An Atlanta woman went on camera with TMZ TV and said David Copperfield made a move on her during his Vegas show, just days before the FBI raided his Vegas warehouse and seized digital camera equipment and a computer hard drive.
The woman -- Amanda from Atlanta -- says Copperfield's people singled her out before the show and "marked" her for David to invite her onstage during the performance. Afterward, Amanda, who was wearing an extremely short dress, says David wanted to meet her backstage, where she was escorted by one of his assistants.
As TMZ first reported, sources say Copperfield has used his show to "pick up women," targeting them in the audience, bringing them backstage after the show, taking their pictures with a digital camera, and then interviewing them on the things they liked. In particular, we're told the women were asked if they liked the Bahamas -- Copperfield owns a series of islands there.
The investigation was triggered by a Seattle woman who claims Copperfield sexually assaulted her in the Bahamas. Copperfield denies any wrongdoing.
Other women have written on the TMZ message board, recounting experiences where Copperfield allegedly hit on them during his shows.
To hear Amanda's story and the tales of other women, watch TMZ tonight. Check your local listings.
2. Seriously, he probably did hit on her. I'm sure he's used to some weird magician groupies and is just used to women falling under his spell. EWWW!!!

3. So his show is his wingman....so what!? I would hope that these girls realized his game...if not, then they deserved what they got!
4. I went to one of his many Vegas shows and yes he pulls tons of girls on stage during the shows and I was one of them but he was nothing but respectful during my time on stage. He was very friendly and while I cannot completely rule out the possibility that he did something wrong, there are always girls looking to get attention in any way they can find.
8. Just look at her... looking like a filthy lil' s_ut! She was asking for it.

9. mmmmm doing interviews about an investigation that is not even completed yet??? Probably because she knows nothing will come out of it and she knows that at least she could get her 15 mins and some cash by doing interviews.
What a suprise - she poses for photos & does an innuendo laced 15 minutes of fame for TMZ $$$ - she is a low class tramp & I bet she reads these comments!
