Scam Gumbo w/ Solomon Georgio (Fraud Friday)

In this high-energy, emotionally raw episode of Fraud Fridays, Scam Goddess Lacey Mosley welcomes comedian Solomon Georgio for a wild, unfiltered conversation that blends personal trauma, scam confessions, and biting social commentary. Lacey opens up about her health struggles, including enlarged fibroids and the emotional toll of being a Black woman, while also celebrating her resilience and joy. The episode becomes a cathartic exploration of scamming as both a survival tactic and a form of rebellion against systemic inequities. Solomon shares his own history as a 'velvet rope scammer'—from forging his mother’s signature to embezzling from corporate systems—framing it as a natural evolution of hustling in a broken system. They dissect a $7.2 million pandemic loan scam involving 72 fake businesses using a single address, mocking the government’s lax oversight. The conversation shifts to listener-submitted scams, including a Venmo impersonation scheme, Amazon return exploits, and a woman who faked being a prosecutor to drop charges against herself. Lacey and Solomon use humor and outrage to expose how everyday systems—from banks to food corporations—are themselves scams, culminating in a powerful call to reclaim power through strategic deception and collective resistance. The episode ends on a note of sisterhood, with Lacey urging listeners to share their stories and stay scheming.
