Criminally Darling has Amy talking with repeat guests, investigative producers Nancy Moscatiello and Scott Eldridge from “The Slippery”. They are known for Scamanda and are back to discuss their coverage of Jen Shah’s fraud, including why she served about two years of a six-year sentence, how restitution often amounts to pennies on the dollar, and how Shah allegedly ran a lead-generation operation that evolved into a sales-floor “clean out” scheme targeting seniors; Scott also describes contacting a work-from-home ad to experience the high-pressure pitch and credit-card funnel. They introduce their new long-form series on The Slippery, “The Lexi Con,” about Maryland con artist Lexi Thomas, who allegedly faked illness for a decade, raised nearly $200,000 via GoFundMe plus fundraisers and offline donations, used real doctors’ names, built an elaborate “Lexi-verse,” infiltrated online cancer groups, Photoshopped herself into photos, and even “killed off” real people; the investigation is ongoing, with new tips and law enforcement aware.
