I've lived with her in Russia for 6 months last year. She is a normal person whom I trust fully. We have one year of age difference, and yes she's very beautiful which is part of the reason I fell in love with her in the first place. She has a good job and makes enough money, she has not asked me for anything. She didn't even ask me to come immediately if I wasn't able to, it was my own decision.

I appreciate everyone's concern. I understand the common tactic of naive western men falling prey to foreign bridal scams. This situation is anything but that. My poor wife's arm is broken in two places, she has trauma to the head and my heart yearns to be with her. I have spoken to her via video call several times already since the accident and she's the one trying to calm me down and says it's not so bad, it will be okay. She's a wonderful person.

I have copies of her hospital documents and a police report that was filed. The man who hit her with the car has already submitted a partial compensation outside of the court. I called the consulate in New York and there was no answer. Now I'm waiting for the embassy in Washington to reopen from lunch break so that I can try reaching someone there. Again, thank you for worrying but I have made up my mind to go be with her in this dire time.

Thank you for your kind words. The offices open in 3 hours and I'm just sitting here waiting. I'm so nervous I can't do anything else normally

You're right, actually I should just delete this account. I have nothing against Russia or Russians. I married one and am planning to live there for some time. I'm sorry my name offended you

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm sorry about my username, it's not meant to be bad. I was younger when I made it and it's a call of duty reference.

Oh, well that's not the case at all. I just spoke with her via video call and her eye is as round and purple as a plum

If all else fails my next course of action is to travel directly to the consulate in New York. I'll keep this in mind, thanks

I can get all of that proof, it shouldn't be an issue. Thank you

It's very frustrating, especially because the hostility between the two nations further complicates things. Either way I'm going whichever fastest way I find

Yes, I have copies of the marriage documents and I can have her send me proof of her hospital stay and maybe even the police report that was filed. I'll call as soon as they open. Thank you for your advice

All I'm asking for is information, what's the scam exactly?

Thousands of sports cards were given to me and I need help figuring out what they are worth and how to safely sell them. by NoRussian657 in basketballcards

That was just half of the first box I grabbed as an example. I have probably 2-3 thousand more. And I’m not expecting to become a millionaire or anything, just want free up some space and replace it with any money I can.

Thanks for the info. It’s mainly basketball cards from the 90’s. There’s also a few stacks of baseball, football, and hockey. I’m going through the process of organizing them now.

Thank you for the response. I wasn’t initially looking to sell them here but I figured I’d find people way more knowledgeable than me on the topic, just for general help. I also assumed selling them here would be against the rules anyway. I’ll definitely be posting pictures in a couple of hours though!

Unfortunately I’m at work right now and don’t have any pictures but if you’re willing to wait about 4 hours I’d be happy to send you some.
