This is an episode full of music and singing from our melodious voices, yay! Let’s give it a warm and cozy welcome to our latest professional Fraudster: Jacob Wohl. This is the first part of The Wohl Story, and we can’t help but wonder if this is fiction, crime or fraud: For the next episodes, you’ll be hearing about the tedious story of a young fraudster that, with less than 20 years old, already had a long fraud record history with hedge funds. We will remember Miss Cleo… but we’ll discover that fraudsters share some traits you would never imagine. So, let your imagination run wild, and discover the real reason why the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
