Anna Delvey: The Fake Heiress Who Scammed New York | #447

In the summer of 2017, 26-year-old Anna Sorokin was arrested in Manhattan with a stack of unpaid hotel bills and fraudulent loan requests in her wake. She’d been calling herself Anna Delvey: an uber-wealthy German heiress. In reality? She didn’t have a penny to her (fake) name.
Armed only with an untraceable accent and a passion for fashion, Anna tried to pull the designer wool over the eyes of some of America’s biggest financial institutions, in her bid to secure multi-million-dollar loans…
And the worst part? She almost got away with it.
Was Anna a con artist? An inspirational Robin Hood in high heels? An insufferable wannabe? Or all of the above?
