Our latest Fraudwire before the end of summer break at LPN. This week we cover Juicyfields.io - a hybrid cannabis and crypto scam where people could "invest" in different grows of their favorite weed strains. There is a special place in hell for those that defraud around the sweet sinsemilla.

 

And have you ever heard of the Carried Interest loophole? It's one of those things you hear in the news, but wtf is it all about? We do a quick dive into that and who is holding up congress for it.
