Vanity Fair's new series, Hoaxes and Cons, illuminates those who have gone to extreme lengths to infiltrate the upper echelons of society, entertainment, business, become part of their world and in doing so accrue fame, wealth or prestige. In every episode we dive into the story-behind-the-story of an epic hoax or con in the way that only Vanity Fair knows how. Rick Singer, Anna Delvey, JT LeRoy, Anthony Gignac - VF has been chronicling these stories for decades and will now bring the tales to life. What drives them? What’s their endgame? Hoaxes and Cons digs deep on these stories to tell a compelling personal narrative - alongside a structure that takes apart the web of lies piece by piece.
