Status: offline 		What is it with all the mail from Sweden, Denmark, and Eastern Europe looking for a domanent home to join? Is this normal or am I specially favored? Are these people who think this is an easy way to come to America, or is my American egotism shaping my thinking? Are these scams which eventually turn into requests for money to come over? Is this just another form of mail order brides? I really don’t know if I should take these mails seriously or regard them as scams.

Status: offline 		They are usually scams.

On the event one wasn't, take a good consideration and try to picture if you would really want to agree to be involved with someone 'mail order' style.  How many hours, over how many weeks, months, years, not to mention the huge financial investment would you really wish to devote to this person?

My advice; let them know if they're serious, they're welcome to meet you at the local Starbucks on May 3rd at 6pm.  Let them know to shoot you an email the day before, to confirm.  Beyond that, they don't merit any more attention you might give any other online buddy.

I know the drill.  It could be a scam.  Even if it's not, it's expensive.  Sometimes, it involves assisting with other family members.  <sigh>

But they do seem to have found pictures of beautiful women!!!  It's possible, I suppose, they are even pictures of themselves!!!

Status: offline 		Lol, certainly nothing got me so horny and hopeful like an email from an apparently stunning 20yo European whose opening line was "Greetings my new Master".....
 
Not really sure what her angle was and I didn't ask.  Geez I dunno, if it's not telemarketers wanting to give me all kinds of free stuff, it's gorgeous babes throwing themselves at my feet. 

Time to change my nic to MrCharisma, perhaps?

These countries are doing quite well and I think the Danes and Swedes are fully capable of buying their own plane tickets if they so desire

So, I would give them a try

Status: offline 		Are you often online late at night? If so, you are appearing at the top of these people's homepages as they browse collarme at work. I am a nightowl and when I refresh frequently around 3AM I'm bound to get at least a couple of European boys offering to serve me (especially via webcam.) I don't believe they are any more a scam than the guys from Kansas or California that write me the same types of letters.

Status: offline 		i received a message from a Serbian Domme looking for a home from here - clearly she didn't notice i was already owned by Daddy yet she felt i needed "expert" training from her.

another collarme member told me about one message he received from a "slave" who move to Nigeria to be with her master and now that her "2 years service was up" she was looking to come back to the US.

Status: offline 		I get mail weekly from men in other countries begging me to let them use me to get into my country. I even have a thing at the top of my profile in red letters saying "Seeking LOCAL ONLY! NO relocations! NO travelers!" You would think they'd get the point. But since they aren't really looking for a relationship, but entry to the country, they don't care what the profile says. Hubby gets these type of letters also, usually from Russian women, but a few from other countries. I knew from the very first one either of us got that the people writing were scam artists.

Why would a Scandinavian want to go to America for anything other than a bona fide reason? The average Scandinavian has a far better life style than the average American, they would be trading down. As for Eastern Europeans, if you lived in Kiev, even Russia would be an improvement.

A few may just want to visit you and ride in your car.

Ride in your car... Heh.

Could be the time of morning. But I started thinking about dual meanings. And in my head it sounded a bit like, "Ride in your car? Oh I bet they would..."

I'm surprised to hear about Swedes and Danes looking relocate.  Who knows?

Status: offline 		While it most likely is a scam, there still really are people in those countries. Some of them might want to contact you. I would say that you should judge it more as a scam on the basis of content than country.

Funny, though, that I don't get any of those letters now that I'm living in Chile :D

Status: offline 		I get a lot of these too, even though I specifically state in my profile I am not seeking a sub or slave from outside the United States.  I have set up my mail controls to send these responses to bulk mail automatically so I don't even see them, as they are not people I would ever consider. 
 
Some may be sincere and some may be a scam, but I find the hurdles associated with relocating a slave from another country more than I care to deal with.
