Drew Brees fears San Diego jeweler defrauded others: 'It was all a scam'

Drew Brees fears he might not be the only one.

The New Orleans Saints quarterback said in a statement from his lawyer, Andrew F. Kim, on Wednesday (April 4) that he moved forward with a lawsuit against a San Diego jeweler "because we fear we are not the only ones (Vahid Moradi of CJ Charles Jewelers) has misled and defrauded."

The lawsuit seeks at least $9 million in damages after an independent appraiser valued eight items purchased between 2012 and 2016 to be $9 million less than what Brees and his wife, Brittany, paid, according to a San Diego court filing.
