Self-confessed serial con artist at-large Bobbi Ann Finley is accused of marrying dozens of military men, stealing their savings, and disappearing. Military and law enforcement agencies in at least half a dozen states including California have warrants out for her.

According to the Daily Mail, Finley finds her prey, men due to be deployed overseas, near U.S. military bases. She tells them that she is the daughter of a Marine Corps general who is owed a large inheritance that can only be claimed if she is married, and when she gets her wedding ring she soon allegedly takes off with cash and plastic. News reports indicate that Finley has allegedly carried out the same scheme across the nation, including in Southern California, for nearly two decades.
