Manage episode 352858301 series 3305914
It's January and we already have some strong contenders for scammers of the year! Our main story is the startup Frank, which was called "the Amazon for college admissions". Frank's application for top scammer was strong when CEO Charlie Javice completely fabricated 4 MILLION accounts in order to secure the bag (a $175M JPMC acquisition).
We also talk Mae's honeymoon which oddly included time in the red light district of Amsterdam (sorry if you're Dutch - the reviews aren't great). Of course, we can't lose an opportunity to talk about the fairytale resume of George Santos. The guy whose balls can be seen from space. Enjoy!
