The whole world watched as master con artist Simon Leviev fell through the cracks in the Netflix documentary The Tinder Swindler. Earlier, the promising Silicon Valley talent, Elizabeth Holmes, who dressed as ‘the next Steve Jobs’ was exposed as one of the biggest fraudsters ever. Telegraaf reporters Kitty Herweijer and Elif Isitman are quite fascinated by these kinds of figures. In the podcast ‘Unfiltered with Kitty and Elif’ they discuss with psychiatrist Esther van Fenema what kind of people are hidden behind the deception and why we are inclined to put them on the shield.
