Based on a true story, the Paramount+ series *Fake* is a gripping psychological thriller about the dangers of finding love online. The drama follows Birdie (Asher Keddie), a successful writer who believes she has finally met the perfect man, Joe (David Wenham). Their whirlwind romance, however, is a carefully constructed lie. Birdie’s world shatters when she discovers Joe is a sophisticated con artist who has methodically stolen her money, her heart, and her sense of reality. The series chronicles her difficult journey to reclaim her life and seek justice against the man who deceived her so completely. This compelling Australian thriller has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns. It’s a chilling exploration of trust and betrayal.
