The Tinder Swindler tells the unbelievable true story of how Simon Leviev pretended to be the son of a diamond billionaire to seduce women and get them to fund his expensive lifestyle.

It’s not fair to blame these victims or simply assume they’re shallow and materialistic when there’s a much bigger cultural problem at play here.
