When Williams finally reported her to the New York County District Attorney’s Office, they returned her call straight away, saying that Sorokin was already under investigation.

She jumped around from staying at different luxury hotels and promised there was just a glitch with her bank account. At the end of her Moroccan holiday (opens in new tab) with Rachel Deloache Williams-staying at the eye-wateringly expensive $7,000-a-night La Mamounia-Williams was forced to pick up the total bill for their stay, with Sorokin promising her: “I’ll wire you $70,000, that way everything’s covered.”īack in New York, Williams hounded her for her money back, but Sorokin always had an excuse for why she couldn’t give it to her. As she had previously lavished her friends with gifts and money-she was famed for handing out $100 bill tips, according to The Cut (opens in new tab)-they figured she was good for it, so they offered to lend her the money on the condition she would pay it straight back. When she went for dinners at expensive restaurants or whisked friends off on luxury holidays, she would then pull the old whoops-I’ve-forgotten-my-purse stunt.

Two years later, she moved to New York, and claiming to have a trust fund of €60 million, attempted to set up ADF, the Anna Delvey Foundation, a members club that would contain a gallery, studios, a hotel, a bar and event spaces. However, instead, she ended up working as an intern at Purple magazine in Paris, which is where she first created the pseudonym and alter-ego, Anna Delvey. Sorokin was born to a working-class family in a town near Moscow, and moved to London as a 20-year-old, with the aim of attending Central St. A post shared by Anna Delvey2.0 (opens in new tab)Ī photo posted by on Anna Sorokin sentence and scam:
