He called himself a pilot. A businessman. A man of wealth and connections.
But every airport lounge, every luxury hotel, and every first-class boarding gate he stepped through was part of a lie.
Before the world knew him as “Simon Leviev,” Shimon Hayut was building an international web of deception — forging flight credentials, slipping through Europe’s airports, and conning his way into the lives and bank accounts of anyone who trusted him.
In this episode, we follow the real story behind the so-called Fake Pilot: how he moved across the Schengen Zone with ease, how European authorities finally closed in, and how the man who lived a life of luxury never once sat in a cockpit he claimed to command.
