This NYU freshman wa🧸s allegedly earning a degree in grand larceny.
A first-year political science major ripped off 🐽roughly $51,000 worth of her roommate’s pricey possessions, including luxe labels such as Gucꦍci, Chanel and Bvlgari — and then hawked them online for a quick buck, according to a lawsuit.
Aurora Agapov’s Russian mining magnate father Andre has a net worth of about $75 million as the head of the Vancouver-based Rusoro Mining. The company’s board includes Dmitry Ushakov, who worked for an oligarch with direct ties to Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. Aurora Agapov realized some of her belongings were missing last month as she completed her freshman year, she said in a Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit.
Agapov became suspicious of her roommate Kaitlyn Fung, 18, after finding a receipt in the Old Tappan, NJ girl’s pocketb𒁏ook from consignment retailer The Real Real that listed Agapov’s missing items, acco𝓡rding to court papers.
The com🌼pany has an app and a Soho outlet on Wooster Street.
“My heart dropped,” said Agapov, 19, an artsℱ major who is originally from Loཧndon.
The two roomies had been “quite good friends” before she discovered her🐈 pal was allegedly robbing her blind, Agapov told The Post.
“We spoke pretty much every day.🎃 I’d say we didn’t really have any falling outs or anything,” she said.
“If anything our relations💯hip got better towards the second semester.”
When she realized in May the extent of the theft, Agapov⛦ told F🙈ung to spend the night elsewhere and moved her own stuff out of their room at NYU’s Founders Hall dorm on East 12th Street.
“I didn’t sleep that night,” she said.
“My mother gifted me those things. They mean a lot to m🐟e.”꧒
Fung’s sales skills were as bad as her thievery, the lawsuit alleged, as s꧒he massively undervalued the stolen goods she did manage to unload.
Fung is 🍸accused of selling Agapov’s Bvlgari necklace — worth $13,000 — for a measly $2,485, and a Chanel Stra💞ss bracelet valued at $2,000 for a pittance of $175, Agopov said in court papers.
Other stolen items were listed for sale but had yet to be purchased by the time Agapov realized what was going on, including a Solange Azagury ⛄18K ruby ring valued at $23,765; a Celine Nanno tote worth $3,300; and a Chanel purse worth $4,000, she said in the legal fil🐽ing.
Fung 𝔉also allegedly stole Agapov’s Gucci and Celine handbags, but had the items returned to her, Agapov alleged in the litigation.
Fung was arrested ജon May 2 on a third-degree grand larceny charge and released.
The criminal case is pending.
When Agapov went to the brick and mortar outpost of The Real Real to get her stuf🅷f back, a worker told her Fung’s mom had appear𝓰ed days earlier to collect the items, she said in court papers.
Fung did not return messages seeking comment.
Agapov is seeking $51,000 in damages and thꦯ🌳e return of any stolen, but unsold, items.
NYU said it was prohibited by law from revealing disciplinary actions against individ𝕴ual students, but spokesman called stealing from a roommate “a lousy thing to do, ♚and a rarity among the 12,000 students we have in student housing,” adding consequences typically include suspension.
The Real Real said it requires consigners to confirm they have the ri🐎ght to sell items and that they are not stolen.
“If we receive any information that items might be stolen, we act fast by removing them from the site and starti🍌ng an invesꦛtigation,” a spokesperson said in a statement.
