Why? All you need to do, is to observe people from these cricles for a while and if you can act a little and put some shamelessness on it...you can fool elites cause they are just used to people with certain manners and dont encounter scammers that often. They cant even imagine a "normie" would even get close to where they hang out. People can be very shallow you know. When I meet some new people sometimes, they often immediately assume, that I have a certain education and amount of money...just because I can dress well (and its not expensive at all) and I can talk about certain topics a little. Its not that I am trying anything, thats just my taste but some people think you have to be "from up there" to have a certain taste and speak a certain way. It makes me angry cause it shows how out of touch with reality some folks are and how much prejudices they have. I dont condone what she did...but she basicly used stereotypes and positive prejudice to get her ways. And they fell for it.
Big money to dress well are not needed at all. And you are already 1 step ahead. I had a nice watch. Amazing(I lost it. Bought online I can't even remember). It looked like super expensive and fancy. It was 100 euro. A girl stayed with me the whole night and slept with me because she thought I was rich.. It was also the only night I used taxi because my shitty car was repairing. And we stayed at her hotel (she was a tourist) when she found out I was a normie she really was pissed off lol
No one was really harmed, only Rachel, but Anna didn't steal from her, Rachel herself made the decision to pay for everything knowing she couldn't and suffered the consequences. P.s. It is worth mentioning that despite being wrong and knowing that Rachel needed the money, Anna never intended to harm her or anyone else.
I love the way people are so disgusted by her cheating and lying to get ahead, yet that's what so many people do to end up in these lavish lifestyles, and it is accepted. Politicians fall into this category for sure, and with the citizens tax money, no less
I do agree, not that Anna shouldn’t pay, but so many more need to and don’t. Trump included. So it doesn’t make what she did ok in any way. I’m disgusted by all who do
But that's how borrowing works even for just normal small loans..you need to show you're good for it somehow..like some proof of ability to pay back.now the size of what you borrow determines how much weight you need to have on your end.Anna was to be given 40million..she played her part for that kind of cash
@@mizzcatt7691 its not just about the loans although i do find that ridiculous. People wanted to buy her things, house her, donate to her “organization” which was the whole point of the benefit they almost had. Where rich people literally just give money to other rich people to kickstart a business. Its like pretending to be rich instantly made the NYC elite wanna give her things
@@silasgs9257 that's how it is everywhere..not only NYC the elite roll with their own and give deals to their own hence the gap between the rich and not so rich.
I admire her so much because she showed everyone how people will do anything to befriended with "rich" "famous" people ... If she stayed a Sorokin nobody would've cared about her or gave her time. Anna Delvey is a portrayal of the FAKENESS of our sad social reality!!
Then you’re just as dumb as the people she conned. Anna wasn’t on this righteous path to show the worlds vanity. She was a narcissistic con woman that was willing to lie, cheat and steal her way to the top. She was worse than the rest of them. And she still thinks she did nothing wrong. She has serious borderline personality disorder. Yet, you’re here praising her.
@@MyLifeDIVAA I literally just posted this!!omg!like those 2 can take over the place just jetting all over scamming people as a couple lol..they are so alike and lack remorse when busted
@@mizzcatt7691 yes because the thesis of their social experiment keeps proving true. I get why they don't feel remorse. Why are the social climbers that attached to them for upward mobility not held to the same standard of being ashamed or remorseful? I get it. Not my MO, but I get its psychology.
You admire her for lying? She is an egocentric maniac. The difference between her and other psychopaths is that she had the guts to actually lie and commit fraud. Doesn't even remotely make her admirable, at all.
Honestly, they both racked up a 62k bill in Morocco… the fact that the woman who was ‘conned’ expected that holiday for free does say a lot about her too…
A freeloader. She’s only there for the free dresses and dinners. That’s a type of person to expect money from others. A friend, who when the going gets tough, will immediately leave you. And If given a chance will immediately out you.
I mean.. if you invite me to another country telling me you will pay for the whole trip because you can proudly afford it , how am I supposed to feel when the bills come & I am the one finally having to pay 6:12 Knowing I don’t have that money ? If it’s an invitation, I could even come without my wallet, the payment is not my issue. 🤷🏽♀️
If she were Mexican or Arab she would've been shipped out before anyone even heard of her. And now she's out there wandering around still NOT in Germany.
Anyone else watch this right after finishing the Netflix series?!! 😯😅 I'm very surprised at how "accurate" these news reports are to the Netflix series 👏👏
Damn, she is such a fascinating person to watch and listen to. And the way she says things makes you think "Yeah, of course she was serious about her foundation and didn't feel like she was scamming anyone." She's clearly such a massive narcissist but she's so compelling and so smart that you can't help but sort of admire her for pulling off what she did.
what you guys arent realizing is that the netflix show is based off of the real thing. it is NOT making anna seem like the good guy. she is making herself sound like the good guy not the writers of the show. the show just mimicked her perfectly. if you watch all the interviews she honestly believes she did nothing wrong and thats just what the show made the actress do. the show is not in favor of her its just showing us how she is in favor of herself and that she really believes she didnt do anything wrong.
It literally prefaces with this show is completely true except for the parts that aren’t, like it makes itself clear that it’s not a fully accurate biopic or retelling of the events anyone who believes it is rlly just not paying attention
@@udhav423 the story is loosely the same, the girl pretends to be an heiress and swindles people while thinking she did nothing wrong. But little specifics throughout the show we don't know.
Fascinating…. I think the one she lied to most was herself. She was delusional; that’s why she doesn’t think she did anything wrong. It’s easier to convince people when you really believe it yourself.
But that’s basically what life is about. You gotta be a little delusional if you want strive for the things you want. No, it doesn’t make it right what she did, but this is a dog-eat-dog world ESPECIALLY when it comes to the uber rich. How do you think politicians do it? How do you think salespeople do it? Anna was song what just about every other rich person was doing, only the illegal route 🤷🏾♀️😭
@@seabreeze667 She's not glorified at all in the show. At least not for me. The show actually showed who she really is. A superficial, sociopath con artist.
@Gábor Vág Netflix paid Sorokin $320,000 for the rights to her life story. But the New York Attorney General's office sued Sorokin in 2019 using the state's Son of Sam law, which prohibits those convicted of a crime from profiting from its publicity and forced the majority of these funds to be used to pay restitution and fines per the judgment. There is enough news, documentary and current affairs shows about her, do we really need a TV drama about her? How many criminals get paid $320,000 for their crimes??
@@KOOLGREENS Again, was that based solely off the show? Anna did stuff in real life like talk Rachel into selling her car to give the money to Anna who then just spent it on herself.
@@Hot-Dog-Racing base off both, let’s be real if Anna, didn’t fake her lifestyle, would you really think Rachel would befriend her. Just like the others who easily gave money to her!
