Obviously, Cesar should have used: https://checkyourbride.com/ For all your Ukrainian mail order bride checking needs.

I believe he has videochatted with her so she is definitely "real," she just has no intention of meeting him. It's also possible that she subcontracts out the tedious task of exchanging messages with him to an ugly woman (or man) and that she the pretty lady then shows up to this Ukranian "boiler room" full of scammers, computers, and phones only when necessary to create a video message saying "I love you baby" that is then sent to dozens of Cesars. He has tried to meet her multiple times before and she always cancels at the last minute and then asks for more money to buy a new plane ticket. This is a textbook "advance fee" dating scam that the US Embassy specifically warns Americans visiting Ukraine about: https://ua.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/victims-of-crime/marriage-dating-scams/

The USA doesn't ban its citizens from visiting Syria. No US consular officer or law enforcement officer has any lawful power to stop her from going to Syria. Some Europeans are visiting Syria as tourists these days, much of the country is safe. However, Syria basically isn't issuing tourist visas to American passport holders, and hasn't for the last 1-2 years. I've looked into it myself. Whether she can get some other kind of visa to move there or marry him there, I don't know.

If any of you want some mid-week entertainment, I encourage you to watch this very real documentary "Love Me," about middle-aged American men who seek young Ukrainian mail order brides.

Russia and Ukraine have a disproportionate number of women online playing the love scam game. It works the same way the Nigerian prince inheritance scam works. The scammer promises the mark millions of dollars from the inheritance but you just need to send a little money first for taxes, then for customs, then for administrative fees, then some surprise comes up and you're so close to getting the millions of dollars but you just have to send a few hundred/thousand more. Of course, the inheritance does not exist. The beautiful Ukrainian bride also doesn't exist. Maria may exist, but she has no interest in ever meeting Cesar. All that a Ukrainian love scammer wants is for the man to send her money every month, and send her money for plane tickets, and she'll come up with excuse after excuse of why she can't meet him, like "I missed the flight" "Immigration problems" "There's a war," etc. They never meet the guy, they don't want him coming to Ukraine and messing up their shit. If this particular scammer meets Cesar it will only be because of this TV show and the potential windfall from appearing on it.

I will add that I think there's no way that while Evelin and Corey were "on a break" her American ex-boyfriend just happened to visit Engabao without her inviting him. Engabao's not the kind of place someone passes through and then bumps into an ex by accident, like a chance encounter at O'Hare on a business trip to Chicago. You have to have a reason to go to Engabao. She must have asked the guy to come. Speaking of backwater Latin American villages, are there no houses for rent in Tonatins priced between $260 and $1100 a month?

He's been coming and going to Ecuador for four years and he still says "Mi nombre está Corey" which anyone who has studied Spanish more than about two weeks would know is wrong.

It's the danger of having Facebook messenger notifications on your phone and then letting your boyfriend hold or look at your phone. Because a guy you have been messaging days or hours earlier can suddenly send you a message that pops up. Speaking of which, have we discussed that the cast members never say "Facebook" they speak of contacting each other or other people on "social media." That's always signal to me that things are kind of scripted because no one really talks like that.

Some countries just have very high taxes on fees when importing a car and only allow the importation of new cars, not used ones. https://gringosabroad.com/how-to-buy-a-vehicle-in-ecuador/ Serena Williams is thick. Tiffany is obese.

Get a hotel? That'll never happen. Virtually every American on the show who travels abroad to meet their lover is both penniless and suffering from a near-debilitating childlike naivety rendering them incapable of leaving the airport in a foreign country on their own.

One of the many things that annoys me about Paul is he uses unnecessary colloquialisms when talking to Karine and to the translator app. Like he told her "I'm going to have to bust my rear end" to make money instead of using language she or the app can understand, like "I will work very hard"

As a what? I'd watch an entire show of Paul running set to the "Baywatch" theme.

She tried living in the US. In a cult-like compound in the woods. For six months. She decided she doesn't want to live in the USA. I don't see it as selfish for her to want to live in her home country, just as it wouldn't be selfish for him to want to stay in the US.

I may be in the minority here, but I think she is hot as shit.

Sure but most guys like that aren't all that motivated about getting married and proposing to women they barely know. He's got the same incentive to marry an American as some of the Russian women on this show.

Maybe land grabbing or land seizing is the more neutral term, the blacks who are taking the land view it as reclaiming their land rather than stealing it. But my point is, a lot of whites are trying to get the heck out of South Africa. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1083530/south-african-farmers-land-reforms-migration-australia

My understanding is that the quality if life in South Africa is going way downhill especially for whites. There's a lot of crime and corruption and whites are getting their land stolen and feel like the blacks are running the country into the ground in many ways. A low class South African man may have the same motivation to get out of South Africa that a young Russian woman does to get out of her country. Hence Ronald meeting a chubby American single mom who visits South Africa and immediately proposing to her.

She's tattooed and she refers to sex as "boom boom." Those are Thai bargirl hallmarks. There are two types of women in Thailand: hookers and women who won't speak to guys like David.

She doesn't strike me as a passport-owning jetsetter.

I don't get what Paul's plan is regarding the excess three crates of luggage he can't take. He's going to throw away an $800 ticket to Brazil and the chance to bring two pieces of luggage. Then he's going to do what, buy another $1000 ticket and pay for 3+ excess bags on another airline? He doesn't have the money for that. Why not fly to Brazil with the two crates of most important stuff and then buy other stuff in Brazil? Does he not realize that hundreds of millions of babies have been born in Brazil and managed to live without American-sourced bulletproof baby products? Nothing in those crates 3-5 is essential. Also, he could fly down there now for the birth with crates 1-2, and then some time later fly back to the USA for a visit and return with crates 3-4. Yes, that will cost $1500 for a new round trip ticket, but he's gonna spend that much right now with his plan to throw away his one way ticket and buy a new one way ticket plus pay for three excess bags. He's not being rational here, not that I would expect him to.

I can't blame Evelin for not liking that weird family compound in the woods. That set up is way worse than Pao having to live in Oklahoma or Fernanda in that small town in North Carolina. But he's going to be equally unhappy moving to a tiny crappy fishing village in Ecuador. I don't know why they can't compromise by moving to a proper town in the USA or moving to Quito or Cuenca in Ecuador.

She has no money and none of her friends would sponsor him, so maybe she just wasn't financially able to sponsor him. But if that's the case, they should say that.

There are millions of Indian guys online doing whatever they can to get a foreign wife/girlfriend. India has a caste system and a guy there would more or less have marry a woman of similar social status, often with the wedding being arranged. They don't get their choice of women in India. If he marries the old American lady he gets one step closer to moving to the USA as the spouse of an American. Also, her $1200 a month in social security may be 3-4 times what he earns in a month. Also, he thinks she's richer than she is and would assume she has way more than $6,000. He ain't gonna be happy when her money runs out in a year. I think she said that he bought her the plane ticket. That would really, really surprise me. I have a hard time believing it's true. What I missed is why she's moving to India instead if importing him to the USA. Maybe like Paul, she's too poor to sponsor him and can't get a co-sponsor, but I don't remember that being discussed as her motivation for moving there.

I don't think it's nasty for him to ask her, once. It's very common for parents to sponsor their kids' foreign fiances. I think the majority of the Americans in the history of this show needed a co-sponsor. It's mainly just signing a piece of paper and technically being responsible if the foreigner shows up and goes on welfare but I suspect that it is rarely enforced. Where Paul was a dick was getting all pissy about her not wanting to be a sponsor and asking multiple times.
