Hollywood's Big Secret documentary

Answer 1

There was a 2024 documentary,"The Queen of Hollywood Scammers," which exposed an outrageous fraud case in American history. The swindler used only a voice changer to swindle 500 people, and the amount involved was as high as 2 million. This case happened in Los Angeles, where many young people who wanted to become stars became victims.

For example, the cameraman Peter received an email inviting him to audition from a self-proclaimed great director, Doug Lehmann. After searching online, he thought it was true. After that, he contacted a staff member named Amy. She was first asked to provide the work and fill in the form. After the initial review, she was notified to report to the production team in Tokyo. After he paid his own travel expenses and arrived, he was informed that his physical condition was not suitable for the role and he needed to go to the gym at his own expense. After paying the fitness fee, he received a remote video audition notice at night before he started working out. The audition content was a humiliating performance such as striptease. After he refused, he was told that the audition failed. If he paid compensation, he could keep the role. He borrowed 2000 dollars from his father. Later, when his father told him about the Hollywood scam, he realized that he had been cheated.

Anna, the private detective, had begun investigating similar cases as early as 2019. John, the reporter, had also participated in the investigation because he had received many fraud complaints. At first, they suspected that it was a gang crime because the fraud process was cumbersome and each victim was deceived in a different way, but the caller was called Amy. It turned out that the criminal was just an Internet celebrity Harvey living in London.
