After stepping in to help a buyer get refunded for a counterfeit Chanel bag (she has not been refunded), I woke up to a flood of threatening emails and voice messages. In this episode, I share how quickly things escalated and what it reveals about the scammer in luxury resale which should not be a surprise to anyone who has had any sort of interactions with him.

In this episode of Closet Full of Cash, we’re talking about some of the biggest stories currently impacting the luxury resale industry. From the Poshmark shoe return scam, to Entrupy’s move away from hardware devices and into app-based authentication, we unpack what these shifts mean for resellers and the industry impact it will have.

We also discuss LVMH’s recent revenue decline, what it signals about the state of luxury retail, and why resale continues to outpace retail as consumers become more value conscious, and sustainability focused. Plus, we dive into Meta’s growing AI moderation problem and how automated systems are leading to accounts being hacked and stolen.

Before there were victims reaching out, social media warnings, and years of documented complaints, there was a single Instagram account that caught my attention.

In Episode 2 of Anatomy of a Scam, I share how I first became aware of a luxury reseller operating out of Canada and he was passing off counterfeit luxury items as authentic. What started as a simple conversation with a new luxury reseller, it would eventually turn into a ten-year journey of collecting stories, reviewing evidence, and speaking with people who say they were left financially and emotionally devastated.

This episode isn't about how the scam worked. It's about how I got involved, why I stayed involved, and what kept bringing me back to a story that refused to go away.

You can read the original blog post that started it all here: "Should You Shop Instagram?"

For more than a decade, I’ve followed the story of a Canadian luxury reseller and stylist whose name has repeatedly surfaced alongside allegations of counterfeit trafficking, knowingly selling fake luxury handbags, harassment, intimidation, and stalking. Behind the polished image and designer labels are years of accusations, unanswered questions, and individuals who claim they were harmed along the way.

In this first episode, we begin unpacking a story that has quietly circulated throughout the luxury resale industry for years, examining the allegations, the impact, and why so many people stayed silent for so long.
