Mystery Woman Poses as Heiress at Sydney Police Station

Authorities in Sydney are investigating a potential impersonation case involving a mysterious Chinese heiress, LanLan Yang. A woman recently appeared at the Rose Bay police station, posing as Yang to fulfill bail reporting obligations. This incident occurred subsequent to a significant collision on July 26, 2025, where Yang's $1.5 million Rolls-Royce Cullinan crashed into a Mercedes van, causing severe, potentially career-ending injuries to the chauffeur.

The woman who reported to the station on Wednesday, wearing designer clothing, presented herself as Yang. However, when confronted by a reporter, she admitted to being 'someone else.' Police are now investigating if Yang is currently residing at her Watsons Bay penthouse, as she has not been seen there since October 2025. The woman who reported for bail arrived in a black Rolls-Royce Ghost convertible, which she stated was not hers.
