Ukrainian and Russian Women Scammer Blacklist – Stay Safe from Online Dating Scams

This is a database of women reported for online dating fraud — mostly from Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. Every profile was submitted by someone who got burned. Every entry gets checked before it goes live.

The Ukrainian scammer list started with Ukraine. It grew because the problem didn't stop at the border. Same schemes, different cities, different names — same result. You lose money, she disappears.

If you're talking to someone you met on a dating site and she's already mentioned sending money, you're probably already in it. Search her name or photo now.

How Online Dating Scams Actually Work

It's not complicated. She contacts you on a dating site or finds you on Facebook. Within a few days, she's writing long messages, telling you things she's "never told anyone." She wants to call you. She misses you already.

A few weeks in, something goes wrong on her end. Medical bills. A problem at the border. She needs to leave Ukraine, but can't cover the transportation costs. She doesn't ask directly at first — she just tells you what's happening and lets you offer. That's deliberate.

By the time you send money, you're emotionally invested. That's the whole point of online dating scams. The relationship is the setup. The crisis is the close.

Dating Scammers: What's in the Database

Three types of profiles end up on this blacklist:

The biggest group is pure fiction — a fake name, stolen photos, a scripted backstory. These dating scammers run the same identity across multiple platforms until someone flags it.

The second group is harder to classify. Real women, real names, real bank accounts — but they're receiving transfers for someone else's scam. Knowing participants, not innocent bystanders.

The third group is the smallest: real women running their own con. Some have been doing it for years.

A number of profiles also involve forged paperwork — a fake Ukrainian passport, a fake ID, sometimes a Russian passport scan. Sent over chat to answer the question, "Can you prove who you are?" The answer is always yes, and it always looks convincing.

These listings are based on user reports reviewed by our team. They're not legal findings.

How to Search the Blacklist Scammer Database

By name — type in whatever name she gave you. Fake names get recycled. Hers may already be in the system.

By photo — upload the image. The same face shows up across dozens of fake profiles. Our search will cross-reference it against known scammer photos.

By message — paste what she sent you. These scripts get reused verbatim. Word for word, punctuation and all. If it matches something in the database, you'll know.

Can't find anything? Write to us. We'll go through the full Ukrainian scammer blacklist manually, check her social media, and run an identity search — no charge.

Fake Profile Red Flags: What to Look For

A fake profile rarely holds up if you push on it. The photos are usually slightly too good — lighting, angles, consistency across pictures that don't quite match. The account is new or thin. She moved the conversation off the dating site within the first few messages.

Ask her something specific — a street she lives on, the name of her neighbourhood, what her commute looks like. Vague answers, subject changes, or suddenly bad connections are answers in themselves.

If she sends a fake Ukrainian passport or ID to prove who she is, that's not reassurance. That's a red flag wearing a suit.

Warning Signs You're Dealing with a Dating Scammer

Some of these show up in the first week. Some take longer.

She's saying things that feel serious very fast — love, future plans, you're different from everyone else. She wants to leave the dating site and move to WhatsApp or Telegram. She has a story that keeps developing, usually toward some kind of financial need.

When the ask finally comes — to send money, or just to "help" — the amount almost doesn't matter. It's a test. If you send it once, there will be a second time.

The warning signs aren't subtle. Most men who report scams say they noticed something early and talked themselves out of it.

Red Flags Specific to Ukrainian and Russian Dating Scams

"I'm trying to leave Ukraine" — this line appears in thousands of reports. Sometimes it's a visa problem, sometimes it's the cost of a ticket, sometimes it's a customs issue with her luggage at the border. The details change. The destination is always your bank account.

A fake Ukrainian passport sent over chat. Medical emergency. An agent or translator who handles communication and "helps" arrange the transfer. These are the standard parts of FSU romance scams and they've been running the same way for twenty years.

The scripts are this consistent because they work.

Avoiding Video Calls — and Why Video Calls Aren't the Answer Either

Avoiding video calls used to be the clearest tell. Now it's more complicated.

Some scammers still dodge them entirely — bad connection, broken camera, always something. That's still a red flag. But in 2026 a clean video call doesn't settle the question. Deepfake tools are good enough now that a live-looking feed can be faked in real time.

If you're going to use a video call as a check, make it unpredictable. Ask her to do something specific and unrepeatable on the spot. If she hesitates or the feed glitches at that exact moment, you have your answer.

Better still, use our identity verification. A video call is one data point. A background check is something else.

Romance Scams and the Fake Ukrainian Passport Problem

More romance scams now include document fraud as a standard step. You ask for proof of identity, she sends a scan. It looks real. It isn't.

A fake Ukrainian passport takes minutes to produce and proves exactly nothing sent over a messaging app. The same goes for ID cards and Russian passport copies. If anything, getting documents too quickly and too smoothly is itself suspicious.

Save anything she sends. If you're reporting a scam, include the documents — they help trace which network is behind it.

How Reliable Is the Ukrainian Scammer Blacklist?

Honest answer: It's useful but not complete.

Profiles that have been reported and verified are in the database. New identities, first-time scammers, and anyone who hasn't been caught yet won't be. That's true of every database like this.

Not finding her name doesn't mean she's clean. It may just mean you'd be the first to report her. That's exactly what the free manual check is for — we go through everything we have and tell you what we find.

How to Report a Dating Scammer

Use the Add a Scam page. You'll need a free account. Include whatever you have — her name, photos, chat logs, bank details, and any documents like a fake passport or ID.

Your details stay private. If the report checks out, the profile goes on the public list.
