Hey Wolfgang,

There was a series of mails about this person on Conch-L before, and I
remember that this Natalya-person has an alias as well: Evhen Hryshyn

I lost amongst others a Volutoconus grossi and a Cypraea guttata this way.
There were other names (but always the same address) mentionned in the
previous talks on Conch-l, but I can't find that mail back. Surely the other
list members will react to your call.

Best regards,

Chris

Beware of:

Bret Raines from MPT gave already a warning about this person on his site,
but I also want to warn here about the "modus operandi" of this person and
possibly others of this group.

The following happened to me this year:
Natalya (N.) was sending me an exchange list with many different shells from
all over the world (some quite special). I was sending my own exchange list
to her. After we were choosing shells from each other for bartering I sent
my specimens and N. also wrote, that her parcel was on the way... It never
arrived. And she never responded on my e-mails. I lost in that way the
following: Cypraea sakuraii, Cypraea valentia and Pterynotus loebbeckii.

Is there any listing of those individuals known to be notorious fraud /
cheat ?

Wolfgang
