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. Listen to Scamfluencers on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen early and ad-free on Wondery+. Join Wondery+ in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

Always enjoy listening to the stories and banter between the ladies but don’t keep releasing the encores…. Also don’t diss Australia unless you’ve visited 🇦🇺
Had so much potential

I’m a little sad tonight… I loved this podcast and the duo who present it, but after listening to the Abbie Miller episode I’m unsubscribing. They explain the depths of the abuse this woman dished up to children, then completely whitewashed it and even worse, then lauded it as good television. There’s a line and, for me, they crossed it, for the completely banal reason of mindless entertainment. I’m a little disappointed and just unsubscribed.
Love it!
