A fake millionaire once convicted of fraud is said to have done it once more by fooling at least three women he seduced with tempting promises.
Serge Rivard – who previously presented himself as Danny Langevin, Danny Carbonneau, Danny Gauthier, Adam Quintal, Christian Leroux, Enzo Moretti and Jean-François Savoie – was arrested for fraud on December 21, in Montreal, for offenses allegedly committed in April 2022.
The Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu police department confirms that the 58-year-old man would have had at least one victim on his territory. Our Bureau of Investigation has identified two others in the past few days, in the Saint-Hyacinthe and Saint-Eustache regions.
According to our information, Serge Rivard would use the Badoo dating site to communicate with his victims, once more using false names. He would then quickly present himself as a multi-millionaire heir and business owner and promise his victims houses, cars, and travel.
He allegedly pretended not to have access to his funds and bank accounts for a limited period, in order to extract thousands of dollars from these vulnerable women.
Remember that Serge Rivard received strong media coverage in 2016 for stories of love fraud.
Detained, the 50-year-old must return to court this week for his release investigation.