@ Kristin elizabeth - don't be sorry - most humas are born with the ability to show empathy for people placed in difficult situations while others are like you.
The thing is she's not regretting her actions. It's very clear the way she speaks. and everyone around her giving a value for her action. She did everything knowingly...She's yet to live freely and everyone is defending and supporting her. very sad
@@skontheroad yeah but she’s giving interviews and she was in prison for two years. And now she’s fighting to stay in USA and most of them defending her. I didn’t see the court orders so maybe I was wrong about her prison time. Just commented based what was on the video
Yep, she has that spoiled brat mentality, and that rich b*tch accent, like Paris Hilton, and telling stale ass jokes like those rich tramps, the Wilson sisters did on White Chicks.
she had a real business project, she just didn't have money and the way she came about it was so bad. she's good at convincing people, she could've gotten some people invest in her, instead of signing fake checks
It’s funny how Anna was spending so much money on Rachel yet Rachel cried when she was charged for Anna spendings …Rachel was perfectly fine mooching off Anna . Honestly I don’t feel bad for Rachel
In general women like these scare me and is why as a woman I don’t have much girlfriends. Seems like there’s a lot of betrayal and indulgence at someones expense
yeah when i watched the whole morocco thing, i would have a panic attack if the hotel staff cornered me and i couldn't pay. she was not stressed at all, lol. she just had someone else pay for it as usual.
Her story proves that people can easily be fooled just by your actions. This is embarrassing honestly. I was born, and lived in New York my whole life and feel now- kinda annoyed that people here just easily judge you.
people in everywhere in this world easily judge you too, not only in Newyork. Im in Asia and people can just judge you whole life on your face's shape. lol
I think this speaks volumes about us, society. The fact that a person that dresses well, speaks well, etc can get away with SO MUCH! and they say appearances don't matter...ha!
Stop your hypocrite here. Between a rich new friend and a poor new friend, you'd love to choose to befriend the rich one too. Being rich shows undeniably attractive and credit to a human being. I don't say you have to do everything for rich people but nothing wrong for liking rich.
Anna delvey is iconic. As for her friend Rachel she was just upset Anna’s money wasn’t real. She was a social climber enjoying the luxuries at the expense of Anna. I’m not saying what Anna did is right, but she did it with such class and grace of course no one questioned her she almost committed the perfect crime.
Something definitely unsettling about this young woman......"I was an only child, till my parents had another child when I was 13yrs old........so yeah I think of myself as an only child" Doesn't think she has a sibling? Man she's cold 🥶void of empathy or emotion other than greed, arrogance.......
@@MsRuggy80 Absolutely ! When talking about her family she...at that moment you could see in her face......almost disdain/ contemped....how DARE her parents have another child. I'd say there is no love lost between her and her mum/ dad/ sister. They are for sure victims of her.....I'd sleep with my bedroom door locked !!
Absolutely she dispicable, I wonder what her parents and sibling think about all this and would love to hear what they have to say about this con artist.
@@JB-hb7fd Exactly. She's the very definition of a sociopath. Not trying to sound like an armchair psychiatrist, but, the lack of emotion, the "I'm a victim" attitude... wouldn't be surprised if we see her in another real life series, for harming someone. If anything, she'd do it just for the money to fund her "lavish" lifestyle. It's truly screwed up, when society pays terrible people, for doing terrible things.
So a little girl screws over some rich people and bankers, who have been screwing people over for decades, and she gets charged, held in detention, and deported.
@Kimberly Love A regular girl who only got interested in Anna for her money and used Anna for free meals and drinks. That regular girl only fell into the trap because she was using Anna just like Anna was using her. :)
@Kimberly Love If the 'regular' girl wasn't greedy enough to accept someone like Anna as a long term friend and never felt suspicious about the free dinner, drinks and the lavish travel, she only attracted someone who's as greedy as herself into her life. :) You should know, as an adult, nothing is given free to you. And when some stranger offers something free, even a five year old is educated to say no. :)
Imagine how humiliating this must be for the parents and brother. Your daughter lies about her parents because she’s embarrassed that they are normal hard working people and not wealthy like she said. Also as a brother it must hurt to hear her say she was a single child until her parents had another child but she has always seen herself as only child. Basically doesn’t care about the brother. 😳
@@gertiesiegel3912 she likely because jealous of her baby brother becoming the new focus of attention from her parents. She obviously craves attention. It’s no coincidence that she left home after she no longer enjoyed being the sole source of attention from her parents. She viewed her brother as competition for parental affection. She had assumed she always would be the only child. The arrival of her brother was a shock to her system from which she never recovered and never could accept. Her brother had displaced her in the family pecking order as far as she believed.
@@scootaymildo1070 she put 60k on the card in hopes that it would be paid back. Prior to this, Rachel saw and experienced many times how Anna wouldn’t pay bills due or leave others footing the bill. What’s more, the social and eventual potential monetary windfall from just being associated with Anna was worth the risk for Rachel but it didn’t pay off as she hoped for. Buddy, learn to accept opinions contrary to yours. Just because I didn’t express an opinion the way you wanted doesn’t mean I didn’t give it “much thought” Take care kiddo
@@mikefj2004 "In the hopes that she would be paid back"? That's the part that's hard to rationalise if you're suggesting that Rachel knew she was a scammer. Make it make sense, kiddo.
I don’t know if I’d say Rachel knew Anna was a con but I think Rachel used her because she thought being around Anna would boost her “social rating” and of course it backfired.
Rachel was no victim. she was using Anna for the free stuff and got what she deserved for her greed. now she enjoys playing the victim and capitalizing on it.
Her friend was enjoying the ride until she was not. She was in for the ride as, long as she was not paying for it. She made money from her misfortune regardless the $62,000 Amex. Cry me a river she is not innocent either.
She should not be treated as a celebrity. it seems like they try to justify what she did. In fact, she is the result of a society,, that keeps up appearances, a success and perfection that is real only in Instagram, and in the world of make believe she lives in, where ethics does not exist. Sad but true.
yeah she was posting all this stuff on instagram that made her look like some kind of supermodel or celebrity. she just exploited other's clout chasing tendencies.
It's impressive that she got away for it so long, but it doesn't make her a good person. She scammed the rich but also someone who earned little money. German banks would never have fallen for her lies :)
If she could have done good she would have been genuinely successful. I give it to her for her motivation courage and drive. She did what she set out to do and lived the life she wanted although in a field manner. That opulent lifestyle is such a waste when there's so many humans starving with no nutrients clean water adequate housing clothing and education. Sickening
