The notorious Tinder Swindler, Simon Leviev, actual name Shimon Hayut, is renowned for being a serial dater. He’s reportedly dating a British model, age 21, according to claims in the Israeli newspaper Times of Israel.
WHO ARE SHIMON HAYUT AND SIMON LEVIEV?
Any other lady who knows about Leviev would certainly flee for her life if he approached her, so either the model, whose name was not given, does not have Netflix or she has not seen the Tinder Swindler documentary.
Recall that 31-year-old Simon Leviev is an Israeli-born serial con artist whose method of choice was to seduce women he met on Tinder by portraying an extravagant lifestyle complete with pricey hotel stays, private plane rides, and expensive presents.
By persuading them to apply for loans and credit cards so he could max them out, he would gradually ensnare them in a web of debt.
Simon Leviev was reportedly sought in a number of nations, including Israel, Sweden, England, Germany, Denmark, and Norway, according to Esquire magazine.
After using a fraudulent passport in Greece in 2019, he was ultimately apprehended by the authorities. He was then deported to Israel, where he was found guilty of forgery, fraud, and theft.
But the allegations were to offences occurring before 2011. He was eventually given a 15-month jail term, but only spent five months because of “good behaviour.”
It was revealed that the genuine Leviev family had sued him in March of this year. The Tinder Swindler imposter is being sued by the diamond magnates for damages related to his impersonation.
THE NOTORIOUS SWINDLER IS BACK IN LOVE
According to The Times of Israel, Channel 12 in Israel published images of Simon with his new love interest.
“I’m in a new relationship at a really difficult moment in my life. We’ll just have to wait and see,” he allegedly told the network.
When a picture was posted to Hayut’s ostensible Facebook account on Saturday night, internet users began to speculate about the situation.
The message reads, “My Baby girl,” and the picture depicts the Tinder Swindler standing next to a lady on an unidentified beach.
Later, it was revealed that the picture was really shot in 2018 and that the lady in issue is not Leviev’s love partner but rather one of his friends. Leviev did, however, disclose his connection with the model, according to the magazine.
