What Was That Like - True Stories. Real People.

Listen now: Scamfluencers "Pharmacist Femme Fatale"


Listen Later

You never really know someone…especially online. In today’s

world, the power of influence can be the quickest path to money and fame, and
it often ends in ruin. These are the stories of the world’s most insidious
Scamfluencers. And we are their prey. On Wondery’s new weekly series, join
co-hosts Scaachi Koul and Sarah Hagi as they unpack epic stories of deception
from the worlds of social media, fashion, finance, health, and wellness. These
influencers claim to be everything from charismatic healers to trusted
financial insiders to experts in dating. They cast spells over millions. Why do
we believe them, and how does our culture allow them to thrive? From Black Swan
Murder to a fake social media influencer to an audacious Hollywood Ponzi
schemer, each season will take the listener along the twists and turns, the
impact on victims, and what’s left when the facade falls away.