She was close to it. If she did due diligence she couldve made it regardless of the documents asked. If I got it right, she got $200k cash. But she spent it lavishly, tipping here and there. If she didn't celebrate early, it could've went well. I'd like to think of it as how others would do a business proposal, yes there were KPIs and metrics and stuff but still, nothing yet is still proven until it's physical and ROIs are made. She could've made it. She almost did. She could've made little loans to prove her worth but meh, she chose to go big and get distracted with the lavish lifestyle. :/ The only thing I am amazed about her is her balls. If it was me, I would've chickened out.
Narcissist or not, she had a choice, but that choice was meant to do selfish things. Most people admire her convincing skill. However, she chose to not learn how might the consequences pay off. You can’t just pinpoint the bad in her, I believe her convincing skill is remarkable. Suppose someone’s on par with Sorokin’s convincing skill, and had learnt how the consequences might pay off. Could you imagine?
She lived the life of a rich person, & didn't have a dime in her pocket. She fooled intelligent, rich ppl into believing, she was one of them. She made millionaires, show their true colors (don't let that go over your head). She used ppl, who thought they were using her. She was a foreigner, who came to America & made rich ppl look stupid (& they were embarrassed). Why shouldn't she be proud of her accomplishments? 😀😂😀🤣😭. At least she didn't take from the poor 🤷🏾♀️
She took from middle class which is almost the poor here in the USA these days anyway. Rachael was just another middle class NYC chick, she wasn't wealthy. So, Anna didn't take from the rich only, she conned just about anyone who was naive.
@@julief634 Rachel doesn't count. She tried to use Anna, & Anna turned it around, & used her. Rachel, got all her money back, plus some with all her interviews & book deals. She's no victim.
Yeah, Rachel needs to stop taking about this. She was NOT a victim here. She is vindictive and ridiculous. Rachel has made more than triple what she claims Anna “took” from her with all these interviews. Plus, American Express squashed the debt. So Rachel never lost one dime of her own money. Yet it hasn’t stopped her from playing victim and raking in the dough on these interviews acting like she’s picked on. I’d like to slap her when she says, “I wish I’d never met Anna.” Yeah right! Over $600,000 later, right Rachel? That’s how much you’ve made from these interviews. You’re not out one dime and are half a million dollars richer than before you met Anna. She was found NOT GUILTY of the crime you accuse her of and YOU ARE STILL RUNNING YOUR MOUTH about this. It makes me wonder who was the victim here????
AmEx should have never wiped the debt for the trip that Rachel took! It’s not like Anna stole her card and went on a spending spree… they went together and lived the high life.
@@Dh-mo6xz what exactly was she a victim of? she went on a trip and put down her cards. you should never run up a bill expecting to not come out of pocket for it. Anna didn’t steal Rachel’s cards and have a spending spree! Rachel did plenty of spending on her own, thinking Anna would pay for everything. Rachel wasn’t a good friend, she was a user. the user got used 🤷🏼♀️
Reminds me of the guy who tried to buy the NY Islanders by lying to people and he was incredibly close. It came down to one late loan payment. So, now you have to think about all the people who faked it until they made it - and actually made it - and now they actually are rich and no one’s the wiser…
These people wanted to be conned. If she is so rich, why does she need me to pay when she knows that I am NOT so rich? She's wrong and yeah, she deserved her punishment but people have to stop trying to think they are going to get something for nothing.
@@adriennemiller.music. I know that but when she asked the one woman to put 10's of thousands of dollars on a credit card for a trip, that should have been a sign. That is what slow manipulators do, get you comfortable before they use you.
@@gigilamoore2656 if she “seemingly” spent way more before for the woman’s things, then of course they will believe it’s just an exception, and no problem.
@@adriennemiller.music. We going to agree to disagree on that. If anybody asks me to cover more than a few hundred bucks that would be one thing but the amount that the woman used her work credit card to cover, no.
Coz Anna seems to make it and did it the "getting something out of nothing" as Netflix sees fit to glorify and glamorize a con-woman with royalties and a memoir TV show.
If we can put the morality aside for a second, I really can’t help but admire this girl in a lot of ways. She knows what she want and goes for it. If she’d done so in a more legit way she would have no doubt smashed it.
She should've just used her abilities (crafting an image, charming people, photographic memory, building connections, understanding the rules of the game and playing it, being unbelievably confident, seeing what others don't, being a visionary, and being extremely dedicated to her mission) to get into a good school, build the right connections (which she's more than capable of), work for others for a while and saved and invested her earnings, build a smaller business and make it grow. She's quite smart and brave and even hardworking, she just wasn't patient enough to do it the right way. When you do it the wrong way, there would always be some holes that you'll miss. Unless you're extremely clever, cautious, and knowledgeable. She did not even know all the fundamentals of what she's trying to get into (specially at first), which in her case is business (but she did great in truly understanding and playing the game of society, culture, and fashion). She didn't even know/anticipated that they will have to investigate her background (the one thing that really turned everything into a disaster; had she only been able to receive the loan and build ADF; she would've been able to also pay people back and clear all the mess she's made). And if she really wanted it fast and easy, she could've just married some rich guy that's easy to fool and used his resources to build her business. But if that's more complicated, SHE SHOULD'VE JUST GOTTEN INVESTORS to invest in her business. She didn't want anyone to compromise her vision, but she could've just looked at all the areas the investors would want to change it because it's not practical enough-- and find different ways to negotiate and convince them into following her vision exactly as it is. She's so good at manipulating people, why can't she do that? And also, why was she so reckless? She should've just pretend to be reckless (because she's so rich she couldn't care any less) but still be careful with her next steps and not be reckless in private. And the last thing is, she was so good at building connections but she can't make them last. She always does something stupid to ruin it. And if it's about the whole credit card thing and borrowing money from friends, again she could've created business/es in Germany that could support her expenses, and if she's really determined to con people in New York, and could no longer have time to manage a business in her home country, she could've just build it first, make it successful and sell it. But then again if it's already successful, she would no longer need to con. SHE'S SO CAPABLE OF BEING COMPLETELY SELF-MADE AND GENUINELY SUCCESSFUL BUT CHOSE TO BE A FAKE TRUST FUND BABY INSTEAD 🤦♀️ but who knows, maybe this is what she really wants; to be an iconic criminal that got everyone's attention for fooling the elite.
Agree it was frustrating but I think when you have a narcissistic to that level she cannot believe that things won't go her way. Her delusion is too big for her own good
I would like to say that I feel bad for the people that Anna lied to and wrong. If I were to be in that situation, I know I would feel how Rachel Williams felt. However, with that being said, I find it mind-blowing that she not only thought of this charade, but was able to execute it for quite awhile.
@@jakubpaczula711, check my priorities aye? My comment had nothing to do with banks or rich people. You took my comment out of context as I was talking about an individual (this Williams) and not a corporate entity. Try to stay on topic, thank you!

