Several of the spies mug shots on TV this morning, several of them women — one neighbor said “she couldn’t have been a spy, look what she did with her Hydrangeas” LOL
Another is a NY real estate agent / female redhead - one using the identity of a dead Canadian lived in NJ - known as the “the Murphys”
They passed info at the train station and Starbucks places ...........sounds just like a movie too.
A ring of 10 Russian moles right out of a Cold War spy novel was smashed yesterday — and among those busted was a flame-haired, 007-worthy beauty who flitted from high-profile parties to top-secret meetings around Manhattan.
Russian national Anna Chapman — a 28-year-old divorcee with a masters in economics, an online real-estate business, a fancy Financial District apartment and a Victoria’s Secret body — had been passing information to a Russian government official every Wednesday since January, authorities charged.
In one particularly slick spy exchange on St. Patrick’s Day, Chapman pulled a laptop out of a tote bag in a bookstore at Warren and Greenwich streets in the West Village while her handler lurked outside, receiving her message on his own computer, the feds said. A similar exchange occurred at a Midtown coffee shop at 47th Street and 8th Ave.
The FBI claimed the two were corresponding via a secret online network.
Last week, an undercover agent pretending to be a Russian official arranged a meeting to talk about the weekly laptop exchanges, pretending to be ready to send the sexy spy on a mission to deliver a fake passport to another female agent, according to the federal complaint
“Are you ready for this step?” he asked. “S-—, yes,” Chapman allegedly gushed.
The undercover instructed her on how she would recognize her fellow spy and how to report back on the handoff, the feds said.

Real life is better than a movie, remember when some of the British got tossed out of Russia for using hollow rocks to leave messages in?
Not that long ago.
