Rudy has a natural gift for taste. He put that gift to use in the most lucrative way possible -- he hoodwinked the world of elite wine collections.  Rudy was born in the 1970s in Indonesia where his family has (allegedly) participated in one of the biggest bank heists in world history. (His great-uncle stole hundreds of millions in a fraudulent situation.) 

Now, after serving his time for ripping off rich people, he has been deported to Indonesia, but his crime remains one of the most infamous and entertaining in recent memory.
