Show Notes

In 1925 Victor Lustig sold the Eiffel tower to an up-and-coming scrap metal dealer. One thing though, the Eiffel tower wasn't for sale and the whole thing was a big ol' scam. This also wasn't Lustig's only scheme either, he also sold a machine that printed $1000 bills. Check it out. Also in Heist News -- keep an eye out for hot tubs on the black market.

HEEEIST!
