It's Fraud Friday! This week, we revisit our episode with Solomon Georgio. We discuss Sarma Melngailis, a business woman who went from the “Queen of Vegan Cuisine" to the “Vegan Bernie Madoff”. Plus, pet scams have become such a problem in Michigan that the Michigan Attorney General released a video warning residents. Stay Schemin'! This was recorded on March 3rd, 2022.
