Don’t Get Played | Crypto Scam & Get-Rich-Quick Schemes

Every day, young men are getting finessed online; from crypto rugpulls and fake NFTs to “flip $500 into $5,000” DMs. In this episode of Failures: The Podcast, Rich and Justin break down how even smart guys get caught slipping, and why the promise of fast money is one of the oldest traps in the book.

Rich shares how he lost $15K chasing Tesla hype. Justin tells the story of getting scammed for a fake gold chain at 16. Together, they connect the dots on the psychology of scams — urgency, isolation, celebrity hype, and desperation — and lay out the red flags you need to watch for.
