This source details a federal investigation into Aurora Phelps, a prolific predator accused of orchestrating a lethal international romance scam targeting elderly men. Operating across Las Vegas and Mexico, Phelps allegedly lured victims through dating apps, drugged them with dangerous sedatives, and systematically liquidated their assets. The FBI has identified at least 11 victims, some of whom were kidnapped or killed, including John Wiens and Robert "Beau" Erbach. Phelps utilized various aliases and influencer personas to hide her crimes while making extravagant purchases with stolen funds. Currently, she is serving a lengthy sentence in Mexico and faces further federal charges in the United States upon her extradition. Authorities are now appealing to the public to help identify additional victims potentially harmed by her predatory schemes.
