Crime Writers On...True Crime Review - Podcast autorstwa Partners in Crime Media
Using a popular dating app, Cecilie connects with a caring playboy named Simon - the son of a rich diamond broker who wears designer clothes, dines at five-star restaurants, and flies her around Europe in a private jet. Though it seems like true love, their lives are upended when Simon goes on the run to escape his violent business rivals. Cut off from his fortune, he convinces her to borrow money so he can continue his extravagant lifestyle. But when the bills come due, Cecilie realizes Simon is not who he seems. Three women share how they were bamboozled by Simon Leviev in the Netflix documentary “The Tinder Swindler.” Part catfish, part Ponzi-scheme, it explores his elaborate romantic con, his life of fraud, and his efforts to continue his grift today.
