Please be advised

Please be advised that another questionable marriage agency, this one believed to be in Russia, is attempting to de-rail the Firstdream express!

A competitor has gone to the time and trouble to secure the e-mail address  firstdream@yandex.ru  and with this e-mail address is sending out a rather stupidly worded spam message which is being signed with my name.

I believe this wacko company has read several personal ads of men that are currently being published in Russia. Those with an e-mail address included could be getting this stupid spam message. Also if any of you include your e-mail with your profile on this site you are subject to receiving this e-mail as the wacko reads Planet-Love (hey, guess their not all that stupid afterall).

If you get such an e-mail from this firstdream@yandex.ru maybe you should write them back and place an order to deliver 100 roses or reserve a three bedroom flat across from Red Square.

Jack, I have been a victim of a similar scam.
It appears that internet is a medium where anyone can be anything.

Mark, I think in your industry there is more class in your Russian counterparts compared to what I see in this industry.

Many of the Russian marriage agency's are scam (although there are several honest agencies) and have had a field day screwing us for the past several years. The American, and world, customer has gotten smarter as to these unethical agencies and as that has happened it has gotten tougher on them.

I think the increase of clients I have been assisting in Moscow and St. Petersburg over the past year has effected one competitor so much they have stooped to what they are currently doing now. In addition to this one agency getting the e-mail address firstdream@yandex.ru and sending out silly spams while signing my name, now they have acquired the name

In reality I am honored that these guys are having to go to these means. It shows me I am having an impact on there scam business. I just luvvvvvvvv it!
