Still, in the Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, Sorokin released a statement from the Orange Country Correctional Facility located in upstate New York that said:
I’m trying to move away from this like, quote-unquote scammer persona.
The “ultra-platinum” NFTs will allow the holders to meet Sorokin in person while they stand a chance to obtain a package of personal items from her.
In her discussion with NBC News’ Savannah Sellers, the infamous socialite revealed that she minted 10 NFTs with perks like personal phone calls for her fans. Adding further to her statement, she said:
This is, like totally, has been pushed upon me by the prosecution and by the following media and by the Netflix show, but I’m trying to move away from that definitely.
Anna Sorokin has already served around four years in prison after being found guilty of defrauding banks and hotels out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. The scam occurred following her claim to be a German heiress with an inheritance of $60 million.
