A three-chapter true-crime narrative examining how Shimon Hayut, posing as a wealthy diamond mogul, used dating apps to manufacture intimacy, stage danger, and extract money from women across countries. Told in a forensic, grit-driven style, the series tracks how luxury became a prop, fear became leverage, and love became the mechanism that moved cash, leaving victims with debt, shame, and long-term damage even after the lie was exposed.
