George Paul Janssen, a four-time World Series of Poker Circuit winner, was found in December 2023 with injuries after claiming he was kidnapped by a Mexican cartel. However, suspicions arose when it was discovered he might have fabricated the incident as part of a scheme to defraud banks out of $3.2 million using fake documents. Janssen, who had previously lost his car-selling license due to document falsification, has now been arrested on fraud charges. His story has gained international attention, casting doubt on the reality of his kidnapping account.
There's been a lot of collateral damage due to what George has done. I have a family, I have a career. I don't need his problems, too. This was a shock to everyone.
This was not the first time they found Janssen falsifying business documents. The Michigan Department of State discovered discrepancies in his sales and inventory.
