Russian Detective

A large group of individuals (both males and females) were arrested in Yoshkar-Ola on September 13th (a few days ago). The law enforcement conducted searches of several apartments and seized several computers. The females were all interpreters with good English skills. They were used for phone conversations, we have been told.

Police is trying to determine whether this group had any connection to another group of internet dating scammers that were arrested in Yoshkar-Ola several weeks ago.

Is there any way we can get a list of names, e-mail addresses, photos that these scammers were using? I especially would like to know the IP address they were using. Just would like to see if a few of our girls were caught.

If and when their names and other information will be made public, I will make sure to give you an update, guys.

BTW, Y-Ola Western Union has been rather empty for the last 2 months, but the scammers are now switching to MoneyGram. Please advise everyone not to use MoneyGram OR WU.
