The Top 10 Scammers of All Time - PART 2 (w/ Oscar Montoya)
In the first part of our 5-year Scamaversary countdown we covered Shaun King, Anna Delvey, George Santos, Colton Harris Moore, & Caroline Calloway. In this thrilling conclusion, all-star guest Oscar Montoya helps us rank #5 through #1 on our list. Perhaps you'll see names like Elizabeth Holmes, Billy McFarland, Bernie Madoff, and Hilaria Baldwin... but you'll have to tune in to see who schemed their way to #1!
