'Fake heiress' Anna Sorokin: 'I'm not this dumb, greedy person'

'Fake heiress' Anna Sorokin: 'I'm not this dumb, greedy person.'

The Anna Sorokin story is a tale of a young woman who decided to be someone else and became that person - but at an enormous cost.

Dubbed names like the “fake heiress,” the “Soho scammer,” the “Soho grifter,” Sorokin assumed the name Anna “Delvey” and pretended to be a German heiress with a $67 million trust fund, according to prosecutors.

Prosecutors argued Sorokin used that fake identity to swindle Manhattan’s elite, gaining access to exclusive parties, nightclubs and hotels until her deception came to light. She defrauded hotels, restaurants, a private jet operator and banks out of around $275,000 during a 10-month spree, prosecutors alleged.

So who is the real Sorokin?
