You have probably heard all the stories about Western men being scammed out of many thousands of dollars on Russian dating sites, the media, press and internet are full of these stories. The guy who sent Olga $20,000 by Western union after a few hours conversation in some Russian dating site. Or the guy who went to meet tatyana in moscow and landed up shopping all weekend for diamonds and gifts, only to arrive home out of pocket and no where nearer to finding his perfect women.

The problem 95% of the time is guys need educating about Russian dating sites and the chances of becoming a scam victim. Educating guys about this is nearly impossible , for example trying to tell a 65 year old guy that 22 year old Anastasia , a super hot model looking girl is only interested in extracting cash from his wallet, and has no interest in him whatsoever. It is very hard to resist the chance to date with a young women half his age and often he will not like being told the real truth of the matter.

One major point of education is for guys to do some serous research on Russia, Russian culture and modern Russia today. So many guys sign up to Russian dating sites with the wrong asumption that Russia is some poor backward country and every women is trying to escape the place, to do this they will marry any guy of any age in any country. It is surprising how many Western men still think Russia is a milatary zone and you are not allowed to even take photos in the country. Russia has come a long way in the last 20 years most Russian women in the cities hold down good jobs and have a middle class life style, turning up and flashing your passport about today will work with any Russian women, actually they will probably just laugh at you.

If you really think you can sign up to a Russian dating site and within a week visit Russia and return home with your perfect Russian bride, you have a lot to learn.

Of course it is still possible to meet a Russian bride have a relationship and get married, many thousands of men do this every year. But in todays modern world you are going to have to work alot harder to win the heart of a Russian bride.
