THE TINDER SWINDLER – after watching this documentary and Inventing Anna, I am perplexed! How is it these imposters are repeatedly able to con so many folks out of such huge amounts of cash? I would really like to understand the psychology behind this deception from the victim’s point of view. I can’t imagine myself ever being in the position. But I digress. This documentary chronicles the plight of three women who met Simon Leviev on Tinder, were deceived by him in the exact same fashion, and lost everything. There are many more, and not just women. One of these three was finally able to bring Simon down, after partnering with the other two, the police, journalists and social media. Sadly, his detention was only a quick blip on the radar. He’s now back on Tinder and living the high life once again, probably using the same fraudster tools in his dupery wheelhouse. This saga features the actual participants – no actors. No toasts, no boyfriends or girlfriends.
