+1 and culpability.

I would never believe anyone who told me they were black ops, and quite frankly, if you're walking out of an apartment with a baggie of diamonds, But I believed nothing Sarma was saying this guy told her.

Meaning you think she’s lying about what he told her? What about the texts and recordings?

Maybe I worded that poorly. Change "I believed nothing Sarma was saying this guy told her" to I believe none of the info this guy told Sarma." Even though she said his dad drove them from NH to NY (which is like a six hour drive) and she said his dad backed up everything, my gut reaction was "So the guy got his dad to believe this crap too?!"

I don't think the guy's father believed his son's lies but rather backed him up to support the con. The father was also a lowlife.

Yes, but at the time I posted the above, I had only seen the first episode and didn't know about the father. I've now watched all four. You know what sticks out to me? How transparent my husband is with me, and how much he empowers me to make myself be and feel safe. He doesn't tell me that I'm safe because he'll keep me safe from vague bad guys. When he borrowed money from "us" to start his business, he wrote out an IOU and signed it, and then gave me monthly updates on how the business was doing. If tomorrow I asked to see the books, he'd pull up his accounting software, log in, and let me poke around. He's just so transparent and trustworthy. I can't imagine marrying someone so shady.

This would have been a more interesting and credible series if Sarma had actually revealed anything about her state of mind.

I feel like she is a lot more culpable in all of this than she wanted the world to believe. She started filming before going to prison. I feel like it was terrible what she did to the investors, but the one hurting the most is her mother and her employees. Her mother probably gave Anthony all of her retirement.

I found this to be more believable than the Tinder Swindler. I spent that whole show just marveling that anyone could be so stupid.

I'd like to know, from him I guess, why that guy blew up like a blimp! What's up with that?

+1 that dimension of the story was mostly left out. Also, from the phone conversations/descriptions of what he was saying in the first two episodes, I thought at first that he was schizophrenic. But honestly, how could she fall for his BS over and over again. And her mom giving him $400k on top of the $1.6 she gave him? WTF.

I bailed in the middle of episode 2. She's made to look like the victim when she really was not.

Did they include the time she filed for bankruptcy or how she slept with her married lawyer?

I knew there was more to her bullshit. She plays all innocent and naive but she isn’t.

I hated this documentary and I watch a ton of them. Depressing to witness a woman with so much potential being ruined by an immoral gambling addict. I stopped watching before it was over and I never do that. Yuck!

Did anyone else find it boring?

Lol no. I watch these shows and think how stupid the “victims” are. Also I do not think Sarma is the victim here. Her court defense was she was manipulator by the guy. Right! She was totally in on it. Really 4 months sentence for selling what a few million?

She’s no victim.
