Shimon Hayut, aka Simon Leviev, has said in an interview he is not the now famed “Tinder Swindler,” as showcased in one Netflix documentary.
He claims to have gained wealth from investing in Bitcoin in 2011, back when it was worth under $30.
An Israeli man has now found himself in trouble after being portrayed as “The Tinder Swindler” by a Netflix documentary with the same name. Simon Leviev, whose real name is Shimon Hayut, has now said the creation is nothing but a reputation tarnishing scheme.
In the documentary, Leviev is alleged to have become romantically involved with at least three women he met on Tinder. He wooed them with lavish lifestyles – luxury hotels, private jets, and the likes. Later on, he asked for money to hide his identity from his “enemies.” The women lent him a combined total of over $500,000, after which they never heard from him again.
