Romance Fraud. Kent

Description

Many couples struggle with relationship concerns - but when one partner lies and defrauds the other of their savings, that partner has committed romance fraud. Given the personal, emotional nature of this type of crime, romance fraud tends to be particularly devastating for victims. In this episode of Scammed, we learn about Jeff Kent - a charismatic charmer who preyed upon women by exploiting their loneliness and kindness. Pretending to be someone he was not, with a past that was not his own, he gained a victim's trust - and then included her in business schemes that ultimately left her with immense debts, angry customers, and a broken heart. Here we discover how Kent committed his crimes - and meet the victims he exploited and abused.
