35 Tinder Swindler Quotes

The Tinder Swindler is a British true crime documentary film directed by Felicity Morris and released on Netflix on 2 February 2022. The documentary tells the story of the Israeli conman Simon Leviev (born Shimon Hayut) who used the dating application Tinder to connect with individuals who he then emotionally manipulated into financially supporting his lavish lifestyle on the pretext he needed the money to escape his “enemies.” The Netflix documentary teaches us to be mindful of potential lovers we find on the internet. Not everyone pursues your heart, rather, they hold an ulterior motive of running off with your earthly riches. May these Tinder Swindler Quotes inspire you to be cautious so that you may live your dreams and not get swindled.
