Bec (they/them) tells us about Tania Head, a person who pretended to be one of the survivors of the terrorist attacks of 9/11. Known as the woman who wasn't there, we go through all of the actual money, time and effort she put into creating The World Trade Center Survivors Network, but really it seems like the entire sick lie was just for attention.
Adam (he/him) then tells us about Jan Marsalek, with a glimmer in his eye he makes a name for himself in e-commerce in the early days of the internet. Eventually his wildly successful company Wirecard comes under fire when it turns out that their success is not as it seems.
