Viral scammer Daejon Love to receive Netflix documentary treatment for ‘Untold’ series
‘Untold: Wide Deceiver’ will go beyond the viral jokes to examine the darker allegations surrounding Love’s fabricated lifestyle. The tale
Netflix is set to feature a documentary series called "Untold: Wide Deceiver," which delves into the fraudulent scheme of Daejon Love. Love falsely claimed to have played for the San Francisco 49ers and owned businesses like a Gucci store on Fifth Avenue. The documentary will explore the darker allegations surrounding Love's fabricated lifestyle through firsthand accounts from those affected by his scam.
Love's elaborate web of lies, which extended to sports figures across the league, was eventually exposed by a group of women who reported his schemes to law enforcement. Despite his claims of being a professional athlete, Love had never been on an NFL roster. He even flaunted a 49ers helmet in his videos, which only served to heighten the illusion.
The documentary series "Untold" has previously examined other scandalous sports stories, such as the death of Steve McNair and the "Jailblazer" era of the Portland Trail Blazers.
