This is an in fact totally honest review of my first hand personal experience with Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency from November of 2017 to November of 2018.

My name is Eric and I spent a year being deceived into thinking that I was communicating with a woman on the Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency. I really fell hard for this extremely beautiful woman and I spent thousands of dollars sending paid messages and gifts for holidays and just because I wanted to buy her things off of the Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency Website.

However, a year later in November of 2018 when I finally went to Kharkiv Ukraine to meet the woman that I thought that I had been exchanging letters with through translators, though I was pleasantly surprised to find out that she actually did exist, as I had questioned several times during our innumerable hundreds of letters, I also discovered that the woman that I met and spent about 6 days of 4 hours per day marriage compatibility sessions with in fact absolutely was not the person, or I'm sure team people, that I had been exchanging letters with.

This woman's marriage website profile said that she was a designer however she was a bartender who was one of those people who drinks so much that she looked drunk even when she wasn't. Her profile also said that she smoked rarely when in fact that woman was a cigarette addict who couldn't sit for 30 minutes without having to leave and go and have a cigarette.

I also discovered that this woman absolutely was not interested in me at all, which was totally contradictory to the year long line of absolute and complete bullsh** that I was being fed by whoever was writing me letters nearly every day for 12 months.

After it was all said and done, between paid letters, gifts, plane tickets, and paying $300.00 per night for an apartment that came with an accommodation package that I'm sure didn't cost the marriage agency $200.00 per month to rent I spent about $15, 000.00 US to meet a person that I had not really been communicating with and on the last of the 5-6 days that I spent socializing with this woman this complete dragon lady of a woman started ranting about how she didn't know me at all, she wasn't going to have any children and she didn't owe me anything for the year of time, effort and investment in trying to get married to her. To which I replied through our ever present translator, "Is this woman a psycho?"

When I asked my translators how many people were actually getting married through this marriage agency per year they both told me that that information wasn't shared with them and they didn't know because after they are finished translating for potential couples they never hear from them again... Based on my experience my guess is that less than 10 couples per year are actually getting married through this agency at best, if that many.

I told the agency that this woman absolutely was not the person that I had spent a year exchanging letters with and they told me that sometimes there are miscommunications during translation when in fact this totally beautiful lady was just posted on their website as bait to scam people into thinking that they were going to marry her when in fact this woman is a radical feminist who is totally not interested in getting married to anyone. She may be interested in getting someone to pay for her to mover to another country but she is totally not interested in marriage, not to mention long term marriage.

The agency reminded me that I didn't take their advice of communicating with more than one woman on the website (which would have cost a small fortune) just in case there were incompatibility issues and they offered me the option to meet someone else on my next trip to Ukraine, which I squarely refused because i had been scammed enough.

Guys, I have just been using UFMA, a week ago I returned to New York. I can say that these guys are great, they helped me very well with matchmaking.

Here’s my story. I first tried to communicate with one girl from another agency and spent a lot of time on her, staying two weeks in Kharkov… and nothing really happened between us, we just went to diners and restaurants and a couple of times for shopping… I already saw that this does not lead anywhere, but I could not help it... Then I decided to do more dating and went to the UFMA website, talked to Sergei and came to their office… He picked a couple of women with whom I met and spent a few dates.

These meetings were strikingly different from those that were with that girl I met online. I was not taken to expensive restaurants, no one was taking me shopping etc… I see that the women in Sergei's agency are very decent and modest and I really liked it.

Now I will deal with the business and will soon come back to Kharkov to spend more quality time with them. So I can recommend the uFMA agency to anyone who is looking for a girl… They will treat you with attention and respect.

good and honest agency

This is one of rare good agencies, stop writing crap about them!

Sergey is a good guy and his agency is good too. Been to Kharkov twice.

ufma's a legit place. i've met 5 or 6 ladies there. had serious relationship with one of them for almost 3 years.
some guys are not lucky to meet a good woman so they start complaining about everything. well, maybe this is understood.

I liked my experience with the UFMA. I met one lady in Kiev and one in Kharkov, both seemed genuine and nice. One of them took me out to a club one night, just the two of us, next day she took me around the city. Very nice experience. Going to come back in spring and meet the ladies again and hopefully make some decision. Write to me if you have any questions about Ukrainian Fiancee or the Ukraine, I’ll help with some advice adbranson@tutanota.com

A new complaint has been filed. Very serious issue! Fully agree. Please bookmark or pass the complaint URL for the new complaint to friends so that more guys do not get defrauded. URL: Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency (UFMA) in Kharkov/Ukrainian Marriage Agency — ukrainian fiancee marriage agency (ufma) scam: beware of fraud and theft

I have not filed any complaints against ukrainian fiancee marriage agency (ufma) located in kharkov, but I am now because of the libel posted against me by user cb12 and the blatant misrepresentation in facts. ukrainian fiancee marriage agency (ufma) is indeed a scam and guilty of fraud and theft.

There have been and are cases where ufma has left profiles of girls up when they are not active, which is fraud because it is using the girls information to lure guys to the agency to pay for whatever.in one specific incident, a girl asked sergey to remove her profile in june 2011 and he did not. a guy sent a letter to this girl in november 2011 and got a reply, however, an agency translator responded to the guy by way of a letter saying he or she was the girl. immediately after, the girl was contacted and she had no knowledge that the guy had written to her or that the the agency translator responded to the guy that wrote to her. additionally, the girl was asked if she knew her profile was live on the ufma website and she said no and then told that she had asked sergey to remove it in june 2011 and he did not.

The girl then called sergey and told him to remove it. this means for 5 months ufma used this girls details to defraud guys. another way that ukrainian fiancee marriage agency (ufma) defrauds guys is when guys by jewelry and other gifts for the girls.

I personally purchased a gold pendant for a girl and asked for delivery photos. I received 7 delivery photos and the gold pendant was not shown in any of them. when the girl was asked if she received the gold pendant she said no and the jewelry box was empty in the delivery photos.

With respect to the libel against me above by user cb12, I sent the following in an email to complaint board:

Hello,

In complaints: Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency (UFMA)/Ukrainian Marriage Agency, Mail Order Bride, Online Dating — in kharkov, ukrainian marriage agency scam; fraud, theft, and fake site and http://www.complaintsboard.com/bycompany/ukrainian-fiancee-marriage-agency-ufma-ukrainian-marriage-agency-mail-order-bride-online-dating-a418567.html user cb12 libelled me. I do not own porn studios and travel to ukraine to recruit ukrainian women. additionally, there are no copyright or identity problems associated with carrie joslin and the model of concern has full knowledge of what is going on. please remove this libel immediately.

I did not make any complaints so saying that I made those complaints is a lie and calling me an international scammer is libel. again, please remove the libel and if it hasn't been removed within 24 hours I will contact my attorney regarding this matter.

Thank you,
William pike

This is pure libel against me by cb12! it's a load of bs with no proof behind it! I suspect cb12 to be a person named alex who sought out a model at ufma for the purpose of wanting to harm her. alex is also on a vendetta against mail order bride (mob) angencies.in the post he made notice that he links back to ruadventures and a blog he created.

The thread alex links to contains 40 pages that talks about ufma in a bad way. the blog has a link to that thread also. alex is cleverly smearing ufma, libelling me, and attempting to make sergey blame me. this said, alex is ufma scam, ukrainian financee marriage agency scam, and cb12.

Other aliases that alex used that are known recently include; jon_k on ruadventures, fungus on xnxx, kremnef on xnxx, ronald-hard on xnxx, and whoseggrover on xnxx. this is nothing new for alex as he has attacked and complained about many agencies via internet aliases that he has.

Go to hell, alex!

Trump Brings Prestige to the Mail Order Bride Industry.

For years, International Marriage Services had to live with the stigma of being referred to as Mail Order Bride services. However, many consider the term "mail-order bride" derogatory and feel it demeans foreign women by comparing them to commodities for sale and falsely implying that (unlike local women), they exercise no judgment over the men they meet and would marry anyone from a relatively wealthy country. Even with the foreign women being labeled as mail order brides these companies have grown in popularity for the past two decades, largely due to the internet. The industry grew at such a fast pace it caught the attention of the US senator Maria Cantwell of Washington State, who in 2006 she pushed a bill through congress known as IMBRA or International Marriage Brokers Regulation Act. Although the intent of Senator Cantwell was clearly meant to put Foreign Bride Companies out of business by severely restricting how men communicate with foreign women. In the end, the companies flourished under the new regulations as these business quickly modified their business models.

Kenneth Agee, marketing Director for A Foreign Affair one of the largest so called Mail Order Bride Companies says, "We have always had to overcome this label. Since Trump announced his candidacy for president of the United States, the industry saw a significant increase in upscale business men looking for foreign brides. Once he became president, Trump made it the new status symbol of success to be married to an eastern European women. With First Lady Melanie Trump in the White House, opinions about foreign women have dramatically changed. Once men were scorned upon to be married to a women from Russian or the Ukraine, now is seen as prestigious. And we are seeing huge increase of men seeking foreign brides, our client base is up by more than 200% since Trump has taken office. This month alone we will be taking over 100 American men to the Ukraine, mostly very successful executives." Beside online matchmaking, the company arranges group tours for men that will travel to countries throughout the world. During these tours the men will meet hundreds of pre-screened women during what A Foreign Affair calls "Social Events" or what Kenneth calls speed dating on steroids.

Critics say these women are just used as arm trophies for business men in America. That men take advantage of the women's circumstances, both economical and geographical. Kenneth argues, "I would hardly say Melanie Trump has been taken advantage of or refer her to as a Mail Order Bride. Women choose just like the men choose, we are all adults and are responsible for our own choices. It is just that men in America have a good reputation for the way we treat women and how we take care of our families. This opens the door to the men to meet some of the most beautiful women in the world."

Trump is not the only high profile person to marry a foreign women, Jeb Bush met his wife in Mexico. Rupert Murdoch former CEO of Fox News married Wendi Deng from China, and the list goes on.

If Trump accomplishes nothing else during his presidency he has clearly helped one Industry.

Do mail order bride really exist?

The answer is Yes, and No, it really depends on your definition of mail order brides.

