reservations there! What the...???? No, I didn't . I don't know her agency and according to her she hasn't been in for a while to check her emails either. I paid for the big money phone call and she's off the agency (so am I). Of course, there is a little here that I'm not understanding because of the language barrier. What I did do was submit a written email request for room availability...is that considered a reservation?
she said that they knew me and they somehow KNEW that she suggested I look there at this particular Stoneborne place or whatever. By the way, she suggested this apartment through her cell phone SMS!
I explained that the only possible explanation is that she somehow told them that was where we were going to meet. Then they attempting to create some doubt that I am actually going to make the trip to see her therefore stay with their service. She DID say they were miffed at her leaving them so soon. So, she DID go in there to cancel...only to be manipulated.
Has anyone here heard of this???? i'm confused and if it's a scam, I can't figure out the end-game.
