Adding to the Fraud Story Featured on "Super Pumped"

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

A specific fraud ring from several years ago was featured on the recent docuseries about the controversial former CEO of Uber, Travis Kalanick titled "Super Pumped" (Showtime). Because it's fairly uncommon for fraud to play a part in storytelling about the tech world, Karisse had to talk about it. Also, she knows a lot more details about the fraud attack mentioned than the television writers did.

What did the show get right, and what didn't they know enough about? How was this specific type of fraud so challenging for apps to identify back then? What lessons were learned by that team that helped reduce the fraud problem while playing by the rules of the app store? And why does Karisse feel OK sharing this information about a specific company? -These will all be answered.

After talking about this story, Karisse answers a few recent listener questions.
