- In this episode of Fakes, Frauds & Scammers, we meet Max Brandrett a.k.a. ‘Max the Forger’. For 40 years, he specialised in faking the world’s most expensive art and selling it for a fortune. He even sold a piece to notorious East End villains Ronnie and Reggie Kray.
Having endured a spell in prison for his crimes, he’s changed his ways. But that didn’t stop him explaining to us exactly how he created brand new paintings whilst making them look like famous antiques.
In a series of candid interviews, we relive some of the most audacious scams and fraudulent stunts of our time from the mouths of the perpetrators themselves. Whether it’s money, fame or simply an addiction to lying, we find out what motivated these tricksters and whether the highs, lows and ramifications were worth it in the end.