That little nervous laugh. She belittles all those around her and believes she is the smartest person in the room. No remorse. No shame. Her story is a contradiction from the start of the paragraph until the end
Call me crazy, but this Rachel chick really seems like just the type the showcase her out to be. You can tell she was a follower, you can tell she was LOVING living it up with Anna.
The more I watch the Netflix show the more I find this women interesting… and the more I see “This whole story is completely true, except for all of the parts that are totally made up” right before the writer talks to someone who doesn’t want to speak or be mentioned, the more I believe some of those “made up” parts might have some truth behind them…. It’s almost like they’re taunting the people who left out serious parts in this story..
The problem is that society treat these kind of people as if they were truly stars and have accomplished something and they have not. They are getting attention (Netflix, film producers) for being nobodies and scammers! SO SAD. And then we ask ourselves how is it that these kind of individuals exist...
im not trying to support her for what she did, but honestly, this girl is freaking smart. people can call her a scammer, but i say she was smart and knew how to delay and lie her way to wealth. its also the fault of the rich people, Anna just says rich father and everyone is on the knees kissing her feet.
That’s bc it’s a farce. Wealth has frequently has no correlation to general intelligence, and for the following generations raised in wealthy homes, one might conclude it damages multiple of the intelligences.
@@chichinangah6470 - Ok, I see what you're saying - and I don't disagree with one word of it [yet not all white, such as myself, can reach the rareified heights that she did]. That said however, what if this woman was NOT white? What would you response be to the original comment from the OP? :)
Just want to point out that if you have a moral code, it doesn’t matter what other people have done. You make your decisions independently (i.e. other people are also crooks, that doesn’t make what Anna did okay)
US laws prohibit profits of any kind from proven crimes, however she’s supposedly being paid as a consultant for the documentary about her. Kinda bullshit really
I don't get this Rachel woman, she was okay with having free drinks, and enjoying free cabs and gifts, and yet when she got scammed, Anna became the worst of the worst ... Who is the bigger user here???
Its interesting to watch those who identify with the victims and those who relate to anna. She's an extremely intriguing character either way you look at it. Rachel is a hard person to sympathize for, a moocher quick to play up her victimhood. I wish "the worst thing that happened to me" was so beneficial. My favorite part of the series was when she got cross-examined her.
I'm sorry but Rachel has to be one of the biggest hypocrites out there. Pretty sure she wouldn't have given Anna the time of day had she introduced herself as a Russian/German immigrant with no funds trying to make it in New York's art scene. I don't condone taking advantage of people but this girl could have simply not associated with Anna. I mean, no one forced her. Also, why did she partake in those expensive dinners all the time and why did she agree to go on that ridiculously expensive trip if she knew she did not have the funds to pay for her own expenses at least? I would personally not feel comfortable having someone pay for all that, no matter what story they are trying to sell you.
at screen 7.50 where she mentions $62,000 dollars all charged to her card, my heart sank ugh. But I'm glad they weren't stranded and was able to make it back home. It's great that she had credit card limit that high considering she only made $60,000 annual salary. Most CC companies these days wouldn't even hand out a CC for even $10,000 limit even if you have no debt and made over $150,000 a year.
They need to deport her, now. Ban her for at least 10 years from entering America. How can they allow her to continue to stay her, it's disrespectful as hell.
She’s extremely intelligent and managed to do what she set up to do. What for gods sake she should be ashamed of? She didnt commit any violet crimes she just stole money from some rich fucks who inherited it and who obviously didnt have her skillset or she wouldnt fool them. This is evolution at it’s best. Honestly good for her.
And here we are two years later and she made it to Dancing With The Stars, getting booted off the first elimination round, taking away "nothing" from the show/experience...
@@KBTadieh - whay whay whay white privilege whay whay whay. Not every what person has white privilege, it's more for the rich white kids, but you would never understand, you're way to busy blaming all white people
It's amazing how many people profited from her fame, I think they owe her credit for that cause all I see that story actually has a good end and we also discovered that Anna is not only a con-artist but also an artist. I hope that society accepts her beside of what she has done cause I don't think that a nobody finding a way to fit in is as serious as murdering someone. Actually it is a masterpiece of courtesy, no matter how it hurts the balls of loan advisers, I think she deserved a place in U.S. as an example of David in the world of Goliaths of high society fit-into bravery and so rich kids in U.S. can learn what it's like to be a real self-made 🌟
Honestly what this woman did is the exact same thing people do on these platforms. Aka. UA-camrs, Instagram, etc., They fabricate their lives until those fabrications become facts. So in honesty that's on the people who took her at face value. Just because you see money on her, in clothes, shopping etc., Doesn't mean it's real. Don't believe everything you see and hear, I mean you would think these rich folk's would know this. 🤷🏾♀️
The fact someone can act like they are the richest of the rich and have people not question them, is beyond me.
Why? All you need to do, is to observe people from these cricles for a while and if you can act a little and put some shamelessness on it...you can fool elites cause they are just used to people with certain manners and dont encounter scammers that often. They cant even imagine a "normie" would even get close to where they hang out. People can be very shallow you know.

