The 31-year-old Russian-German citizen was able to deceive the New York elite in 2016 and 2017 into believing he was the daughter of a truck driver from the suburbs of Moscow.

Its story captivated TV producer Shonda Rhymes, who turned it into a mini-series called “Inventing Anna”, starring Julia Corner in the lead role.

According to press reports, Anna received $ 320,000 from the streaming company.
