Steve Comisar, born December 30, 1961, is an American con artist known for a series of high-profile frauds. In the 1980s, he notoriously sold a "solar-powered clothes dryer" for $49.95, which was merely a length of clothesline. Throughout his criminal career, Comisar amassed an estimated $10 million through various scams, earning him the moniker "the Jeffrey Dahmer of fraud." Despite multiple convictions and prison sentences, his fraudulent activities persisted over decades.
