Happy Fraud Friday! This week, we revisit one of our favorite episodes with My Favorite Murder Co-Host Georgia Hardstark. We discuss LuLaRoe, the women’s clothing company embroiled in over 50 lawsuits, unsold leggings and many of their consultants left in crippling debt. Plus, two Chicago women fall victim to a scam leaving one jobless and the other heartbroken.
Recorded on October 12th, 2021.
