Netflix's new show follows in the footsteps of The Tinder Swindler, and it even features a familiar face from the hit 2022 documentary.
True crime series Love Con Revenge shines a light on men and women who lent thousands to their partners before discovering they'd been duped.
The six-part show is hosted by Cecilie Fjellhoy, who told her own romance fraud story in The Tinder Swindler.

The Norwegian-born star is now on a mission to help other love scam victims seek justice, with the help of private investigator Brianne Joseph.
But what has kept Cecilie busy since she found fame?
Cecilie's life after The Tinder Swindler fame
After topping Netflix's charts, Cecilie teamed up with fellow scam victim Anna Rowe and set up LoveSaid, a think tank centred on fighting romance fraud.
The duo frequently share social media posts and publish articles raising awareness about love scams and offering support to other victims.
While the label 'victim' may have negative implications, it is not one Cecilie rejects.
The TV star made her thoughts on the label clear back in 2023, telling The Guardian: "Yes, f***, I want to be viewed as a victim. After being told by police: ‘It’s not really a crime.’ If that was the treatment I got, and my case was really high profile, what will they do to others?"
Beyond her collaboration with Anna, the entrepreneur has also found success as a public speaker, often leading talks on fraud detection and prevention.
The Netflix star has spoken at educational conferences everywhere from New York to Dubai, and more recently transformed her story into a novel.
Titled Swindled Never After, Cecilie wrote the book alongside The Tinder Swindler's other alleged victim, Pernilla Sjoholm.
The duo claim this novel is not "just a retelling of The Tinder Swindler" but "a powerful mix of personal storytelling and eye-opening insights."
Cecilie's latest venture in exposing romance fraud is of course her new Netflix series, which spotlights the many shapes that love scams can take.
Speaking before the series premiere, she told Netflix: "Since The Tinder Swindler, I’ve heard from people all over the world who’ve been targeted by criminals hiding behind love.
"Love Con Revenge is a way for me to use what I’ve learned to help others heal, reclaim their voices, their power, and their lives.”
