---Original Message---

I have provided a lot of files that pretty much tells my story and have plenty more. I will summarize for most part.

From December 2019 to August 2020 I was a paid user on Victoria Hearts which is one of many mirror sites (Chamrerly, Valentime, Ukrainiancharm...) operated by one company. There is also Charmdate.com which is operated by another company but operates a similar scam with a lot of the same girls participating in it. The truth is that I can report hundreds of girls that are guilty of fraud however I am only reported one right now, Alina Tkachuk.

After signing up, you get bombard with messages from girls (so you pay) and one was from Alina Tkachuk. I never messaged any girls first, they all messaged me first. For some odd reason I wasn't able to find anything about Alina online so I thought she was one of the few honest girls on this site(s) and we communicated for a while. Everything Alina told me about herself and her intentions on the dating sites that I had to pay for was a lie which I was able to find later on social media and verify her fraud.

In our chats/letters you can see the timeline and read her own words.

I provided a sample of the payments I made on this fraud and I have multiple bank statements verifying these charges and many more. Total losses from Alina alone are well over $5k.

I have provided screenshots of the same search results from these mirror sites and the connection with charmdate.

I have provided screenshots of her profiles on these sites which are clearly lies and proves the sites do not verify the girls. I reported many girls to these sites, sometimes their profile gets removed, sometimes the girl begs you to write CS so she doesn't get fined or banned, but in all cases the profiles re-appear and the fraud continues.

I have provided the old profile Alina Tkachuk was using on Charmdate during the time we were in contact and she was scamming me. I reported her to all these sites in September 2020 and her profiles were briefly removed. Alina is back and currently active on the Victoria Hearts family of sites with the same profile and I have provide the new Chamdate profile Alina is currently using.

I have provided a screenshots of the gifts I ordered through the site(s), were delivered to Alina, and proves her knowingly participating in the fraud.

I have provided social media contact and information where anyone can easily verify her fraud, deception, and incriminate herself.

In her October 9 post, she admits to living with and owning a store with her boyfriend, Igor Plichko.

The fact she has Instagram, is active everyday, and posts all the ways for customers to contact her verifies her lies she told me and I had to pay for.

Alina post stories on her personal Instagram account publicly professing her love for her boyfriend, Igor Plichko, during the time we are in contact and I was paying to be deceived by Alina.

I have provided screenshots of their store, which is at the very least guilty of false advertising, and contradicts her nurse occupation on her profile.

Here is what I have reported to other sites/brands regrading their store.

Upon finding her on Instagram, I saw that they have a store together which was a surprise to me at first. When I looked at their store something seemed off to me and I decided to do a test order for a couple reasons. The first was to see if Alina answered the phone (and speak English) since in our chats elsewhere she told me for 9 months she had absolutely no way to possibly contact me elsewhere or know any English, and the second to see if the products they are selling are real or not. The prices do seem extremely low which I later find out are all different but not advertised as such.

When I called, sure enough Alina answered (and speaks English) and she told me I could find any product from any clothing retailer, send her the link and then she would give me a link to click (affiliate marketing) which would direct me to what looks like a dummy store product page as if it is in-stock in their store. I asked her if she was an affiliate marketer and she replied "no". This is a blatant lie that can be verified by their Telegram store page or by contacting vendors.

She then told me that I would have to pay her 50% up front to and then in 2 weeks the remaining 50% as well as shipping on top of it and for a higher price than they advertise to the public. This process doesn't make much sense to me because why can't I just pay for the product and have it shipped to me directly right now? I asked Alina this question and she would only say that it would take her 2 weeks to ship it. I also asked why the price warries than what is advertises since currency should convert at the same price to which her response was that is changes everyday. At this point I have red flags galore telling me something is fishy with this. I told her that I didn't believe that she had my product in stock and wouldn't pay her any money unless she was ready to ship it today. She tried to be flirty or charming to get me to make a payment but didn't.

Roughly 2 weeks later I notice the Calvin Klein shirt that I had previously inquired about was now suddenly being advertised as in stock in her store with only one size available, the size I said I would want. Not long after this ad was posted I was surprised to receive a call from Alina telling me she was ready to ship my shirt. I couldn't help but to laugh while I asked if I would be getting the one her boyfriend is modeling on Instagram today? It is the shirt I wanted, my size, there seems to only be one in stock and I didn't/order want a used shirt. That is not what they are advertising. I did not place the order as I was 99% sure I was already being scammed by Alina (verified) elsewhere, I didn't pay her any money outside of what she got paid or the gifts she received from me elsewhere, and the ad was removed from Instagram only to be reposted a few weeks later. I am assuming they sold this used shirt to another unsuspecting customer they thought they were buying as brand new.

The store has evolved from them advertising it as an actual store to now being a buying service with no physical store (advertising something that doesn't exist is fraud), maybe because I publicly called her out on it. However, all their ads have remained the same with them advertising products as new and in-stock usually with only one size available which is not typical. It is also not typical for an honest seller to post a video of themselves opening a customer's order, unpacking everything, walk around town making videos/ads to promote it, then another video showing the customers order being repackaged in their own packaging to then ship to the customer. Vendors like Michael Kors and Calvin Klein usually don't allow this process and when contacted this was verified as not acceptable. It is also not typical for honest sellers to have victims of fraud like Alina Tkachuk, Igor Plichko, and their store Strawberry Outlet currently have. When contacted directly about their fraud, they ignore, block, and hide any bad reviews, comments, or victims of their fraud from the rest of the public being informed of their fraud and deception. Again, not typical for an honest seller to perform actions like these.

Based off what they post and share with the public it appears by all means that they need the customer to pay 50% up front so they can buy the product, they advertise a price for a product on Instagram only to change it once the customer is in the order process (deception), they have the customers products shipped to them so they can model everything which they don't disclose to the customer (deception), they post the products as in-stock in their 'store' that doesn't exist when it isn't in-stock (false advertising), then once they are done using the product the customer thinks are brand new and not used (deception), they attempt to complete the order. This is fraudulent advertising at the very least and very likely fraud all together. Knowing how big her fraudulent dating scam network in her country is with lots of familiar faces from the dating sites promoting her or doing something very similar it is easy to have to resources to deceive the public like they are doing.

Both Alina Tkachuk and Igor Plichko have been verified as scammers by multiple other site(s)/sources and am hoping this report gets reviewed, verified, and posted on the site. The unsuspecting public needs to be informed of not just Alina's fraud but this prevalent type of fraud to help prevent others from becoming victims.
