If it’s going to pick at the scars of traumas so bluntly, it needs to be for a damn good reason. Love Fraud has some damn good reasons, and some damn bad ones, too. It’s the most watchable series I’ve ever watched that I’m not sure I can recommend watching.

Love Fraud plays like the real-life equivalent of a Lifetime movie turned, for better and worse, into a salacious Showtime docuseries. Although there are plenty of juicy bits in this tale of a guy who wooed and fleeced women he met online, the filmmakers focus on the micro of the story at the expense of the bigger picture -- in a way that's entertaining, but shallow.

"Love Fraud" doesn't come across as expressly an advocacy project or as even all that justice driven. At best it's an odd confluence of true crime, documentary tropes, and visual artistry. The familiarity of this situation that makes "Love Fraud" watchable if not indispensable; it's basically an event series version of a "Dateline" mystery that crashes in to a "Cheaters" episode around hour three.
