Was this on an agency site or a dating site?

I'd think a scammer would happily send you more pictures to reel you in.

If this was an agency maybe it is more likely that the agency sent the initial letter with the photos without her knowledge to get the ball rolling and earn some $$ on the letters?

Mind you, this is all just pure speculation on my part!  ;D

scammer or not? I just got a few letters from a girl and  the 1st letter had 3 photos  of her  I shot a few emails back to her and just asked her for another photo and I got back a semi nasty reply and a refusal to send more pics ...... what do you all think I think scammer let me know your opinions please ! tiphat

Pretty much impossible to say with the info you have provided. Post a link to where you found her or cut & paste some of her (edited) emails and we might have a chance.

the original contact was afa site they have some kind of email thing  for that dating act. this girl has her own email and started writing after my initial contact with her from afa .the letters sometimes are  broken english then others they are very good english but the 1st was not in good english,..I 'm thinking that the scammer ran out of pics and doesnt have anymore of this particular girl. call me suspicious ....but Im gonna play it out a little to see what happens next ,Im going to reply back to her and  request them again.she demanded that I come and and see her if I want to know what she looks like but Im getting a wierd feeling about this girl and not in a good way.! mind you this  interaction with her has been going on for only a week !

Thanks Mike. Why are you doubting that she is NOT a 'scammer'?

just some outside opinions before  I list her if shes not already listed ...she didnt ask me for money yet  but it seems odd behavior for a legit girl. remember i'm new to this too  lol

Look what the American media makes some people believe:
