Enron was very different to those two. They were running an actual business, but using incredibly complicated and technically legal accounting techniques to hide losses and inflate profits.

Theranos was plain fraud, where Elizabeth Holes was brazenly lying about what her machine could do and fabricating results by using standard machines.

As far as I understand, the FTX fraud was like Theranos in that it was very unsophisticated.

This could be achieved on a large scale with gas.

Could this be achieved without contaminating the meat?

I find it insane that someone can do so much damage to you by just having your SS number. Is this an exclusively American thing? I can't imagine a bank giving me a credit card in someone else's name just by having that person's equivalent to a social security number.
