Episode 10: Lesley
Lesley was lured into a scam known as “skanai” and was scammed out of over 300k. This type of scam involves people posing as officials. They reach out or approach unsuspecting individuals like Lesley to offer them services. Upon agreement, they invite them to their ‘offices’ but take them hostage as they hold the individual hostage until they are done withdrawing their money from their account. And this is the very scam that Willie used to operate.