Apparently, yes.
Honestly, no, no fcuking way

Poor wall street trust fund babies 😕
No one was really harmed, only Rachel, but Anna didn't steal from her, Rachel herself made the decision to pay for everything knowing she couldn't and suffered the consequences.
P.s. It is worth mentioning that despite being wrong and knowing that Rachel needed the money, Anna never intended to harm her or anyone else.
@@MaidyMoon2005 Keep telling yourself that. This b*tch is a horrible lying psychopath and you all suck her up.
😂😂😂 love how blunt and to the point this comment is
I love the way people are so disgusted by her cheating and lying to get ahead, yet that's what so many people do to end up in these lavish lifestyles, and it is accepted. Politicians fall into this category for sure, and with the citizens tax money, no less
sadly, yes. :(
That is exactly what I think
How do you know we aren't disgusted by them as well?
I do agree, not that Anna shouldn’t pay, but so many more need to and don’t. Trump included. So it doesn’t make what she did ok in any way. I’m disgusted by all who do
Exactly.even legit network marketing companies are lying and scamming people and never get punished.why?
I think the biggest joke here is she had to pretend to be rich in order to convince people to give her money.
But that's how borrowing works even for just normal small loans..you need to show you're good for it somehow..like some proof of ability to pay back.now the size of what you borrow determines how much weight you need to have on your end.Anna was to be given 40million..she played her part for that kind of cash
@@mizzcatt7691 its not just about the loans although i do find that ridiculous. People wanted to buy her things, house her, donate to her “organization” which was the whole point of the benefit they almost had.
Where rich people literally just give money to other rich people to kickstart a business. Its like pretending to be rich instantly made the NYC elite wanna give her things
@@silasgs9257 that's how it is everywhere..not only NYC the elite roll with their own and give deals to their own hence the gap between the rich and not so rich.
But....that's how it's done.
It might be a joke but like, that's how she gets what she wants. Everything will work if you want to
A big part of this is people upset they latched on to someone who they thought was wealthy, and now they’re embarrassed
Exactly. Rachel is a leech who is sore that her friend turned out to be a normal girl and not an heiress she could continue to sponge off
Hahhahahhahhahhahha
Thats why she went to jail. She pissed off some very rich people she fooled.
Exactly!
THAT is about accurate.
If the Anna Delvey Foundation had worked, then she'd be a "success". And we would be commending her on clawing tooth and nail to get what she wanted.
EXACTLY, it made no sense why she had so many opportunities to get a job with the rich and actually be rich but she couldn’t stop lying
And for you, miss Gullible I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.
Her story isn't one to be commended and to emulate her for chronic prevarication says a lot about your lacking a moral compass.
When you are trying to put together a real business, you don't spend thousands staying in fancy hotels burning the credit you have just been given.
No. We'd STILL say she was a fraud because she never had the money and scammed to get it.
I admire her so much because she showed everyone how people will do anything to befriended with "rich" "famous" people ... If she stayed a Sorokin nobody would've cared about her or gave her time. Anna Delvey is a portrayal of the FAKENESS of our sad social reality!!
Then you’re just as dumb as the people she conned. Anna wasn’t on this righteous path to show the worlds vanity. She was a narcissistic con woman that was willing to lie, cheat and steal her way to the top. She was worse than the rest of them. And she still thinks she did nothing wrong. She has serious borderline personality disorder. Yet, you’re here praising her.
Funny this is how I feel about the Tinder Swindler. It's an exposition on people's superficially.
@@MyLifeDIVAA I literally just posted this!!omg!like those 2 can take over the place just jetting all over scamming people as a couple lol..they are so alike and lack remorse when busted
@@mizzcatt7691 yes because the thesis of their social experiment keeps proving true. I get why they don't feel remorse. Why are the social climbers that attached to them for upward mobility not held to the same standard of being ashamed or remorseful? I get it. Not my MO, but I get its psychology.
You admire her for lying? She is an egocentric maniac. The difference between her and other psychopaths is that she had the guts to actually lie and commit fraud. Doesn't even remotely make her admirable, at all.
Honestly, they both racked up a 62k bill in Morocco… the fact that the woman who was ‘conned’ expected that holiday for free does say a lot about her too…
A freeloader. She’s only there for the free dresses and dinners. That’s a type of person to expect money from others. A friend, who when the going gets tough, will immediately leave you. And If given a chance will immediately out you.
Exactly, did Rachel think she didn't owe any money for the Morocco trip?
@@kittyk2725 Of course she didn't, because Anna told her she would cover the cost of the trip.
@@Nfiacko Ahhhh thanks. I must of missed that part.
I mean.. if you invite me to another country telling me you will pay for the whole trip because you can proudly afford it , how am I supposed to feel when the bills come & I am the one finally having to pay 6:12 Knowing I don’t have that money ? If it’s an invitation, I could even come without my wallet, the payment is not my issue. 🤷🏽♀️
If she were Mexican or Arab she would've been shipped out before anyone even heard of her. And now she's out there wandering around still NOT in Germany.
Right!
Anyone else watch this right after finishing the Netflix series?!! 😯😅 I'm very surprised at how "accurate" these news reports are to the Netflix series 👏👏
WHY???? TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION....AS THE SAYING GOES!!! :)
Yeah they got it down to even the clothes she was wearing. It's interesting I didn't even know about her until I saw that on Netflix
Yes 😅
I did and I was Hooked, I remember this story being a big thing here in NYC, I’m now more intrigued.
Me!
Rachel was willing to have someone else pay mega-bucks. That NEVER happens without strings.
It happens with the mega rich. 62k is nothing to them. Only the middle class keeps receipts
Damn, she is such a fascinating person to watch and listen to. And the way she says things makes you think "Yeah, of course she was serious about her foundation and didn't feel like she was scamming anyone." She's clearly such a massive narcissist but she's so compelling and so smart that you can't help but sort of admire her for pulling off what she did.
Psychopathic and narcisstic people are charismatic and have Charme.
@@ML-wf3sq yep! That’s why people get duped by them or even form bonds with them!

what you guys arent realizing is that the netflix show is based off of the real thing. it is NOT making anna seem like the good guy. she is making herself sound like the good guy not the writers of the show. the show just mimicked her perfectly. if you watch all the interviews she honestly believes she did nothing wrong and thats just what the show made the actress do. the show is not in favor of her its just showing us how she is in favor of herself and that she really believes she didnt do anything wrong.
It literally prefaces with this show is completely true except for the parts that aren’t, like it makes itself clear that it’s not a fully accurate biopic or retelling of the events anyone who believes it is rlly just not paying attention
I just finished the show, very good.
@@catherinesmith5793 “except for the parts that aren’t” it just means they included several plots that didn’t exist irl. The story is still the same
They are still rewarding her bad behavior at the rate of $300,000.
@@udhav423 the story is loosely the same, the girl pretends to be an heiress and swindles people while thinking she did nothing wrong. But little specifics throughout the show we don't know.
Fascinating…. I think the one she lied to most was herself. She was delusional; that’s why she doesn’t think she did anything wrong. It’s easier to convince people when you really believe it yourself.
An extreme 100/100 narcissistic psychopath For ReAL 💯
Exactly. Delusional narcissists can accomplish a great deal.
But that’s basically what life is about. You gotta be a little delusional if you want strive for the things you want. No, it doesn’t make it right what she did, but this is a dog-eat-dog world ESPECIALLY when it comes to the uber rich. How do you think politicians do it? How do you think salespeople do it?

