Paradise of Angels Agency I met a lady through paradise of angels internet dating, from an ad that was placed on the match.com site and was contacted by the agency and the lady advising that papers could be processed for her to travel here within a short period of time and that she had already been approved for a student visa to the US. Processing money was required $1850, and after funds were sent she was in need of additional funds $1500 as required by US customs to depart the Ukraine to the US to show that she had support when arriving here in the US. This company gave me two reference individuals inside the US (NY & CA) who spoke to me on the phone and claimed to be very satisfied customers of this agency and that I would not have any difficulty with the transaction. I do have their emails, names and telephone numbers. I would have never considered sending this money had these individuals not spoke so highly of this business in Kiev, which makes me think that they had to be a part of this fraud. I have not been able to reach them or get a response from them since all of this has collapsed, despite the fact that I have left phone messages and emails for them. I have also not been able to get a response from the paradise of angles people through numerous attempts within the past couple of days via emails. They had indicated that the lady was confirmed on a flight to washington Dc yesterday April 1, and I waited for four hours at the airport and no one showed up. When I was unable to get any response from the agency that I sent the money to, I began to search the internet for their web site if they had one and found the scam alert site, in which I located the lady in question I was sending for. This is when I began to contact you for any assistance. The names associated with the Paradise of Angels internet club are as follows: Vladimir Orlova, president, Tatyana Perlotva, acct mgr, Valentina Fal (person who accepted western union wires) Pavel Alekseev, vice-president and oksana stolyarenko (lady who I sent for, email: oksana_117@hotmail.com The men who were given as references and who I contacted to verify the creditability of this agency were as follows: William Boyer, Brookyn NY 718 2884171, email: billyboyusa@hotmail.com and Timothy Felton in LA, CA 213-3040902, email: tfbusiness@yahoo.com. I am out a great deal of money. I do not know the reality of getting it back. So let me know as soon as possible. Thank you Anthony D
