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. 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.

    Buford Pusser: The Lying Lawman | 238
    Oct 26 2026
    Buford Pusser was a small-town Tennessee sheriff who conned an entire country into believing he was a hero. He inspired a film franchise, folk songs, and multiple books – all painting him as a fearless vigilante taking on organized crime. But behind the legend lies a trail of abuse, corruption, and a grisly murder that raised questions everyone in Buford’s orbit had been too scared to ask. And when the Hollywood shine wears off, the lie people wanted to believe becomes harder to protect.
