'Jeff Bezos from Temu' tricks fans in Venice ahead of wedding

“Jeff Bezos from Temu.”

On Thursday in Venice, fans and tourists accidentally followed a man resembling Jeff Bezos, as the Amazon mogul was getting ready to marry Lauren Sanchez.

Amidst photographers capturing Bezos and his fiancée navigating the picturesque Italian canals, a few people mistakenly thought they spotted him leisurely walking through the iconic St Mark’s Square.

A TikTok video shared by @danishtransporter captured the scene of the Bezos double being pursued by a crowd and a camera crew as he wandered the cobblestone streets.

The man in the shot, though, was actually the billionaire’s professional doppelgänger.

Cagdas Halicilar, a 47-year-old from Germany, has spent months cashing in on his uncanny resemblance to the Amazon boss.

“I look like his twin brother,” Halicilar told Jam Press last year.

Halicilar, who quit his electrician job and landed a contract at a doppelgänger agency, has claimed in the past that he’s routinely swarmed for selfies by fans who think he’s the bonafide Bezos.

Moonlighting as Bezos has seen him score a host of gigs on German TV stations and events of late, including the Netflix series “King of Stonks.”

Despite being a dead ringer for the business magnate, some social media users were quick to spot the mix up as the clip of Halicilar walking through Venice started spreading on social media.

“Jeff Bazos from Shein,” one person joked alongside the video, while another commented: “Jeff Bezos from Temu.”

Still, it isn’t the first time he’d managed to fool people into thinking he is Bezos.

He once supposedly tricked Amazon employees into thinking he was the real deal.

“When I was in Seattle with my friends, we walked through the Amazon campus,” Halicilar said.

”All the Amazon employees came to me, wanted selfies and thanked me for being proud to work at Amazon.”
