Well Stephanie and Karen went away, but scams sure didn't. We're always going to tell you about them, but probably not as frequently as before.  Join us for our first episode in...forever.

It's Season FOUR of SCAMTIME! A podcast where your hosts Stephanie Wolfe and Karen Johnson-Diamond share stories of liars, cheaters, hoodwinkers and swindlers, not to mention scoundrels, dirtbags, bamboozlers and toeheads.  We are not investigative journalists , though at times we have played the part of investigative journalists in our daily lives as actor/improvisers.

In this episode: Karen shares a scam that a friend of hers experienced right before her very eyes. Stephanie should REALLY FILL OUT THE CVS SURVEY!!!!

Horror westerns!

Hallmark movies!

Samurai knives!

All the names scammers call Stephanie!

Every email to Stephanie:
"Dear Client,At CVS, we are constantly trying to improve our service and would like to hear your feedback on how we performed.The survey is short and will only take 2 minutes to complete.And Of Course there's a $90 promo reward to you After FinishingTake surveyWe appreciate your partnership and collaboration".

Thanks to a listener named Karen (EXcellent name...) we bring you today's episode that  might even be more fun/heartbreaking to listen to if you listen to Episode #8 first. You can find that here:  Frank and Dave: What happened?

Listener Karen seemed to know that we, as hosts , rarely have our fingers of the pulse of recent happenings. So she clued us into the updates about Frank Abagnale Jr. of "Catch Me If You Can" fame.


No Money Christmas!

Whose side is Karen on?

Flying Plane Guy!

Hair dye allergies!
