For over a decade, millions played McDonald’s Monopoly — hoping to win cash, cars, or the elusive $1 million prize. But behind the golden fries and happy meals was one of the most elaborate frauds in American history. In this episode, we dive into the wild true story of Jerome Jacobson, the ex-cop turned security executive who stole game pieces and built a criminal empire with mob ties, fake winners, and millions in stolen prizes. From FBI sting operations to fast food families playing dirty, this is the real-life McHeist — the scam that fooled the world.
