Recorded live in Bali at the HAA Assist Collaboration Conference, this high-energy episode of The Sounds of the Baskerville pulls back the curtain on some of Australia’s most audacious financial schemes. James Flaherty and insolvency expert Chris Baskerville share gripping real-world stories—from chasing down millions through last-minute freezing orders to uncovering forged investment documents and elaborate Ponzi structures. Chris reveals the red flags every investor should recognise, including the “magic 20% return” trap, bait-and-switch tactics, and the use of fake information memorandums to dodge corporate regulations. You’ll hear how greed, charm, and complex structures are used to disarm victims—and how sharp investigation work can still bring fraudsters undone. Whether you’re a finance professional, business owner, or simply fascinated by high-stakes financial drama, this episode is a masterclass in spotting scams before it’s too late. It’s part education, part true-crime—and 100% eye-opening.
