The Fraud So Big… It Created a Kingdom That Didn’t Exist

Описание: Step into one of the most unbelievable chapters in financial history — when a Scottish con man invented an entire country, fooled Europe’s smartest investors, and nearly sparked a global financial collapse. And the wildest part? This entire scheme was exposed not by governments or spies… but by one quiet accountant who followed the numbers.

In this video, we uncover the true story behind Gregor MacGregor and the fake nation of Poyais, one of the boldest scams of the 1800s. Through forged documents, fake maps, invented cities, and cleverly written propaganda, MacGregor convinced thousands to invest in — and even relocate to — a country that never existed.

But when the numbers stopped adding up, accountant Charles Woodbury stepped in. His investigation revealed the shocking truth behind a deception that cost lives, destroyed fortunes, and changed global finance forever.