And Netflix sees fit to glorify and glamorize a con-woman with royalties and a memoir TV show.
@@seabreeze667 She's not glorified at all in the show. At least not for me. The show actually showed who she really is. A superficial, sociopath con artist.
@Gábor Vág Netflix paid Sorokin $320,000 for the rights to her life story. But the New York Attorney General's office sued Sorokin in 2019 using the state's Son of Sam law, which prohibits those convicted of a crime from profiting from its publicity and forced the majority of these funds to be used to pay restitution and fines per the judgment. There is enough news, documentary and current affairs shows about her, do we really need a TV drama about her? How many criminals get paid $320,000 for their crimes??
Some people are so obsessed with being around the right people ,they will believe anything
FINALLY a new interview with Anna Sorokin. For all the talk and controversy there was only 1 professional interview.
I’m sorry but I don’t feel bad for Rachel. There’s a reason the jury didn’t find Anna guilty for the Rachel / Moroccan situation .
Do you base that off the real story or how they portrayed it in the show? Because they really changed the narrative with that whole fiasco.
Rachel was clearly a mooch
@@KOOLGREENS Again, was that based solely off the show? Anna did stuff in real life like talk Rachel into selling her car to give the money to Anna who then just spent it on herself.
@@Hot-Dog-Racing base off both, let’s be real if Anna, didn’t fake her lifestyle, would you really think Rachel would befriend her. Just like the others who easily gave money to her!

Sociopaths are pathological liars I'm not surprised how arrogant she answers the interview.
I was waiting to see such a comment. She's a sociopath
The thing is she's not regretting her actions. It's very clear the way she speaks. and everyone around her giving a value for her action. She did everything knowingly...She's yet to live freely and everyone is defending and supporting her. very sad
"She's yet to live freely"
What does that mean?
100% agree!
The jury certainly didn't defend or support her! Nor did they say she would be "living freely"!
@@skontheroad yeah but she’s giving interviews and she was in prison for two years. And now she’s fighting to stay in USA and most of them defending her. I didn’t see the court orders so maybe I was wrong about her prison time. Just commented based what was on the video
Yep, she has that spoiled brat mentality, and that rich b*tch accent, like Paris Hilton, and telling stale ass jokes like those rich tramps, the Wilson sisters did on White Chicks.
she had a real business project, she just didn't have money and the way she came about it was so bad. she's good at convincing people, she could've gotten some people invest in her, instead of signing fake checks
For this Rachel girl and others like her, it was good to be treated with lavish dinners and trips and not ever expect to pay for any of it?
Exactly! The friend was using her also by taking part in all of the free lavish dinners etc
@ale rodriguez completely agree she can't admit to herself shes superficial and materialistic too.
When Golddigger meets Golddigger

No, because she is paid to be her friend that accompanies her. A hanger on. That's how it works.

Her story proves that people can easily be fooled just by your actions. This is embarrassing honestly. I was born, and lived in New York my whole life and feel now- kinda annoyed that people here just easily judge you.
people in everywhere in this world easily judge you too, not only in Newyork. Im in Asia and people can just judge you whole life on your face's shape. lol
I think this speaks volumes about us, society. The fact that a person that dresses well, speaks well, etc can get away with SO MUCH! and they say appearances don't matter...ha!
Stop your hypocrite here. Between a rich new friend and a poor new friend, you'd love to choose to befriend the rich one too. Being rich shows undeniably attractive and credit to a human being.

I’m not saying what Anna did is right, but she did it with such class and grace of course no one questioned her she almost committed the perfect crime.
No one questioned her?? Ok, umm before long, EVERYONE was questioning her!
Brilliant! Truly the American dream.
Something definitely unsettling about this young woman......"I was an only child, till my parents had another child when I was 13yrs old........so yeah I think of myself as an only child" Doesn't think she has a sibling? Man she's cold 🥶void of empathy or emotion other than greed, arrogance.......

If anything, she'd do it just for the money to fund her "lavish" lifestyle.
It's truly screwed up, when society pays terrible people, for doing terrible things.
That's fucking sociopathic behavior.

@Kimberly Love If the 'regular' girl wasn't greedy enough to accept someone like Anna as a long term friend and never felt suspicious about the free dinner, drinks and the lavish travel, she only attracted someone who's as greedy as herself into her life. :) You should know, as an adult, nothing is given free to you. And when some stranger offers something free, even a five year old is educated to say no. :)
That’s what I’m thinking!
Imagine how humiliating this must be for the parents and brother. Your daughter lies about her parents because she’s embarrassed that they are normal hard working people and not wealthy like she said. Also as a brother it must hurt to hear her say she was a single child until her parents had another child but she has always seen herself as only child. Basically doesn’t care about the brother. 😳
And that they helped her get into a good college and she threw it away
I cringed when I heard that too 😖 ... no Humanity.
Her selfishness shines through doesn't it. Classic narcissist.
Yeah that was a massive red flag - basically dismissing your sibling out of existence
@@gertiesiegel3912 she likely because jealous of her baby brother becoming the new focus of attention from her parents. She obviously craves attention. It’s no coincidence that she left home after she no longer enjoyed being the sole source of attention from her parents. She viewed her brother as competition for parental affection. She had assumed she always would be the only child. The arrival of her brother was a shock to her system from which she never recovered and never could accept. Her brother had displaced her in the family pecking order as far as she believed.
When you learn that you don't have to pick a side, than these stories are even more fascinating
I have no sympathy for Rachel AT ALL. She knew Anna’s con and was willing to go with it until it wasn’t convenient for her anymore.
She knew she was a con artist but then put $60,000 on her own card? How tf does that make any sense? I feel you haven't given this much thought...
@@scootaymildo1070 she put 60k on the card in hopes that it would be paid back. Prior to this, Rachel saw and experienced many times how Anna wouldn’t pay bills due or leave others footing the bill. What’s more, the social and eventual potential monetary windfall from just being associated with Anna was worth the risk for Rachel but it didn’t pay off as she hoped for.

Rachel was a mooch . She had no problem hangin out with Anna when Anna was paying for everything
I don’t know if I’d say Rachel knew Anna was a con but I think Rachel used her because she thought being around Anna would boost her “social rating” and of course it backfired.
The money was paid back for Rachel. And she had a whole lot left over, from her book deal. She's no victim!

She is more relaxed in this interview and more honest, then in 60 Minutes Australia. She definitely has a talent 🤓
She should not be treated as a celebrity. it seems like they try to justify what she did. In fact, she is the result of a society,, that keeps up appearances, a success and perfection that is real only in Instagram, and in the world of make believe she lives in, where ethics does not exist.

