In one of the most outrageous and sophisticated scams in modern
European history, Franco-Israeli con artist Gilbert Chikli posed
as high-ranking government officials — including France’s Defence
Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian to convince CEOs, religious leaders,
and billionaires to wire him millions. Using realistic silicone
masks, Skype calls, and elaborate fake offices, Chikli
orchestrated a fraud that netted over €100 million between 2006
and 2019.

This is the true story of how power, persuasion, and pure nerve
turned one man into the architect of a global con and how it all
came crashing down.
