Summary

This week, Sara and Danny are back to cover a con-artist that lurked Tinder to find his victims. They breakdown the details of how he would operate and how he managed to go for years without being caught, and how it all came crashing down eventually. They also discuss the recent Netflix documentary on the the subject, and how the documentary handled the story. To end the show, they play a game called 'Go Fund Yourself', where they try to guess how various absurd crowdfunding campaigns have fared RESOURCES: https://www.timesofisrael.com/el-al-rabbi-accused-in-fraud-scheme-alongside-son-the-tinder-swindler/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/tinder-swindler-extradited-back-to-israel-to-face-charges/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-tinder-swindler-sentenced-to-15-months-in-prison/ https://www.newsweek.com/lld-diamonds-simon-leviev-response-comment-tinder-swindler-netflix-shimon-hayut-1676130 https://www.insider.com/tinder-swindler-fake-billionaire-scammed-women-dates-into-debt-documentary-2022-2 https://www.vg.no/spesial/2019/tindersvindleren/english/ Learn more about your ad choices.
