The story of the beautiful con artist who cheated on New York

Mexico City.- Yes, most of us dream of a life of luxury: trips, restaurants, hotels and jewelry, but hey, sometimes the situation is not so flattering and you have to work hard to get what you want.

However, there are people who want the top without climbing the complicated mountain, easy money.

A clear example of this is the story of ‘Anna Delvey’, a 27-year-old girl who for a long time led a luxurious life in New York.

He rubbed shoulders with famous artists and financiers to whom he told that his father was a German diplomat and oil businessman.

Such was his intelligence for the ‘illegal’ ‘businesses’ that he always stayed in the best hotels, ate in the best restaurants and frequently organized parties attended by celebrities, senior executives and even athletes, this made no one ever suspect of her.

According to an investigation by New York Magazine, with manipulations, Delvey managed to deceive not only well-known occasions, but also large banks, developers and investors.

In 2016 and being ‘friends’ with such important people, she wanted to open her own club and contemporary art center.

One of his acquaintances, architect Gabriel Calatrava, and his family-owned real estate company helped him find the right space: six stories in a late 19th-century building on Park Avenue.

Anna was assisted by famous financial experts and lawyers, such as Joel Cohen, known for his investigation against Jordan Belfort, known as “The Wolf of Wall Street.”

Her problems began when in February of last year, the ‘millionaire’ rented a room at the New York ’boutique’ hotel 11 Howard, posing as the owner’s best friend.

With these deceptions, he stayed for a month in a suite that costs $ 400 a day. During that time he became very popular with workers for giving generous tips.

However, doubts among the staff became great when it was discovered that he had never provided his credit card number.

He managed to pay off the debt, but when he did not give a card number, he had to leave the hotel. Little by little it became clear that he owed many people money. Two Manhattan hotels whose bills the young woman did not pay accused Delvey of theft of services.

During the investigation it was discovered that Anna Delvey’s real name is Anna Sorókina. He was born in Russia in 1991 and in 2007 his family moved to a small town near Cologne (Germany). Anna’s father worked as a truck driver and later sold air conditioners and heaters.

In the summer of 2017 Sorókina was arrested in Malibu on six counts.
