Saturday Mornings: "Scams, Stocks & Secret Deals: Project Brazen Exposes Southeast Asia’s $1.5B Dirty Money Network"
Description
📻 “Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys talk with investigative journalist and Billion Dollar Whale co-author Tom Wright to unpack Project Brazen’s latest exposé—an alleged $1.5 billion criminal enterprise stretching from scam centers in Southeast Asia to high-powered boardrooms and luxury penthouses around the world. The investigation reveals how a transnational network quietly took control of a major financial institution, allegedly breaking securities laws and laundering billions in crypto, shares, and cash. With suspected protection from political elites, the operation uses shell companies, crypto exchanges, and opaque offshore fund structures to move illicit money through the region’s financial systems—while regulators remain silent. We explore how scam centers in the region are estimated to siphon $10 billion annually from unsuspecting victims, and why international authorities are increasingly concerned about the lack of enforcement and transparency.
