Hollywood hustler Adva Lavie, 28, allegedly has at least two more male victims who are too embarrassed to come forward as she targeted “men who had something to lose,” sources tell The Post.
Before she was arrested and charged with six felonies for crimes including allegedly romance scamming older men and stealing from them, Lavie — known professionally as Mia Ventura — was already infamous in Hollywood, with people urging to look out for her.
“She found men who had something to lose. I have two guys that I know who will not come forward,” entrepreneur Michael Sartain — who featured Lavie on his “Access Vegas” podcast — claimed to The Post.
“She’ll find a man who is on a Sugar Baby website. She’s looking for the ones who have a lot of money, cheating on their wife. You can’t call the cops when you hired [someone from that kind of site] to come to your house.
“She would find people who had prestigious jobs, people in marriages – she’d hustle them and they couldn’t or wouldn’t go to the cops.”
Since her arrest in 2025, Lavie has been released on an ankle monitor, during which time she has become engaged to billionaire Stephen Cloobeck, 64, with the couple planning to wed June 18 in Israel.
It was after filming Sartain’s podcast that former Penthouse magazine cover star Lavie is alleged by police to have rifled through several people’s bags and stolen credit cards. He claims her behavior “seems like kleptomania,” to him.
One of her alleged victims in that incident, and one of the crimes she is now charged with, was with hairstylist Eden Lynn Strelioff, 31.
She told The Post how the brazen porn star stole her card and charged $900 in hair extensions, booking herself into a posh Beverly Hills salon under her real name.
During podcast filming, “she went into the other room. She took multiple people’s cards, cash just rummaged through our belongings,” Strelioff alleged.
“I found out pretty quick. I got home from the podcast and noticed things were missing [from my wallet].
“Over the next couple of weeks, there was a charge on my Platinum Amex for a saloon in Beverly Hills for $900.
“She was getting extensions,” Strelioff recalled, saying she alerted police to the matter. They later told her Lavie was apparently involved in a “string of robberies.”
“She’s done this to many people she’s come into contact with,” Strelioff said.
Lavie, faces more than 11 years in prison after being charged with six felonies: Two counts of grand theft, two counts of burglary and two counts of unauthorized use of personal identifying information. She pleaded not guilty to all charges at court in Los Angeles this week.
Lawyers for Lavie did not respond to The Post’s request for comment.
“The story is twisted. Her story has not been told. She has been abused,” Cloobeck previously said, defending her.
However, the source said former Israel Defense Forces soldier turned Playboy star and OnlyFans model Lavie had been problematic across Hollywood and beyond.
“She came to a bunch of charity events, like Babes in Toyland [in Las Vegas]. She was always on the scene. She would compete in all of these swimsuit pageants,” said Sartain, noting that people had later told him to keep away from her. “I heard that she was evil,” he added.
Still, he thinks with the high-profile legal team Lavie debuted in court Monday, heavily rumored to be funded by Cloobeck, she will skate on most of the charges.
“She can claim these were gifts. How far are these men willing to go to implicate themselves on the record for hiring [her]. How willing are they to go on the record?
“She’ll plead to a Class A misdemeanor and time served because she has a mega lawyer.”
On Monday, the judge explained the rules of Lavie’s bail, which include not being able to leave California without permission and stripping away her passport, putting her wedding in jeopardy.
