In 2015, two aspiring script writers flew to Indonesia to meet with executives of a large Chinese film corporation. It was a trap: the Hollywood Con Queen not only coned them out of tens of thousands of dollars, she also cruelly ruined their friendship. Two years later, a corporate investigator working for a big shot Hollywood producer, made a discovery that put her on the trail of this master of deciet.

In 2018, journalist Scott Johnson received a tip that someone was impersonating high-powered women in Hollywood. Using their identities, the scammer lured artists from across the entertainment industry to Indonesia on the promise of work. People thought it was their big break. Instead, hundreds of victims found themselves in increasingly strange scenarios with a shadowy figure known as the Hollywood Con Queen. It sounds like a textbook con: steal someone's identity, create a fake story and exploit people for cash. But as Scott reveals in this week's episode of Crime Story, the scammer wasn't motivated by money. It was about something much deeper.For ad-free listening to Crime Story, subscribe to CBC's True Crime channel on Apple Podcasts. Feedback for us?

Between 2013 and 2020, hundreds of people who worked in the entertainment industry—from actors and writers to photographers, makeup artists, and security personnel—were targeted by brilliant and bizarre scammer who came to be known as the Con Queen of Hollywood. The Con Queen impersonated famous female studio executives and convinced many of her marks to spend huge sums of money—often on trips to Indonesia—under the pretext of doing research for film projects that would be their big break. Journalist Scott Johnson covered the case for The Hollywood Reporter, eventually reporting that the Con Queen was actually a man named Hargobind “Harvey” Tahilramani, a genius impersonator who was also trying to make it as an Instagram food influencer. Scott's book about the case, The Con Queen of Hollywood: The Hunt for an Evil Genius, was published last year and a three-part documentary series based on his book premiered on Apple TV this past May. Scott joined me for a conversation about his years reporting the case and how he finally tracked Hargobind down in England in the early months of the Covid pandemic. He also talks about how reporting from wars and being the son of a CIA officer informed his reporting. GUEST BIO Scott C. Johnson is the author of two highly acclaimed books. The Wolf and the Watchman (W.W. Norton, 2013) was long-listed for the National Book Award, the PEN USA award and was named a Washington Post Notable Book. His second book, The Hollywood Con Queen (Harper, 2023) was given a starred review by Publisher's Weekly and selected as an Amazon editor's pick. Scott was a consulting producer of Hollywood Con Queen, a 3-part documentary series to air on Apple TV+ in the spring of 2024. He now lives in France with his wife and two children.

The incredible true story of the Hollywood Con Queen scam, and the hunt for the sick mastermind behind it. With Josh Dean and Vanessa Grigoriadis. A production of Campside Media.
The scam has a whole other set of victims — the female producers and studio execs who had their names and reputations damaged by the Con Queen. Josh goes to visit Deb Snyder, one of the biggest film producers in Hollywood, and finds that she has some very interesting things to share about our scammer.
With no sign of the case being resolved, and the Con Queen very much still racking up victims, the team decides to go hunting for this elusive scammer.
Just when you thought the Con Queen scam couldn't get any more mind-boggling, a new twist emerges — one that makes the depravity of this scammer abundantly clear.
At long last, the team penetrates the scammer's inner circle — and zeroes in on the Con Queen's identity.
Friends, classmates, even prison officials help us assemble a story of the Con Queen suspect that goes all the way back to his childhood.

Over the past seven years, hundreds of Hollywood gig workers have been fooled into flying to Indonesia for a movie that doesn't exist.

At long last, the team penetrates the scammer's inner circle — and zeroes in on the Con Queen's identity.
Episode XXXIV is complete, unlike the USA Presidential Election. We go inside the US Constitution (the document, not the spaceship) to show why it doesn't matter what the news media says, the new President will be inaugurated in January in a seamless manner no matter who it is. So STFU and stop making sense! In Australia, the US and UK, they have said 70% of people need to be vaccinated with the 'upcoming safe' WuFlu vaccine. Do the math. Plus it takes TWO injections. And it has to be kept at -70 below zero. HA! Who'll be the first? I'm not a nutcase anti-vaxxer but I'm not on a suicide mission either. Remember Kimosabe, you never want to be the first. Custer learned that. The most astonishing whodunnit in Hollywood isn't a movie, its a crime ring of women impersonating movie producers scamming ZILLIONS of dollars from unsuspecting people. I go deep under cover to tell you the tale and where it is at the moment.

Just when you thought the Con Queen scam couldn't get any more mind-boggling, a new twist emerges — one that makes the depravity of this scammer abundantly clear.
The scam has a whole other set of victims — the female producers and studio execs who had their names and reputations damaged by the Con Queen. Josh goes to visit Deb Snyder, one of the biggest film producers in Hollywood, and finds that she has some very interesting things to share about our scammer.
For the past 6 years, someone — or some group — has been terrorizing a certain class of Hollywood workers. Strivers — day players and physical trainers and make-up artists and security guards — receive a phone call or email offering the job of a lifetime. A key role on a major film, or TV show. This offer comes from a powerful woman — one of the biggest producers or studio executives in the industry. All these strivers have to do is get on a plane, for Jakarta, immediately. But when they land, there is no producer. There is no movie. It’s all a fraud. This is the incredible true story of one the longest and strangest cons in history. Tag along as two long-time journalists untangle the story of the Hollywood Con Queen scam, and embark upon an obsessive quest to figure out who’s behind it. Learn more about your ad choices.

For the past three years, a master con artist has lured a long and growing list of entertainment industry professionals to Indonesia and scammed them out of tens of thousands of dollars by posing as powerful female Hollywood producers pretending to be setting up big-budget film projects. From extracting money to holding blackmail material to even baiting a male victim into phone sex, there seemed no limit to what this person was willing - and able - to do. It’s a story that involves a brilliant sociopath, powerful producers who have had their identities stolen, and a dogged female private investigator who’s chased their online shadow for years (often from her NJ home after her kids are in bed). In this series, two journalists and hosts, Josh Dean and Vanessa Grigoriadis go deep into the most devious and outrageous scam in Hollywood history—one that’s fooled trainers, make-up artists, and security guards, and also dragged in some of the most powerful women in entertainment. The story is a bit of the man hunt—listeners are following along, participating in hunting this guy and hopefully at the end find of the show, an arrest has been made and listeners find out who it is.

Celebrity photographer Joe Scarnici spent thousands of dollars trying to complete an assignment in Indonesia for someone posing as billionaire Christina Ong. Another photographer, Carley Rudd, had a similar experience with a person claiming to be Wendi Deng. Comparing notes, they realize they are caught up in a scam that has been weaving its way through Hollywood freelancers. Investigators pick up the case, trying to decipher who is behind the scam and why they're doing it.
Joe Scarnici works around the globe as a celebrity photographer, so when he gets a call from a man who proclaims himself the assistant of billionaire Christina Ong, he's intrigued but not shocked. The assistant says Joe was recommended to Ong by one of his past clients, Martha Stewart. After speaking about the project, a photo shoot of Olympic athletes in Southeast Asia, Joe decides to sign on. A contract is signed and he flies to Indonesia, where he becomes entangled in a complex scheme that has plagued the entertainment industry for years.
Simpática anécdota personal durante el concierto del grupo Queen en Caracas, en el año de 1981.

Private investigations have unfolded over the past several years, and just recently, the FBI announced that they were looking into this scheme, which has ensnared hundreds of victims...
