A French woman was deceived by a famous American actor Brad Pitt impersonator and swindled 1.2 billion won.
According to the daily Le Figaro report on the 14th (local time), An (53), an interior designer living in French overseas Réunion, was contacted by Brad Pitt's mother's fake account around February 2023, and the next day, he received a message from Brad Pitt's fake account saying, "My mother told me about you."
Then the fake Brad Pitt told An: "I want you. I sent a message of love such as "my love". He was also interested in the work inside, and sent fake photos and copies of fake passports.
An came to believe in the fake Brad Pitt, and eventually fell in love and divorced her husband. He also reported that he received 775,000 euros (about 1.16 billion won) as alimony after divorcing his husband.
As a result, fake Brad Pitt began asking Ahn for money, saying he should receive hospital treatment under various pretexts. Ahn questioned the Hollywood actor's request to send money to his Turkiye account, but he transferred 830,000 euros (about 1.2 billion won) over several months, believing that "I have no reason to live without you."
Then last summer, it wasn't until he saw a picture of "real" Brad Pitt with his current girlfriend, Ines de Ramon, that he realized he had been scammed.
Shocked An tried three extreme choices, and was admitted to a clinic specializing in severe depression. Currently, he has filed a complaint against a fraudster who doesn't even know his face.
Ahn isn't the only one who has been duped by fake Brad Pitt for a large sum of money. In Spain, five people have also been arrested for impersonating Brad Pitt and stealing 325,000 euros (about 480 million won) from two women.
