Former footballer Medi Abalimba, 35, posed as a Premier League player and persuaded his victims, including Thierry Henry's ex-wife and a Love Island contestant to pay for stays in luxury hotels, helicopter trips, and travel to different parts of the world, Derbyshire Constabulary said.
Ms Baker, who works in the force's International Liaison Office specialising in tracking down foreign national offenders, said: "Given his extensive offending there was a real concern that, armed with a new name, he could begin targeting new victims.
In the documentary, actress Claire Merry, the former wife of Arsenal striker Thierry Henry, and Georgia Steel, who appeared in the 2018 edition of the ITV reality show Love Island, told how they had been duped by him.
"It has been a lengthy process to track him down and ensure he is brought back to the UK but I am pleased that we have now managed to achieve this thanks to work with a number of international law enforcement agencies," she said.
