"Extradition Looms for Notorious American Scammer Posing as Irish Heiress"
Marianne Smyth, accused of running multiple scams by impersonating an Irish heiress, psychic, and witch, is facing extradition to the UK over a 15-year-old scam in Northern Ireland. Victims describe her as a master of disguise who stole over $170,000 from at least five people, using elaborate stories and fake credentials. Smyth's scams included fake charity work, bizarre rituals, and false promises of large inheritances, leaving a trail of victims from California to New York. She remains in a Maine jail awaiting an extradition hearing, with similarities drawn to the case of Anna Sorokin, the convicted New York grifter.
