A Solar-Powered Con Artist: Jeff Carpoff

from Ridiculous Crime · host iHeartPodcasts

He was not an engineer, nor was he an inventor, instead he was a failed car mechanic. But Jeff Carpoff didn't let that stop him from creating a billion dollar business based on his invention: a portable solar generator. It worked, kinda... and that was all he needed to run his solar-powered con that roped in a really powerful sucker named President Obama. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
