I’ve been speaking with a Russian woman for months. I sent her $638 for travel agency costs. When she first left Moscow, she went to Helsinki and left the airport and was deported for not having the right passport.
She then went to court in Moscow and was fined $815. I paid those fines.
She then had a heart attack at the airport and owed $1400 at the hospital. The hospital took all her documents until she pays her hospital bill.
Am I being scammed?

At the risk of seeming insensitive, this feels a little like a setup. Are you serious?
YES, it’s a scam.
Clearly you didn’t read Ukrainian Dating Scams on this site. Your assignment: Go read that now… that page and every page it links to, and every page those pages link to.
And don’t send anyone another dime or pay for anything until you’re finished.
Actually start there, but after that, just read the rest of this site for more on how to go about this the scam-free route.
