## Resource

This week's Fraudwire is a full buffet of people succeeding at lying on the internet. Join us as we discuss the Temptation Island star who faked her way through Duke University, the man in a 49ers helmet (no pads, no roster spot, just vibes) who suckered $1.3 million out of dozens of women, and the AI-generated celebrity endorsement that tricked a UK-resident into giving away a quarter million pounds. Sure, nobody died, but a lot of people got got.
