Is this listing on Elena's Models a fraud or not?There are thousands of guys out there browsing Internet websites listing foreign women seeking marriage. There are tens of thousands of online ads of Ukrainian, Russian, Belarus women who’d love to meet a partner for a serious relationship. Are they real or fake?

Fraud vs. real

Most of men seeking Slavic women online have probably fallen victims of PPL pseudo-dating scams. These schemes are purposefully built in order to separate users through layers and build illusions, as opposed to genuine online dating.

However, Elena’s Models works in a completely different way. We have no desire to offer anything that is not 100% real and true. That’s been our motto for over 18 years. This is why we carefully and meticulously check every profile before approving it for publication on the site.

And while on PPL sites listings feature real people but relationships are often fake, on EM both profiles and relationships are authentic.

Elena’s Models listings

All profiles on ElenasModels.com are reviewed by a real human before approval. Our dating professionals check every picture that it’s not a copy from another person’s Facebook or VK, or a celebrity. It’s a standard procedure.

This is why it’s surprising to receive comments on the blog like these from a guy who signed as “David P.” (may not be his real name):

  • “Tatiana, 32 is already married to Richard. She is Larissa.”
  • “Julia, 31 is Miss Universe Ukraine, 2015. Google image match 100%. Anna Vergelskaya. Not Julia. Photo fraud.”

Yet, what David P. (or whatever his real name is) missed is the fact that the same side panel with women’s profiles is displayed on the pages with previously published stories about Larysa and Richard’s marriage and Anna Vergelskaya becoming Miss Ukraine 2015. Those are posts on EM blog. The same side panel changes automatically several times a week, promoting ads of new and popular EM members.

Elena's Models listings: Fraud or real?

Screenshot from Elena’s Models story about Anna Vergelskaya winning the title of Miss Ukraine 2015. The side panel with listings of women “Meet them today!” is on the right. (Click to enlarge)

The two women David accused of being a “fraud”, who are actual Elena’s Models members, would be legitimately hurt by such accusations.

Then such guys go on forums and dish out dating advice, stating they are “experienced”. In fact, they have no idea! They haven’t been successful in meeting someone. Vice versa, they keep failing. Thus, some of these guys been to Ukraine, Russia, Belarus multiple times. Lo and behold, they returned home single.

Should you listen to them? Absolutely not! (Unless you wish to remain a bachelor.)

Pause before launching into an attack

Think of the real people that you may hurt with your poorly researched accusations.

  • No, blonde Tatiana is not brunette pregnant Larysa, who is married to Richard from the USA. It’s a completely different woman.
  • The same about Julia. She might be flattered that you thought she was as beautiful as Miss Ukraine. But most likely, she would be shocked about someone accusing her in fraud. And definitely unhappy about you spreading such malicious rumours about her online.

If David checked additional photos of these ladies, which they listed in Galleries on EM, he would know immediately that he was wrong. But David seems to strive to find a fault, not a woman to marry and live happily ever after with.

  • Time and again, we see how men destroy their chances with beautiful women because of being overly suspicious.
  • Only scammers will be happy to jump through hoops; genuine women will feel offended and cut you off.
  • Even a suspicion that you blurt out will hurt her.
  • An accusation could put an end to this relationship for good.

Seriously, no one has to prove to you they are not scammers. People have little patience for suspicious types. Ignorance is not an excuse. It’s just one more thing that pulls you down and stops you from being successful and happy.

Are you a dating expert?

I sincerely believe that most of you, guys, are not any more experienced in finding out a potential scammer than our team of dating experts. Our experts have in total over 100 years of experience, accumulated working in this industry.

Detecting and removing scam profiles from the giant amount of applications is what we do on a daily basis. Every genuine dating site does.

  • From Nigerian scammers trying to get hold of westerners through dating sites, to PPL writers rummaging for new potential victims, we have to check all listings through a detailed vetting procedure.
  • With all the checks, it takes our personnel approximately 45 minutes to approve 1 female profile.

Not only that, we have special custom-designed sophisticated software that picks on typical fraud patterns and red flags any profiles that exhibit behaviours deviating from how genuine people act on a dating site.

Then the red-flagged profiles are investigated in detail by our specifically trained investigators, who are doing such checks for many years.

ElenasModels.com team of dating experts

Not only our specialists know every trick in scammers’ books, but they also have access to the underlying data, which you cannot see in the profile.

Each woman’s profile on Elena’s Models is connected to a real phone number. The person accepted a phone call from our personnel on this number, before the listing was approved.

In cases where a profile is red-flagged, we usually conduct a personal Skype video interview with the woman and ask her to show ID and other documents. The same procedure is followed if during the initial approval anything seemed out of place or raised questions.

It is our rigorous vetting system that allows us to say proudly that Elena’s Models accumulated the best and most reliable database in the industry of Eastern European dating.

There is no large dating site in Eastern European dating that has hundreds of thousands of vetted listings in the database and doesn’t charge per letter.

(You know what charge per letter means: A high chance of scam by paid writers.)

What to do if you have a question about a woman’s profile?

Send your question to Help Desk. You need to be logged into your account on EM.

