One of the victims of the infamous “Tinder Swindler” is expecting twins.

Pernilla Sjoholm was one of the victims of the man who claimed to be Simon Leviev on the dating app.
Her life savings was swiped out after she was conned in 2018 by the con artist Shimon Hayut. Several of his victims were featured in the hit Netflix show “The Tinder Swindler.” 

Pernilla hasn’t announced who she’s having the baby with. Instead, she told the news while preparing for an ad for the rival dating app Wingman.

Sjoholm and fellow victim Cecilie Fjellhoy both appear in the commercial, which imagines how their lives would be different if they had used the dating app Wingman instead of Tinder.

Tina Wilson created the dating app.

“I couldn’t help but think if the women had close friends or family vetting their dates for them, they never would’ve [fallen under his spell],” she told Page Six.

Meanwhile, Leviev was sentenced to two years in Finland, where he committed many of his crimes and 15 months in prison in his native Israel. In addition, he is still wanted for alleged fraud in several countries.
