In the Netflix series "Inventing Anna," Julia Garner, who plays the titular fraudster Anna Delvey, aka Anna Sorokin, delivers a line that perfectly encapsulates how the character thinks of herself: "I work for my success. I earn my accomplishments. Pay attention: Maybe you'll learn how to be smart like me. I doubt it, but you can dream."
The real-life Delvey, who was arrested for defrauding New York socialites and financial institutions out of more than $200,000 after posing as an European heiress and later served nearly four years behind bars, has subsequently found herself under house arrest after overstaying her visa in the U.S.
