Lord Gordon-Gordon, the Robber of Robber-Barons

from Criminalia · host Shondaland Audio and iHeartPodcasts

Between the years 1869 and 1874, a man calling himself Lord Gordon-Gordon swindled the wealthy populations of Scotland, England, the United States, and Canada. Until he began pulling cons in the late 19th century, though, there isn't much information about this guy. We don't even know what his real name was. But we do know he had endless charm and charisma that helped him bilk people out of millions of dollars, including one of the richest and most ruthless railroad tycoons in American history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
