ChatGPT Helped Crack a $5M Estate Fraud Case — This Is Actually Insane

Okay, this story blew my mind. A woman on Reddit just shared how she used ChatGPT to uncover a $5 million inheritance fraud. Her dad died abroad 10 years ago, and suddenly his “girlfriend” shows up with a marriage certificate and claims everything. But it turns out this woman was already legally married to someone else—so her claim might be totally bogus. Here’s the crazy part: the daughter couldn’t afford lawyers (they were quoting her $500/hr 😵), so she dumped ten years worth of legal files into ChatGPT, taught herself probate law, organized 500+ documents, and wrote a 91-page motion outlining the fraud. And now? The court is officially reopening the case next month. This isn’t some AI fairy tale—she double-checked everything to avoid hallucinations. The amount of grit and persistence it takes to do that is unreal. Honestly, it’s stories like this that make me feel like we’re just scratching the surface of what AI can really do for regular people. Not just code and chat—actual justice. #ChatGPT #AI
