The Brooklyn "Genius" Who Scammed Wall Street for $200 Million

Описание: Eddie Antar was a master of the bait and switch who turned a small Brooklyn electronics shop into a household name with prices so low they were labeled insane. While the public saw a retail revolutionary, the reality was a systematic criminal enterprise built on skimming cash, falsifying insurance claims, and creating massive inventory illusions. This story follows the high-stakes deception that allowed a group of street-smart merchants to outmaneuver the sharpest minds on Wall Street during one of the hottest IPOs of the 1980s. As the stock skyrocketed to a $600 million valuation, the internal pressure of maintaining the lie began to tear the Antar family apart. When a messy personal life collided with an unsustainable financial fraud, the empire crumbled, leading to a worldwide chase and a dramatic arrest in Israel. This is the definitive look at how the man who promised to beat every price ended up costing investors everything.
