Even with the bribe gifts, the amount of promotions for doing absolutely nothing is mind boggling.
Did he also buy a Delorean with his ill-gotten gains? Sentenced in 2023 but released in 2020 😆
Oof. Nice catch. 2013* Will fix. Thank you!
"The honorable loudmouth in the back there!" Lololol
I remember Queensland Health staff being given vouchers for coffee and told to go see the Salvos if they needed help while the payroll stuff was happening.
How odd that this is already the second case on Swindled of a con-man pretending to be a prince.
I want the confidence of someone who can pull this shit off. I never get to embezzle anything!
QUEENSLAND FOREVER!!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 YAAAARRGGHHHHH!!!
Listening to this from QLD! Great episode as always
I'm going to Queensland this December! Flying from Philadelphia to Brisbane. My first time in Australia! I'm so excited.
Sooo relieved to see the US doesn't have a complete monopoly on greed, corruption, and bureaucratic ineptitude.
When we screw up, we do it *hardcore* 😉
YAY! Makes my day to get a new one! Thanks for everything 🧡
Love seeing this pop up on my Patreon feed wish there was an episode every day but I know it’s a long process 🥳 just made my day

Venture to say the main story isn't the biggest swindle of the episode 👀 excellent listen!
