I came back to this episode after watching the Tinder Swindler on Netflix and it was helpful to put them both together because you have some pieces of the puzzle here that were not in the show and vice versa!

I can't believe I know the name 'Shappelle Corby' but not Maria Exposto. How horrifying for her.

My mom is a recent widow. I just texted my brother and sister telling them we need to keep an eye on her. I’m wondering what stopgaps are in place here to keep people from racking up debt for others.

Glad to hear some good news at the end. I think the thing that most consistently has infuriated me with so many of the stories you've touched on is how absolutely impossible it is to get a crook to admit their wrong doing. It's infuriating.
