Cecilie Fjellhoy's biography

At a glance

  • Romance fraud victim featured in The Tinder Swindler
  • Co-founder of LoveSaid supporting mental health for fraud victims
  • Named in Top 20 Fraud Experts and Top 10 Female Cyber Security Speakers

Cecilie Fjellhoy is a speaker whose personal journey through the world of financial fraud has resonated with audiences globally. In 2025, she takes centre stage in her own Netflix series, “Love Con Revenge”, which follows victims of romance scams as they work to reclaim their lives with help from Cecilie and private investigator Brianne Joseph.


Her story first gained international attention after she bravely shared her experience of being defrauded, covered in VG's most-read article ever and later featured in the Netflix documentary "The Tinder Swindler". Cecilie’s willingness to expose her private life to the public eye has not only brought attention to the pervasive issue of fraud but has also provided solace and awareness to countless others who may find themselves in similar situations.


Originally from Lillestrøm, just outside Oslo, Cecilie found herself thrust into an overwhelming media spotlight. Despite the challenges of navigating this new world, she recognised the importance of her story in helping others identify and avoid scams or destructive relationships. Her experience of being admitted to an emergency psychiatric unit due to the emotional toll of her ordeal further fuelled her passion for advocacy.


With nearly a decade of experience as a usability designer in the IT industry, Cecilie has leveraged her digital identity and banking systems skills to champion the cause of fraud victims, and has been named one of the top fraud experts to follow worldwide by Trustfull. She has actively engaged with media, organisations, and policymakers worldwide to advocate for changes in processes, laws, and regulations that better protect victims. Extending this commitment, she founded the organisation LoveSaid, which provides mental health support and practical resources to those affected by fraud.


Through her talks and presentations around the world, Cecilie shares her experiences with humility and respect, inspiring audiences to understand that life continues beyond victimhood. Her story is a testament to resilience and the power of speaking out against injustice, making her an influential figure in the fight against fraud.

Does PepTalk charge a booking fee?

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.

What happens after I send a brief?

Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.

What does the typical fee range mean?

The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.

Have all the speakers on the website worked with PepTalk before?

Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.

How far in advance should I book a speaker?

Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
