I chatting with two russian woman right now.

But all they talk about is themself - education, family etc etc etc.

When do they start to talk about money?

You are receiving form letters right now. They don't read word you type.
Give it a while, the request for WU transfer will come eventually, it always does.

Mine took around 3 months to start hinting.

They obviously aren't in that much of a rush.

Also, 99% of their email is scripted, with exception of your name.

Ask questions, demand they answer them, tell them how important it is that they answer your questions, etc.

Often they'll put the answer briefly inside their scripted reply. DON'T ACCEPT THIS. Question them, push them for more answers, ask them why they're not listening to you...

My experience is different. I go into great detail early on and they start communicating how much we have in common. We talk "off script" pretty early on. The money request usually comes after certain facts are established:

Shortly after the travel is decided upon she needs money real quick, otherwise the rates will skyrocket.

My love affairs usually last only a few weeks. I have to figure a way to keep them hopeful even when receiving no money. I have to refine my techniques.

For the Russian ones

I usually read through the emails (which is no mean feat the way some of them are written) and pick a point to ask them about. When they ignore it I give them a mild slap, if they ignore that one too I give them a bigger slap. All the while I'm building up to getting them to travel over here.

For the Nigerian ones

These are never as hard to get off script. Just type away any old crap and slowly pretend to fall in love

'Just do it!'

You can 'screw them up', but hell, the stupid Russians will usually start writing you again.
IF they stop writing you on one email account, send them a letter from a different one.

Like said, they usually aren't reading your letters, They may ask for pictures and details from you, but they're just pretending to be interested. There's no reason to develop a real detailed 'persona', or even send them pictures. Do as little as you can in return, unless they stop writing you, then give a hair more.....they'll usually start up again.

Just remember, they're not putting any effort into the letters they're sending you. It's all pretty automated. There's not much reason you should, either, until 'money time'!

Hmm... Perhaps some emotional blackmail such as "if you do not come over here before I send you money, it will mean you do not love me" and promise them lots of children and stuff?
