Summary
Untold: Wide Deceiver will examine how Daejon Love allegedly posed as a San Francisco 49ers wide receiver and swindled 26 women out of more than $1.3 million.
Federal prosecutors say Love, 35, and 18-year-old Taylor Jamie Chan used Tinder, Bumble, Hinge and Facebook Dating to target women in California, Oregon and Washington.
FBI investigators allege Love staged beach workouts, mock contract signings, replica-helmet videos and even an AI-generated Google snippet to sell the fake NFL identity.
Prosecutors say victims were pushed into high-interest personal loans for bogus investment programs, while the money instead funded luxury cars, jewelry and vacations.
Love was arrested with Chan in Boise in August, has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy and wire fraud charges, and is being held without bail before a Dec. 15 trial.
