Netflix’s ‘Love Con Revenge’ Debuts With Survivor-Led Hunt for Romance Scammers

The series pairs Cecilie Fjellhøy with a private investigator to pursue cases that police have often sidelined.

Overview

  • The six-episode docuseries is streaming now on Netflix, following Fjellhøy and private investigator Brianne Joseph as they assemble case files for victims to present to law enforcement.
  • A critical review in The Guardian praises the mission but describes the execution as anticlimactic, repetitive, and occasionally stilted.
  • Early viewer reaction on social media is enthusiastic, with many calling the cases gripping and urging others to watch.
  • Press and interviews highlight active investigative sequences, including stakeouts and car chases, with Fjellhøy crediting Joseph’s fieldwork.
  • Coverage recaps Simon Leviev’s documented criminal history and notes a Leviev family civil lawsuit, with unverified reports suggesting he is in Dubai and no new enforcement developments confirmed.
