"Such an incredible scam story. I highly recommend for people to listen as you learn from these kinds of situations. It truly is remarkable, scary, and sad. "
Daniella (she/her)
"Absolutely riveting! Was recommended this and was hooked from the first episode. This woman faked having cancer, multiple times, and lived out a very fraudulent life, causing people to donate tons of money and gifts to help cure her. The whole time you are listening, you are wondering how can a person do something this elaborate? "

"This is wild. Worth the listen! "
Katie Harrison
"This story is outrageous and will make you so angry at this sorry excuse for a human. Great investigative work by the team, especially Nancy, who was targeted herself by Scamanda. I appreciate how much time was spent telling the victims’ stories, but there was a lot of rehashing that took up more time than necessary. Don’t miss the bonus episodes for even more stories and details!"

"Addicted to this show!!! "
Katie Beth McCarthy
"Appalling but addicting. I got so mad but also was curious to see how far her madness goes. A legendary tale of a diabolical nut."
Angelica Smith
"Good but a bit too long. Could have been told with a couple less episodes. Otherwise good listen."
