Andrew and Nona welcome Triple Z Music to the 'He's Wrong She's Right' podcast for a deep dive into the world of scams, fraud, and the bizarre cast of characters behind them. They focus on Captain Ralph Avalon, a notorious scammer from Western North Carolina, currently jailed in Palm Beach County, Florida, on charges of grand theft, forgery, and violating protective orders.
The discussion reveals how Avalon's elaborate cons, especially after Hurricane Helene, funneled thousands through a fake 501(c)(3) called the Patriot Survival Tactical Team. The hosts stress the importance of vetting charities—if you can’t find one on Facebook fundraisers, it’s likely a sham.
Andrew and Nona's watchdog group, DEI Solutions (Disrupt Expose Integrity Solutions), serves as a safeguard against fraud. The conversation weaves through personal stories, including Andrew’s own brush with mistaken identity over his brother’s crime, showing the real impact of these schemes.
They also bring humor into the mix, coining “weaponized autism” to describe their relentless drive to expose scammers, sharing tales of hacking, trolling, conspiracy theories, and internet sleuthing. Triple Z Music explains how his background in rap and the underground scene helps uncover wrongdoers.
The episode details Avalon's ongoing legal battles and his knack for dodging justice by setting up new fraudulent ventures. As comic relief, Andrew describes stumbling through Avalon's jail records and the irony of being able to send care packages to inmates—prompting trolling ideas.
Lighter moments surface as the hosts chat about music, building cyber defenses, and even haunted houses. The show closes with a call to action: listeners are encouraged to send any fraud or scam tips to DEI Solutions at [email protected].
