Anna Delvey's house arrest birthday party had guests sign over social security numbers on entry

Controversial socialite Anna Delvey has celebrated her 32nd birthday in style, with the afterparty requiring guests to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDA) which required them to divulge their social security numbers to the glamourous convicted scam artist.

The Netflix true crime story told the true tale of a woman who convinced New York's social elite that she was one of them, managing in turn to con them for their riches.

So you could understand why sharing sensitive financial information like a social security number with Delvey might have given New York's elite a bit of pause.

For the record, a social security number is assigned at birth and allows agencies to track business records and an individual's financial information.

So it's a powerful number to have.

Page Six claimed that those who attended Sorokin's soiree left that space blank or supplied fake numbers.

While a rep for Delvey confirmed to Page Six that the NDA release form was presented to guests upon arrival.

However,some also received them via email ahead of time.

One guest told Page Six: "The night was seriously somehow magical and full of synchronicities, things kept happening twice, or maybe it just felt like that because the party was so intimate but like a really good night."

Another said: "People were waiting outside on the street to get in. There was full door security and a clipboard person. The gimmick of going to Anna’s house is exciting right now."

Sorokin rose to infamy first in the headlines and then with the Netflix show about her wild scams and the trail of destruction left in her wake.

When Sorokin initially arrived in NY, she told people she had a €60 million (£44.3m) trust fund overseas, while convincing them to pay large amounts of money for trips they had taken together.

In 2019 she was convicted of multiple counts of attempted grand larceny, theft of services and larceny in the second degree.

She was released from prison in February last year – although was later taken back into custody after overstaying her visa and is currently incarcerated in New York's Orange County Jail.

Records reviewed by the outlet show she used $199,000 (£147,000) of the money to pay restitution to the banks, along with another $24,000 (£18,000) to settle state fines.

She was released in February 2021 for good behavior.
