E94: About Fraud in Venture
Fraud may not be prevalent in the venture landscape, but when it does happen it stands out for its audacity, impact, and, at times, surprisingly evident warning signs.
In this episode, David and Paul guide listeners through recent instances of fraud in the venture sector and offer insights on how to identify potential schemes before becoming entangled. The discussion includes a review of the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) record of enforcement actions and delves into specific cases, such as the alleged fraud involving Charlie Javice in the acquisition of Frank by JP Morgan, the conviction of Michael Rothenburg, often dubbed the 'Party Animal of Silicon Valley,' and other notable examples.
