A TikTok user who identifies as Laurenn Lillz said this week she was the last woman romantically involved with Daejon Labrayae Love before federal agents arrested him at Boise Airport, a claim that arrived days after prosecutors accused Love of posing as a San Francisco 49ers player and helping defraud at least 26 women of about $1.3 million.
In the video, Lillz said she was Love’s “last victim” through Aug. 24, the same day the FBI and other agencies arrested Love, 35, and alleged accomplice Taylor Jamie Chan, 18, at the airport in Boise. She displayed photos and clips she said documented their relationship, including fishing trips, travel, shopping, a Corvette and a diamond ring she appeared to suggest Love obtained for her. She also showed text messages with a contact saved as “Jordan,” an alias prosecutors say Love used, discussing a future together. In one exchange, she said he teased a gift before a ring appeared. The video closed with her saying she would “speak my truth.”
Lillz did not say in the video how much money, if any, she lost. That omission matters. Federal prosecutors allege Love mixed romance with fictitious investments, but a relationship or gifts alone would not automatically place someone among the 26 identified financial victims. The U.S. attorney’s office in Oregon has not publicly named individual victims.
Financial records cited by prosecutors show Love and Chan received about $1.3 million from the 26 women identified so far in California, Oregon, Washington and Idaho. The FBI says it believes there are more victims. Love also used the names Jon Love, Avril Lyto Love and Jordan Love, according to the Justice Department. Investigators said Love traveled from July 15 through Aug. 24 through New Mexico, California, Oregon, Nevada, Utah and Idaho, and that he was in Idaho to meet new victims when Chan flew from California to join him. Both men were taken into custody at the airport. A complaint is an accusation. Both defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
The NFL and the 49ers told investigators Love had never been employed by the team or the league, according to reporting on the affidavit. Love’s now-removed Instagram account portrayed him as an undrafted wide receiver who made the roster, posted team gear and luxury cars, and at one point dismissed online information about him by saying, “That’s Google, not me.”
The texts Lillz displayed — a contact named Jordan, talk of “building for the future,” a teased gift and a ring — also echo language in the Justice Department release: Love “had romantic relationships with many of the victims and told them he wanted to build wealth and a future together.” A diamond ring and shared travel would fit the alleged pattern of making the relationship feel real before money entered the conversation. They do not, by themselves, prove a completed fraud in her case.
Other women have begun posting their own encounters. One circulating clip described an $11,000 transfer before the arrest news broke. Those accounts, like Lillz’s, remain unverified social media statements unless they appear in charging documents.
@laurenn.llizz You didn’t deserve me
Romance-investment schemes typically work in stages: a fast emotional connection, proof of wealth, a trusted “adviser,” pressure to act quickly and isolation once the money is gone. Prosecutors say this case added NFL branding, team merchandise, luxury cars and fake bank screens. Chan was 14 when the alleged scheme began in 2022 and 18 at arrest, a detail that has drawn separate public attention but is not a defense to the charges as written.
