Join host Alissa Fleck for a juicy investigation into companies that make up a big portion of the US economy: multi-level-marketing companies. Some love them, some call them thinly-veiled pyramid schemes or "a cancer on our society." Part I is just the tip of the iceberg in a journey to discovering the truth behind MLMs. If this podcast has surprised you so far, you won't believe the things you hear on IS THIS ILLEGAL? this week and next.

Ft. new podcast theme by Jonathan Mann. 

This week on IS THIS ILLEGAL?, just in time for Halloween, Alissa Fleck examines claims that Nazis have infiltrated the Furry community and discusses the most disturbing case of "extreme haunted housing." These are some seriously bizarre stories of questionable legality. 

Join host Alissa Fleck as she explores death fraud and other hoaxes of questionable legality--and as she contemplates a career change. From the black market for unclaimed corpses to people who were never really there, this one's an emotional rollercoaster. You might even learn something. WARNING: This is NOT your mother's true crime podcast.
