So, I've got her 'photos' - obviously an anonymous model shot.
But what the hell is she asking for???? - 'and one time, at band camp...' comes to mind.
Btw, I sent her a photo of Robert Pires, Arsenal's finest.

(both quotes are hers)

and this other time at band camp.......

Sounds a bit round the houses!
Could be her uncle is going to pay her fee's (yeah right) but he cannot send the money to her so she needs someone to send her the money from their account then the uncle will send them the money through bank to bank transfer.
Long & Short of it she wants you to send money.

She/he wants to launder money, probably stolen from another Romeo she/he has on the hook, through your bank account. This is becoming more and more common with the lads and vlads.

I've seen this before. Lad convinced vic 1 to let "her" use his bank account to receive money, then vic1 forwards it on using WU. Vic 2 gets told the story of how the money needs to be sent to a relative/friend's bank account. Vic 2 realises something's not right, alerts the authorities and vic 1 gets nabbed for it, while lad just walks away laughing.

Ouch
Just shows you can never under estimate a scammer

She shortened her request...this was my reply:

Jane,

I told you I don't have IM - it's too much hassle. I
don't have enough time to spend chatting online, I'm a
very busy person.
I'm a little confused as to why your uncle would want
to put money in my account. If he lives here, we could
meet up and he could hand me the cash. Besides, I
don't have an account at RBC. I used to but they
closed it down when I tried to deposit monopoly money
in and ATM. Funny story actually, my friends put it in
my wallet as a joke. I was a little drunk when I went
to the ATM and put the money in an envelope. I vaguely
remember wondering where all the money came from at
the time, but as I said, I was a little tipsy.
So, convinced I had deposited a load of money, I went
back to the bank to try to withdraw it but when they
said the money was fake I went berserk!
Long story short, my friends' joke wasn't so funny.
So, as you see Jane, I don't have an account with RBC.

You haven't even been here or looked at the room. Why
would you take a room in a house with a person you
don't even know. It's not very safe, you know.
Where are you now?

She says she's Russian...her IP says she's in Virginia USA.

Post the headers up. I think either you've looked at the wrong IP set or the scammer's spoofing his address.

She's saddened by my monopoly money story...

Quote:

Am sorry i was unable to reply your mail all this while, i had a bad network here so thats why. Its really funny to hear about your storry though its also makes me sad but anyway i really need to find ways to move in there as soon as possible and with the discriptions and the photos of the appartment you sent me i have 100% conviction that its what am really looking for there in canada......so about the payment i want it to be before i live here because thats the only way i can be able to convince my unclea to pay up the bills on time so in this i may be needing your help that is if you could help me open a new RBC account and when the transfer is done you'll deduct the amount you use in opening it because his not just going to transfer the bills alone his also going to transfer me some money to make myself confortable there and to pay for some certains things here........so i want you to know that friends do not grow up together under the same roof but they meet each other one way or the other so to tell you we are already friends now please try to help me out because you are the only oxne am counting on now for the appartment.............Jane

Where's the scam? Btw, I sent one photo I found of someone else's apartment - one photo - enough for her. And we're friends! Great!

S/he is wanting to use you as a mule....only no check involved.

She's also trying to make you run out of breath by making you read sentences that have neither commas nor full stops which can be very difficult to read if you are used to taking a breath everytime you see a comma or a full stop and .... [gasp!]
