I was a waiter and she talked down to me like I was trash. Wish I knew she was a theif that whole time.
-
“I’m a strong member of this community” she’s talking about her role in a prison like she’s at an investor’s luncheon or a Rotary Club meeting! Once a con, always a con! Lol
-
"Gina is thought to be the most prolific female ponzi schemer in history." You go girlboss, show em it's not only men who can steal money from investors.
-
Just remember everyone, if you steal peoples money. Just make sure they're poor 🙄
-
“huge personality.. very magnetic.. very outgoing” ..none of this has to do with character or integrity or ethics
-
This happened to my mom. She ended up getting scammed out of her money by some fraud investment guy. Since she wrote down when they met and how much money he gave her back in payments, only because she insisted, he was prosecuted because of her testimony in court.
-
15 years is a slap on the wrist for a 400 million dollar fraud.
-
These type of scams always rely on one thing: the greed of the people being scammed clouding their judgement.
-
So happy she’s well taken care of in jail…but the story that is missing here is the hundreds of employees that worked in the corporate office (like myself) that were told lies, “business as usual”, and that “there’s nothing to worry about” as they were getting their computers stripped for investigation and laid off one by one without receiving final paychecks or PTO payouts. I’ll continue to be on the lookout for my deserved earnings and maybe a simple apology.
-
Did she say that she's a strong member of the prison community and is teaching classes. Teaching classes on what?.... how to scam people and be a better thief and robber!!!!
-
What's crazy is that these types of people who scam are so clever because they know how to interact with people to develop trust...sounds like she missed her calling as a politician 😂😭🙈
-
One thing I see as I get older. The scams are still the same but every generation, there is a new person like this one who has so much charisma that they will scam you to believing them. Be wise everyone, there is always a scam out there as there is always a victim who will fall for it. Why? Greed! If you think you found an easy way to make money, you will fall for it.
-
Being a "strong member of this (prison) community" is a rather dubious distinction.
-
A 15% monthly retunr-that's insane-a huge red flag! Even annually that's very high.
-
Crazy eyes, they always have crazy eyes.
-
She's so heartless and delusional she actually said "I believed I was going to take the company public and pay all of these people back"... and then what Gina? What was the company going to do then? Refund all the old investors, publicly announce it's a ponzi scheme, and tank the stock? GTFOH
-
"every company I looked at, I was like, how do you get your money, how do you operate this business" great questions to ask!
-
The emotional rollercoaster she went through at 16:21 threw me off lol
-
08:25 'Gina's assistant has an assistant' is a subplot straight out of Brooklyn 99....
-
Steals half a billion, gets 15 in a cushy federal prison. Yeah, "justice" was served.
