An Irish actor has told how he was "coerced into performing simulated sex acts" in a fake Skype audition by the "con queen of Hollywood" - who was posing as a female film producer.
Hargobind Tahilramani, 43, is facing extradition to the US accused of being the mastermind of a 1.0 million US dollar (€930,000) scam against more than 300 victims between 2013 and 2020.
He is said to have used fake accents and altered his voice to sound like female film executives to fool industry professionals, including actors, screenwriters and photographers.
