If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

A Justin Bieber impersonator ran up a $10,000 bar tab after he tricked staff at a Las Vegas nightclub into believing he was the Canadian pop star — even getting up on the stage for an impromptu performance.

The bizarre incident took place at the five-star Wynn Las Vegas, where LA-based DJ Gryffin was performing at XS Nightclub.

Gryffin was told that Bieber, 31, was in town and wanted to make a surprise appearance during his Saturday night show. Believing he was the real Biebs, he invited him into the DJ booth, TMZ reported.

Video posted on social media shows the shirtless, tattooed impersonator, wearing dark shades and low-slung blue jeans, belting out a version of Bieber’s 2015 hit “Sorry” in front of a packed nightclub crowd, all of whom appeared oblivious about the scam.

The shameless scammer, identified as 29-year-old Dylan Desclos, sang a couple of Bieber’s songs before Wynn staff realized the truth and kicked him off the stage.

Gryffin jokingly dubbed the prank “Beibergate” in an Instagram post, explaining that a “dark venue and loud music didn’t help.”

Gryffin shared a video showing him hyping up the French fake Bieber’s performance before being told the news of the devastating dupe.

The embarrassed entertainer has now posted a video detailing what happened.

Gryffin - real name Daniel Griffith - confessed that 'a dark venue and loud music didn't help' as he was shown talking to 'Jieber' and his team.

"So his 'team' said he wanted to perform Sorry... little did I know that I was about to be sorry," he recalled. Awkward.

Gryffin added: "The place went wild... after 4 mins and 27 seconds of what sounded like Justin Bieber, I found out the worst news imaginable."

The DJ is then seen walking away from his set happily, saying: "That was insane, that was actually insane," before someone said: "Complete fake."

His jaw dropped in horror as he said: "No way!" As his friend insisted: "I swear on my life."

It then cut to Gryffin in his hotel room, saying: "I literally thought he put on a lot of weight since the album dropped."

Social media clips also show the Desclos posing for selfies and browsing stores with his “security guards” during the Vegas trip.

He and his entourage ran up an almost $10,000 bar tab during their stunt, which the fake Bieber eventually paid as he was kicked out, Neon reports.

Desclos, who has shared a number of videos in recent years of him pretending to be Bieber, even got similar tattoos and a matching buzzcut as the real mega star.

Last year, the impersonator caught the attention of Bieber’s wife, Hailey Bieber, after he was spotted on a train in his native France.

“I’m scared…” Hailey commented on a TikTok of an impersonator.

The nightclub has responded to the prank.

“After an elaborate and multi-step ruse by him and his advance team, a Justin Bieber impersonator was granted access to the XS stage,” a representative for Wynn and XS Nightclub told TMZ.

“As soon as the error was recognized, he was removed from the resort and denied future entry.”

Representatives for Desclos did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
