Social grifter Anna Sorokin was released early from a New York State prison Thursday for good behavior, according to Department of Corrections records.

Sorokin, 29, who posed as a German heiress worth 60 million euros to scam businesses and banks, strolled out of Albion Correction Facility, near Rochester — which was first reported by Insider.

The Board of Parole granted her “merit time release,” which shaved off 1/6 of her sentence, for her stellar disciplinary record and participation in various prison programs.

Sorokin, also known as Anna Delvey, told the Board that she planned to live with a male friend once free — but will likely be deported to Germany soon after.

During the parole hearing, the famously unrepentant con-woman finally apologized for her crimes. “I just want to say that I’m really ashamed and I’m really sorry for what I did,” according to a transcript of the Oct. 6 hearing.

Sorokin was convicted in 2019 of grand larceny and other raps for stealing $200,000 from businesses and for fraudulently trying to score a $22 million loan to launch a Manhattan art club.

The wannabe socialite, who has been paid at least $320,000 from Netflix for the rights to her life story, plans to write a book. She has paid $200,000 of her earnings in restitution.
