About this listen
In 2017, Katelyn McClure went viral with her story about getting stranded on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia and Johnny Bobbitt, Jr., who gave her $20. She and then-boyfriend Mark D'Amico shared the encounter online, complete with a roadside photo of her and Bobbitt, and started the GoFundMe, promising to get the homeless veteran off the street. The fundraiser collected about $367,000 from more than 14,000 donations.
The Ripoff is a podcast all about scams! Every episode Tony Celano researches a new scam and tells it to comedians Eric Freedman and Willie Simon, who rip it apart.
