This book is an investigative record of the fake socialite Anna incident that shocked the Western world. 25-Year-old Anna claims to be a wealthy German girl with a trust fund of 60 million euros. She came to New York to create an art foundation worth 40 million US dollars. She wears famous brands, stays in five-star hotels, eats at Michelin-starred restaurants, takes private charter flights, and socializes among politicians, businessmen and celebrities. However, despite her glamorous appearance, she was penniless. Rachel was Anna's best friend and victim. As an editor at Vanity Fair, she met Anna and became friends. In the process of witnessing Anna's socialite style, Rachel had to pay Anna's bills and incurred huge debts... In this true story, we will see the daily life, values, deceitful tactics of the fake socialite, and the personality that made her "unobstructed" along the way. We will find that fake socialites and swindlers have the same thing in common, that is, they take advantage of human nature's imagination for beautiful things and awe of power. How does Anna use money worship and social circles to create the myth of a famous lady? How do you get into the upper class and almost realize your so-called dream? Through the Anna incident, this book sees the social landscape of today's United States, uncovers the charming surface of Manhattan's upper class, and glimpses the hidden truth of human nature and the world of capital.
