Description

This is an Interview with a man convicted of a Ponzi scheme. It originally aired on the PRETEND podcast.


Bill Livolsi says he was just trying to help his wife, Linda, the ringleader of a multi-million dollar investment scam.


In this episode, Bill opens up about how he got roped into the scheme, ignored every red flag, and ultimately landed in prison. He describes fake hedge funds, imaginary employees, and a key investor who also happened to be a self-proclaimed witch and lottery winner.


But here’s the twist: Linda isn’t just any con artist. She’s the sister of the woman who tried to steal Elvis Presley’s Graceland—something we covered in a previous episode of PRETEND.


Yeah, this story just got a whole lot weirder.
