In the refined world of high-value art, authenticity is everything. But behind closed doors, reputations are bought, certificates are questionable, and millions change hands in the shadows. Kenneth Wayne, once hailed as a leading expert on Amedeo Modigliani, now stands at the center of an unfolding international scandal that some insiders are calling one of the most elaborate art scams of the 21st century.

Kenneth Wayne is an art expert specifically on Amedeo Modigliani’s paintings. With his Modigliani Project he’s soliciting and requests big amounts of money to fraudsters between $200,000 to $1,000,000 to authenticate false paintings and claiming that those are authentic Amedeo Modigliani’s paintings. The fraud is a multimillion dollar scam to auction houses and private collectors. Kenneth Wayne has been doing this scam for several years and publish the false Amedeo Modigliani’s paintings into his catalogue raisonné with a made up report in order to fool collectors and to cover his tracks. To collect fraudulent money he uses several bank accounts based in the UK under different names of people that he trusts and returns the money to him (company and family members) as forgivable loans in order to avoid paying taxes in the USA.
