Florida man mistaken for Jeffrey Epstein sends internet into frenzy: ‘I’m just me being me’

It may be the worst kind of mistaken identity — being confused for Jeffrey Epstein.

A Florida man is speaking out after a viral video of him driving a convertible sparked widespread speculation that he resembled disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

The unidentified man, who calls himself "Palm Beach Pete" on social media, said he was blindsided after video of him cruising along a South Florida highway began circulating widely, fueling conspiracy theories that Epstein could still be alive.
