Summary
Fake German heiress, Anna Sorokin conned her way into Manhattan society. Posing as Anna Delvey, a German heiress, she swindled banks, hotels, and friends out of more than $200,000 dollars. She forged checks to get money from banks and charmed people into paying for extravagant meals, and travel.
Sorokin was convicted on a handful of grand larceny and theft of services charges. After serving her time, the 31-year-old released from prison, now, fighting being deported, but again Sorokin falls on her feet. She landed a deal with Netflix for the rights to her life story, and now Sorokin is selling her artwork.
