The Not-So-Tinder Swindler – The Crimes of Con Man and Love Fraud Criminal Richard Scott Smith
In the “Heart of America,” Kansas City, a single mother named Tracy was just looking for love.
While she hoped to find a nice man to spend her life with, instead she found, unbeknownst to her at the time, a con man with a long history of meeting women and stealing every penny to their name.
Tired of the dating scene and excited by the prospect of love, Tracy was falling for his charm, but Richard Scott Smith was really lying to her about a medical malpractice lawsuit that he said would soon grant him millions of dollars and biding his time before bleeding her dry.
“How come this God-loving, Applebee’s-eating, Lifetime-movie watching man can’t get the cash that is rightfully his? But no. It’s because he was full of the shit.” – Gretchen (13:37)
