Someone’s wallet is hurting…
Kevin Hart’s personal shopper Dylan Jason Syer has allegedly stolen more than $1 million from the actor by using his credit card for unauthorized purchases. The 29-year-old was arraigned on Wednesday in Queens Supreme Court, revealed Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz.
Through his personal shopping business, Sire Consulting, LLC., Syer first began working with the comedian in 2015. It was then that he was given Hart’s credit card information “with the understanding that he would only make authorized purchases.” But of course, he allegedly didn’t abide by that.

“With Mr. Hart’s stolen money in the defendant’s bank account and at his disposal, the defendant then purchased thousands of dollars of fine art and other collectibles, and at least 5 Patek Phillipe watches valued at more than $400,000. Among these art and collectible purchases was a Sam Friedman painting, at least 16 Bearbrick collectible dolls, 5 KAWS collectible dolls, and two Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandouliere bags.”
