The scammer was found to have used artificial intelligence (AI) photos and videos to deceive women.
Anne, 53, a French interior designer, received an Instagram message in February 2023 from a person claiming to be Brad Pitt's mother, according to the Daily Mail and other foreign media. The very next day, I got a message from an account that writes a profile that introduces me as Brad Pitt saying "'Mom has already told me a lot about you.'"
She was looking forward to starting a romance with a famous actor.
Over the next year, the two online 'Dating' began.
The person who claimed to be Brad Pitt texted almost every day and sent romantic poems, photos and videos.
Photos and videos were actually made with AI.
Anne, who was struggling with her marriage, fell in love with her daily attention and encouragement.
Eventually choosing to divorce, she received 775,000 euros (about 1.16 billion won) as alimony and informed Brad Pitt 'fake'.
Since then, Brad Pitt has demanded money from Anne, saying she needs hospital treatment for various diseases such as kidney cancer.
She also questioned a famous actor's request to send money to a Turkiye account.
He then made excuses that "I can't withdraw cash because of my ongoing divorce from Angelina Jolie."
He also said, `There's no reason to live without you" was frequently said, and 830,000 euros (about 1.2 billion won) was transferred over several months from Anne.
When her daughter warned her that "It could be a scam", Anne said "You will find out when he comes in person and you will say sorry then"
Then it wasn't until Anne saw a photo of Brad Pitt 'really' with his current girlfriend, Ines de Ramon, that she realized she had been scammed.
Shocked, Anne tried extreme choices three times for depression and was hospitalized.
Now she has filed a complaint against a fraudster who doesn't even know her face.