  • Make sure you include all the details, which confirm your concerns.
  • Such details include: Facts in chronological order, screenshots, copies of messages.

We have ZERO tolerance to scammers. In an unlikely event that a non-genuine profile managed to make it through the vigorous screening protocols, members inform us pretty quickly if something seems off.

Inform us immediately with any concerns; we know how to check it and what to do.

If there ever was a legitimate Russian dating site, then ElenasModels.com fits the definition perfectly.

And if you do not trust that we offer you a genuine dating service and contacts with authentic Russian, Ukrainian, Belarus women, who are ready to move countries, then go to a place that you have confidence in.

Life is too precious to waste time in suspicions and uncertainty. I am sure you’d rather spend it with someone you adore, who loves you back.

Matthew,
The biggest concern of women on Elena’s Models is not potential fraud (ladies don’t pay), but how serious are men’s intentions? Is he going to just waste her time on online chat and correspondence–and never arrange a personal meeting? Does he realize she cannot just buy a ticket and fly to join him as a wife? Isn’t he a sex tourist? (See: Russian brides horror stories) Unfortunately, you cannot screen for intentions. Most men who are “not serious” as women put it, simply cannot afford to bring across a foreign wife.

people in America take privacy very seriously. so making them verify. is away to show sincerity. I studied the phrase sex tourist in 2008 when I decided to go abroad for a partner. that put the brakes on it for me. I seriously didn’t wanna be single past 32. I was 33 in 2008. and now 42 and still single. and yes they American women have gotten worse. many of us consider them updateable. I travel all 48 states in my career. there’s not any difference. some place the American women are worse, other places they are better. in my… Read more »

thank you for the chance of that! in order for me to tell my story. I would have to tell the story of American men. and the truth about why 90% of them are here looking for love. and why they get rejected so much by foreign women. and the up bringing of American men. which is a very disturbing and humbling story to tell. which in turn will help foreign women fully understand why American men have the traits they do.

Hi matthew, that’s an interesting point of view, but you are talking in general terms, and what we are looking for is a personal story: Why did YOU decide to look for a foreign wife? How did you find yourself here on Elena’s Models? What do you hope to find? More personal. You may not know the motivation of every man who decided to find a bride in Russia (Ukraine, Belarus, FSU, etc), but you definitely know what events happened in your life that prompted you to make this choice.

that story is partly wrote based on the book no more mr. nice guy. wrote by dr.robert a glover. it’s humbling to know that about my self. I also wrote it based on what I seen in 42 years. the story is in a general view. as I am changing my life’s paradigm. I came to a T in the road with no signs. so when I took a look back learning about why I was so unhappy with my life. miserable is about right. so I decided to come back to eastern Europe to view a few profiles. it’s… Read more »

Matthew, Don’t you think you would learn much more by talking to actual women who live there? Without the need to pay $200 daily for accommodation. Going to Eastern Europe in order to “meet a wife properly”, i.e. without dating sites, is a myth of perpetually unsuccessful men in forums. They have grown up to be so weird, they cannot be normal anymore and any decent woman runs for cover when she meets one. You cannot meet a woman to marry through traveling Eastern Europe. Because they see you as a “sex tourist”. If you don’t like dating sites, go… Read more »

same thing here. I never travel for romance or for women. always for the trip its self. and to see the country. in that I keep a simple rule in mind. “don’t mate with the natives” and everything will be fine. I have traveled for 35 yrs. or since I can remember. that’s a top rule I was. I’m done in this site. I like the updates to it from the 2008 version. and thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

matthew,
I thought you said you wanted to find a wife. If you simply seek to travel, it’s different. Elena’s Models is a dating site for men and women who seriously want to find a partner and do it quickly and efficiently. Basically, a place to find a committed partner, for those who had enough of the dating scene and just want something serious now.
Enjoy your trip!

It’s very good that Elena’s dating site doesn’t charge per letter or per minute, and all communication is free. When I was a student, my roommate worked as a fake bride for a PPL site. Her purpose was to hold a man “on the line” for as long as she could. I really feel sorry for these men, who wasted their time on such senseless talks and paid money for that.

Every profile is connected to a phone number: IS IT LAND LINE OR CELL BURNER PHONE?

:DROPS MIKE:

I only trust LAND LINES, not CELLPHONES.

HELL I CAN SEND SMS MESSAGE THOUGH the internet without a CELL PHONE SMS SID CARD?
But you can’t send a SMS though a LAND LINE? RIGHT?

BTW, I personally don’t use a land line. Neither my friends and family, not even my parents-in-law 😉 Genuine people use the same mobile number for years. And any new SIM can only be activated with a photo ID.

Dating Slavic, Russian, and Ukrainian women in a multicultural and international environment that we share today is far from a mail order brides operation, but is an open and transparent experience of people from different locations connecting and sharing their ideas, thoughts, common goals and aspirations, without prejudice or borders. This blog allows you to learn more about modern life in countries of the former Soviet Union, including Ukraine and Russia, which is, most likely, very similar to what you are used to in your own country. In fact, you have more in common than you probably think.
