概要
He fell in love with a persona built from glass-and-steel renderings and a floor plan taped above a sink, and by the time he realized the man never existed he had wired $2,340 to strangers. The smell of burned coffee, an open window, and four words in red marker - THIS IS NOT HIM - point to a deception that unfolded entirely in text; who designed the image that convinced him, and why did it take a printed rendering for the truth to arrive?
In this episode, you will hear how a twenty-six-year-old man living in a house he inherited slowly became involved with an online profile presented as a forty-one-year-old architect, how the relationship moved from architecture talk to financial favors, and how a refunded payment and a taped printout led to a final, revealing moment. What did those four words mean to the people who found them?