The historical roots of the mail-order bride industry that emerged in the 1800s in the American frontier: European American men found financial success in the migration West, but the one thing that was missing was the company of a wife. Very few women lived there at this time, so it was hard for these men to settle down and start a family. They attempted to attract women living back East; the men wrote letters to churches and published personal advertisements in magazines and newspapers. In return, the women would write to the men and send them photographs of themselves. Courtship was conducted by letter, until a woman agreed to marry a man she had never met.[9] Many women wanted to escape their present way of living, gain financial security and see what life on the frontier could offer them. Most of these women were single, but some were widows, divorcees or runaways.

During most of the 20 century, the mail order bride continued with the main method of women putting themselves in catalogs. Then men would view the women's profile, then for a fee order the women address. These became the main order bride companies business method in the 20 the century, with the fall of the Soviet union and cheap airfares, these companies spread from Asian to Eastern Europe, mainly now the Ukraine

Today most women do not leave their countries to escape poverty but to seek a man they believe will be a good husband and provider, that is family orientated and that looks at women with more respect than in many countries around the world.

With the advent of the intent, the mail order bride industry boomed into a billion dollar industry, Now with a few pictures and website, anyone could be in the mail order bride business. With hundreds of ma and pop shops opening over the last two decade, Most who were clients of one of the three original mail order bride companies, A Foreign Affair (AFA), Anastasia and EC, The owner of ForeignLadies.com met his wife while working on a tour from loveme.com, A Foreign affair still today in the largest in the industry, each week they offer tours to one of a dozen countries China to Peru and everywhere in between. The industry grew so fast in 1998, Senator Cantwell of Washington state introduces legislation to regulate the mail order bride industry. and a new law Called: "International Marriage Brokers Act" or IMBRA was born. With stiff regulations, many companies like Anastasia moved from Bride business to Fantasy Chat.

Although the industry strongly objects to the term mail order brides, saying there is no difference if man in New York courting a woman from California through match.com, then courting a woman from Russia. Critics like the Terra Justice Center has a different out look, saying these men take advantage of women oversea. But studies have contradicted these statement and show abuse is actually lower in these marriages. See "International Marriages - A Report to Congress"

So why do thousands of women join these site: Elena Kosalova of the Ukraine says, "Men here are not serious about family, they expect women to stay home while they go out each night with their friends and drink. I want a man who s serious, mature and who wants to be with his wife and family. I have met Americans in the past and they seem more reliable and mature." Elena rejects the idea she is a "Mail Order Bride"

Why do men seek a mail order bride: James Goodwin, 43 of South Carolina says, " I meet women here all the time, but I just can not find the values I am looking for.. I have dated here for more than 20 years, After three days in Kiev, I was shock at how many beautiful women I met that I would consider marrying, now I am just trying to reduce my options and pick the right one. It truly is the fastest way to find a beautiful sincere women.

So what is the cost, the cost can range greatly from site to site and from type of service, AFA or loveme.com offers everything from letter writing, tours and executive services for the rich and famous. As little as $12 to as much as $25, 000. The owner John Adams say's the best way is just go over and meet then women, avoid letters and never waste money on expensive chat. You can meet up to 1000 beautiful women in just 10 days, it will be the greatest vacation of your life. Joe Nail of ForeignLadies.com, has stayed with the traditional Letter Writing, Each letter is $7.50 and but say they do plan on offer some limited chat option.

Many sites like, foreignwomen.com, PhilippineSinges.com, and UkraineSsingles.com, that offer simple unlimited membership for $29 per month. These type of site also target pacific regions, like Asia, Latin America or Eastern Europe.

There is also a site for mail order grooms; SingleMenOnline.com, that caters to men publishing their photos in hopes to meet an American Bride.

James Dunn, who is a ghost writer for review sites says "You get what you pay for. Membership sites to do not screen the members at all. so you never know who you really are writing, The big boys require the women to apply in person in one of their local offices. The companies that offer group tours will introduce you to hundreds of beautiful women, for the cost of $1000 to $3000 depending on location, about the same you would pay for any vacation. Several companies also do individual tours these can range from $750 to $1500, But only arrange one to one introductions, Always make sure they are biased in the USA or EU, Most of the complaints come from small agencies that are desperate and need to make as much as they can from you. Just a note, if the company is based in an a foreign country you will have no recourse if they do not follow through.

So do mail order brides exist, If you belive a if a woman is a mail order bride if she lives in another county then Yes, But if you believe it just another dating option like any on-line dating site, matchmaker or dating service, than No. . It really seems like a doubled standard in the world, If a women meets a man in Italy or France, then oh that is so romantic, but if a man meets a women in Philippines, than ...

This agency has a lot of marriages so it definitely has serious women.

Hey kks, stop writng BS everywhere. If some woman turned you around, it doesn't mean that everyone is guilty )))

Hey kks, stop ### everywhere. If some woman turned you around, it doesn't mean that everyone is guilty )))

I am happily married to a woman from UFMA for 3 years now. Traveled there in 2010 first, then in 2011 and with all the visa stuff it took 1 year to get her back home. UFMA is an OK place.
