A Connecticut OnlyFans model who pulled in over $3 million from the X-rated site blew the fortune on luxury vehicles and expensive jewelry while evading taxes for four years, federal prosecutors said.
Seathra Zmeena Orr, 39, of Stamford, pleaded guilty Tuesday to tax evasion after federal authorities caught her purposefully skipping payments on her sizeable income, according to prosecutors.
The felony tax evasion charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, according to the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut.
The creator willfully failed to pay any taxes on the whopping sum across the tax years 2019 through 2022, prosecutors said.
The erotic content creator raked in several thousand dollars a year posting explicit photos of herself to the platform, feds said.
Orr even made upwards of $1.3 million in one single year alone, according to federal prosecutors.
The model spent nearly as much as she made, authorities allege. She blew the money on personal expenditures including rent, high-end cars and jewelry, prosecutors said.
Orr spent at least $1.3 million on personal expenditures including rent and luxury vehicle purchases, according to prosecutors.
The OnlyFans star spent an additional $110,000 on expensive jewelry purchases, prosecutors said.

All the while, Orr came up with convoluted schemes to duck paying taxes on her sizeable earnings, according to prosecutors.
Orr allegedly used multiple phony business names in an effort to dodge the Internal Revenue Service, prosecutors said.
The adult content creator allegedly opened several business and personal bank accounts, according to federal prosecutors. She allegedly moved money between those accounts for no legitimate business reasons to evade the agency, feds said.
Investigators eventually caught on to the operation, according to federal officials.
Since federal investigators caught on, the adult star now owes the government agency more than $1.1 million in taxes, prosecutors said.
Orr has agreed to pay at least $476,970 toward the tax debt, feds said. However, a final court order determining the full amount she is expected to pay back has not yet been made, according to prosecutors.
“This prosecution should serve as a warning that no matter how or where you earn your money, you are not absolved from paying taxes on it,” US Attorney David X. Sullivan said.
“Any attempt to intentionally hide earnings and evade the payment of taxes will lead to serious criminal consequences,” Sullivan said.
Orr did not respond to a request for comment.
The defendant was released on a $100,000 bond, authorities said. Her sentencing has not yet been scheduled.
