Why Do People Fall for Celeb Romance Scams? & A Laos Poisoning Update


Listen Later

The thought of a celebrity falling in love with you seems pretty implausible to most of us. But why do so many people keep falling for celeb romance scams?

Plus, six months after two Melbourne teenagers died from methanol poisoning in Laos, their mothers are still fighting for justice.

And in headlines today singer Dawn Richard says she feared for her life after allegedly witnessing Sean Combs assault Cassie Ventura; Alleged mushroom killer Erin Patterson's phone pinged towers near known death cap mushroom sites; Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says they will control all of Gaza while retrieving hostages and eliminating Hamas; Joe Exotic has called on help from Donald Trump after his husband was deported to Mexico