That opulent lifestyle is such a waste when there's so many humans starving with no nutrients clean water adequate housing clothing and education.
Sickening
What's "a field manner"?
She was close to it. If she did due diligence she couldve made it regardless of the documents asked. If I got it right, she got $200k cash. But she spent it lavishly, tipping here and there. If she didn't celebrate early, it could've went well.
I'd like to think of it as how others would do a business proposal, yes there were KPIs and metrics and stuff but still, nothing yet is still proven until it's physical and ROIs are made. She could've made it. She almost did. She could've made little loans to prove her worth but meh, she chose to go big and get distracted with the lavish lifestyle. :/

If we can put the morality aside for a second, I really can’t help but admire this girl in a lot of ways. She knows what she want and goes for it. If she’d done so in a more legit way she would have no doubt smashed it.
she’s the epitome of fake it till you make it
She should've just used her abilities (crafting an image, charming people, photographic memory, building connections, understanding the rules of the game and playing it, being unbelievably confident, seeing what others don't, being a visionary, and being extremely dedicated to her mission) to get into a good school, build the right connections (which she's more than capable of), work for others for a while and saved and invested her earnings, build a smaller business and make it grow. She's quite smart and brave and even hardworking, she just wasn't patient enough to do it the right way. When you do it the wrong way, there would always be some holes that you'll miss. Unless you're extremely clever, cautious, and knowledgeable. She did not even know all the fundamentals of what she's trying to get into (specially at first), which in her case is business (but she did great in truly understanding and playing the game of society, culture, and fashion). She didn't even know/anticipated that they will have to investigate her background (the one thing that really turned everything into a disaster; had she only been able to receive the loan and build ADF; she would've been able to also pay people back and clear all the mess she's made). And if she really wanted it fast and easy, she could've just married some rich guy that's easy to fool and used his resources to build her business. But if that's more complicated, SHE SHOULD'VE JUST GOTTEN INVESTORS to invest in her business. She didn't want anyone to compromise her vision, but she could've just looked at all the areas the investors would want to change it because it's not practical enough-- and find different ways to negotiate and convince them into following her vision exactly as it is. She's so good at manipulating people, why can't she do that? And also, why was she so reckless? She should've just pretend to be reckless (because she's so rich she couldn't care any less) but still be careful with her next steps and not be reckless in private. And the last thing is, she was so good at building connections but she can't make them last. She always does something stupid to ruin it. And if it's about the whole credit card thing and borrowing money from friends, again she could've created business/es in Germany that could support her expenses, and if she's really determined to con people in New York, and could no longer have time to manage a business in her home country, she could've just build it first, make it successful and sell it. But then again if it's already successful, she would no longer need to con. SHE'S SO CAPABLE OF BEING COMPLETELY SELF-MADE AND GENUINELY SUCCESSFUL BUT CHOSE TO BE A FAKE TRUST FUND BABY INSTEAD 🤦♀️ but who knows, maybe this is what she really wants; to be an iconic criminal that got everyone's attention for fooling the elite.
Wow you definitely think like me. This is what I thought she should have done
people like her don't go to college.
Agree it was frustrating but I think when you have a narcissistic to that level she cannot believe that things won't go her way. Her delusion is too big for her own good
I had the same thought, she is so intelligent and she could be actually rich if she played her cards right instead of doing total fraud.
@@qitae exactly! She truly was, well at least in my estimation, a textbook narcissist, and that really was her Achilles heel.
I would like to say that I feel bad for the people that Anna lied to and wrong. If I were to be in that situation, I know I would feel how Rachel Williams felt. However, with that being said, I find it mind-blowing that she not only thought of this charade, but was able to execute it for quite awhile.
it's mostly banks and wealthy people. they do the same thing on daily basis and yet get no punishment. check your priorities
@@jakubpaczula711, check my priorities aye? My comment had nothing to do with banks or rich people. You took my comment out of context as I was talking about an individual (this Williams) and not a corporate entity. Try to stay on topic, thank you!
@@jakubpaczula711 Stop your hypocrite here. Between a rich new friend and a poor new friend, you'd love to choose to befriend the rich one too. Being rich shows undeniably attractive and credit to a human being.
I don't say you have to do everything for rich people but nothing wrong for liking rich.
@@jakubpaczula711 Many people are rich because they very hardworking, disciplined, learn hard. Many poor people are super lazy to work, to learn, to think, only blaming. How abt that? You must be very jealous and malicious toward rich people, shows how broke you are .
@@jakubpaczula711 Sad for you because you hate the riches but still you want to be just like them.
“Her fans”??? Lmao 2:10 I swear, sometimes these interviewers and commentators are out of their minds narrating this girl
She describes her sibling as “another kid”. Some sister she is.
And when she said she looks at herself as a single child like wow lmaoo she’s something else
That little nervous laugh. She belittles all those around her and believes she is the smartest person in the room.
No remorse. No shame.
Her story is a contradiction from the start of the paragraph until the end
She is correct. She is smart
Am I the only one creeped out? She’s finds all of this funny. She’s proud of herself. Scary lady…
Stop giving this girl a platform.

