A woman's life turned upside-down when she sent a bunch of money to one of the stars from"Stranger Things" ... and even divorced her husband because the"actor" told her to.
He also told her he couldn't access any of his bank accounts, saying they were all controlled by Liv ... which led to her sending the $10k of gift cards, crypto, and cash through payment apps over time. For those unaware, this type of thing is often referred to as a"romance scam" -- finding someone emotionally vulnerable and gaining their trust, getting them to send money through unconventional ways like gift cards, often to hide a paper trail.
