The famed scammer-socialite, who deceived banks and New York City notables to the tune of almost $67 million, has been released from prison.

Anna “Delvey” Sorokin, the con artist who defrauded Manhattan’s elite by posing as a German heiress, claims she received “exactly what I desired” following her release from prison.

In her first interview since her release, she told the New York Times that she is “very glad” to be free, but that nothing is certain.

To fuel her jet-setting lifestyle, the notorious con artist and socialite scammed banks and New York City notables to the tune of over $67 million (£51.5 million).

The crime spree resulted in a four-to-twelve-year sentence and was the subject of the hit Netflix series Inventing Anna.

She was released from state prison in February 2021 but was immediately re-incarcerated by Immigrant and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

On Friday, Sorokin, age 31, was granted a $10,000 bond and freed from jail.

She is under home arrest and cannot access social media.

Sorokin told the New York Times that she is “very content.”

She told the newspaper, “They had previously denied bail.” It was an exercise in tenacity.

So many immigration attorneys informed me that I would be deported to Mars before I could leave New York.

Sorokin, who was born in the then-Soviet Union, anticipates that her immigration case will keep her in New York City for some time.

“I’m extremely, extremely pleased with that. That is precisely what I desired. I only hope for more independence in the future.”

Sorokin currently resides in an apartment with one bedroom in the East Village neighborhood of the city.

When asked if the rent money and the $10,000 deposit belonged to her, she responded, “Yes.”
