In this episode, we discuss the case of Melissa Caddick, a woman who conned her friends and family out of millions of dollars. We explore Melissa's background, her lies and manipulations, and her extravagant lifestyle. We also touch on her relationships with two men named Tony.

The episode highlights Melissa's narcissistic personality and the devastating consequences of her deceit. Melissa Caddick, a "financial advisor", was involved in a Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors of millions of dollars.

She lived a lavish lifestyle with her husband, Anthony Koletti, who we believe to be unaware of her illegal activities. After authorities raided their home, Melissa disappeared, leaving behind her phone, wallet, and keys. Her foot was later found on a secluded beach, but the cause of her death remains unknown.

The investigation into the missing funds is ongoing, and efforts are being made to recoup the investors' losses.