I've canceled my Netflix account. Doing my part
I know., the story is old and stale
She's white... they'll give her everything including LITTLE jail time. Welcome to America
Jelous
Mark my words she will do it again she shows no remorse
Why should she feel remorse? She’s powerful and smart.
@@byefelicia8632 she is not smart. She sounds extremely dumb. Obviously those banker wanted to sleep with her and that's how she got that far.
@@byefelicia8632you meant to say narcissistic and sociopathic?
Someone really smart wouldn’t have been caught.
@@willy4170 Everyone gets caught dummy coz they were smart and confident enough to do it.
Why should she?
It is so true though- about the misogyny that Anna talked about. Men have done far worse and received less time.
Call me crazy, but this Rachel chick really seems like just the type the showcase her out to be. You can tell she was a follower, you can tell she was LOVING living it up with Anna.
The more I watch the Netflix show the more I find this women interesting… and the more I see “This whole story is completely true, except for all of the parts that are totally made up” right before the writer talks to someone who doesn’t want to speak or be mentioned, the more I believe some of those “made up” parts might have some truth behind them…. It’s almost like they’re taunting the people who left out serious parts in this story..
Girl played the hustle game and DAM she nearly got away with it ...banks nearly loaning her 20mill plus ....u gotta have BALLS to pull it off !!!!
The problem is that society treat these kind of people as if they were truly stars and have accomplished something and they have not. They are getting attention (Netflix, film producers) for being nobodies and scammers! SO SAD. And then we ask ourselves how is it that these kind of individuals exist...
We consume their failure
im not trying to support her for what she did, but honestly, this girl is freaking smart. people can call her a scammer, but i say she was smart and knew how to delay and lie her way to wealth. its also the fault of the rich people, Anna just says rich father and everyone is on the knees kissing her feet.
She is fascinating
I think that says a lot as well about the idiots who ate it up like creme brulee
Man for people giving rich people credit for being the smartest of us they sure get scammed easy.
ua-cam.com/video/kC8QdXELIB8/v-deo.html
That’s bc it’s a farce. Wealth has frequently has no correlation to general intelligence, and for the following generations raised in wealthy homes, one might conclude it damages multiple of the intelligences.
She has blonde girl privilege
They have connections..,, not smart…. Positioned well by association
'Fake it til you make it' is a game. If you were found out before you make it, you lose.
Her calling herself a "single child" because her sibling is 12 years younger, perfectly describes how narcissistic she is.
I thought elite suppose to be smart, I guess they’re not. 😂😂😂
Tinder Swindler and her could be a perfect couple 🙈🙆♀️
OMG can you imagine the chaos ???😮
They actually would she’s an Aquarius and he’s a Libra . Perfect match 😭
@@djhanecostin3905 they should hook up and then do a series on that
I would definitely watch that 😂
8 felony charges and How did she not get deported
How in the world did she get a $100,000 credit line with no income/employment?!
White privileg
@@chichinangah6470 that
It’s pretty easy to make yourself “a business” and secure a line of extensive credit. She never presented a picture of herself.
@@jenruth792 I would think banks check credit?
@@chichinangah6470 - Ok, I see what you're saying - and I don't disagree with one word of it [yet not all white, such as myself, can reach the rareified heights that she did].
That said however, what if this woman was NOT white? What would you response be to the original comment from the OP?
:)
Just want to point out that if you have a moral code, it doesn’t matter what other people have done. You make your decisions independently (i.e. other people are also crooks, that doesn’t make what Anna did okay)
Exactly.
Why give her the air time and I bet she got paid for this.
US laws prohibit profits of any kind from proven crimes, however she’s supposedly being paid as a consultant for the documentary about her. Kinda bullshit really
@@SquaretailDaddy yeah she got paid for that Netflix deal
Yep.
It's interesting story that will go down in history
I don't get this Rachel woman, she was okay with having free drinks, and enjoying free cabs and gifts, and yet when she got scammed, Anna became the worst of the worst ... Who is the bigger user here???
people always seem to treat the rich like they're more than human or somehow more intelligent...
She didn't even acknowledge her having a brother beyond her parents having another child. Wow.
there's definitely some thing mentally going on with her for sure
Yep that’s how self-centred she is! A real narcissist
Narcissism at its finest !!!!!!
Perfect description of Western society.
Anybody who can scam the scammers is OK.
She was scamming business people - get your facts right TROLl
Its interesting to watch those who identify with the victims and those who relate to anna. She's an extremely intriguing character either way you look at it.
Rachel is a hard person to sympathize for, a moocher quick to play up her victimhood.
I wish "the worst thing that happened to me" was so beneficial. My favorite part of the series was when she got cross-examined her.
She would have made a great spy. You just can't teach that stuff. She's a natural.
I'm sorry but Rachel has to be one of the biggest hypocrites out there. Pretty sure she wouldn't have given Anna the time of day had she introduced herself as a Russian/German immigrant with no funds trying to make it in New York's art scene. I don't condone taking advantage of people but this girl could have simply not associated with Anna. I mean, no one forced her. Also, why did she partake in those expensive dinners all the time and why did she agree to go on that ridiculously expensive trip if she knew she did not have the funds to pay for her own expenses at least? I would personally not feel comfortable having someone pay for all that, no matter what story they are trying to sell you.
Lol I can't take Rachel seriously
If she got compensated by Netflix, then she was awarded for being a scam artist.
at screen 7.50 where she mentions $62,000 dollars all charged to her card, my heart sank ugh. But I'm glad they weren't stranded and was able to make it back home. It's great that she had credit card limit that high considering she only made $60,000 annual salary. Most CC companies these days wouldn't even hand out a CC for even $10,000 limit even if you have no debt and made over $150,000 a year.
AMEX has emergency services when you’re stuck in certain countries with high credit card bills. They temporarily approved it.
It was a company credit card, she worked for Vanity Fair.
It was her Vanity Fair Credit Card. Wasnt actually hers.
@@ruthallen7055 exactly, the company card was what covered it
She made over 600k from this and the credit card company gave back the money. She's a damn lucky victim.
They need to deport her, now. Ban her for at least 10 years from entering America. How can they allow her to continue to stay her, it's disrespectful as hell.
She was deported. She's in Germany right now.
Imagine if she was mexican
@@jukio02 ua-cam.com/video/mhJCYXYpBNE/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ABCNews
@@v.m.m101 exactly!
If she was black or Mexican it would’ve been worse . She only got away with it bc she’s white!!
Taking rich parasites money? Massive W in my book.
She is proud of her for having this celebrity "status" even in prison, instead of being ashamed she is proud and happy about it!
She’s extremely intelligent and managed to do what she set up to do. What for gods sake she should be ashamed of? She didnt commit any violet crimes she just stole money from some rich fucks who inherited it and who obviously didnt have her skillset or she wouldnt fool them. This is evolution at it’s best. Honestly good for her.
And here we are two years later and she made it to Dancing With The Stars, getting booted off the first elimination round, taking away "nothing" from the show/experience...
Inventing anna is a fantastic mini series about anna on Netflix. Must watch
ua-cam.com/video/kC8QdXELIB8/v-deo.html
It's TRASH just like her. She's the same person as hush puppi but y'all give white people a pass for the same of worst crimes
You mean on Netflix?
@@gbecks3672 - yes, like I said, Netflix.
I fixed it, thank you
@@KBTadieh - whay whay whay white privilege whay whay whay.
Not every what person has white privilege, it's more for the rich white kids, but you would never understand, you're way to busy blaming all white people
It's amazing how many people profited from her fame, I think they owe her credit for that cause all I see that story actually has a good end and we also discovered that Anna is not only a con-artist but also an artist. I hope that society accepts her beside of what she has done cause I don't think that a nobody finding a way to fit in is as serious as murdering someone. Actually it is a masterpiece of courtesy, no matter how it hurts the balls of loan advisers, I think she deserved a place in U.S. as an example of David in the world of Goliaths of high society fit-into bravery and so rich kids in U.S. can learn what it's like to be a real self-made 🌟
Honestly what this woman did is the exact same thing people do on these platforms. Aka. UA-camrs, Instagram, etc., They fabricate their lives until those fabrications become facts. So in honesty that's on the people who took her at face value. Just because you see money on her, in clothes, shopping etc., Doesn't mean it's real. Don't believe everything you see and hear, I mean you would think these rich folk's would know this. 🤷🏾♀️
Good for her, 👍🏻 well done, she basically live like the people who rip-off the rest of us
sorry..i could never live like that...lying and stealing from others....wondering every day if it was the last.🤨
Coz u are normal and not a sociopath
She's someone whom I wouldn't like in real life; but I admire her guts and ability.
When you can pull off what she did in New York's -above the law- narcissist high society you're a genius among many criminals. ... Chick fit right in.
She is a true sociopath... Very evident after the interviews I have seen with her...EVERYONE SHOULD RUN if you see this woman!
