🎙️ Heists, Hustles, and Homicide – The Wrap Sheet

Fry-Fueled Fraud: The McDonald’s Monopoly Scam

Did you really think your odds of winning that million-dollar Boardwalk prize were fair? Think again! 🍟🎲 This week on Heists, Hustles, and Homicide, Steve and Sam take a deep dive (like, extra crispy deep) into the golden-brown world of the McDonald’s Monopoly scam. Meet Uncle Jerry — the man who turned Happy Meals into hush money and made the Hamburglar look like an amateur.

From greasy sticker hoarding and sock smuggling to fake film crews and FBI wiretaps, we break down how one man turned a beloved fast-food game into his personal crime buffet. Because when it comes to fraud, apparently it does come with fries.

🕵️‍♂️ Did Jerry think he was untouchable? What would you do with a million-dollar sticker? And how did the FBI bring him down with a side of undercover burger wrappers? Tune in as Steve and Sam peel back the greasy layers of this crime of the century!

PLUS: Stay tuned for the next episode, where we tackle The Tinder Swindler — the billionaire bachelor who made hearts flutter and wallets empty faster than a super-sized combo. Swipe right on crime!

About the Podcast

Heists, Hustles, and Homicide
True Crime Stories
Welcome to Heists, Hustles, and Homicide — the true crime podcast where brains, betrayal, and blood all share the same spotlight.
I'm Big Steve your host, and each week, I’ll take you into the minds of the boldest criminals, the slickest con artists, and the darkest murderers history has to offer.
Some of these stories you’ve heard whispers of.
Some have been buried.
And some? They were never supposed to be uncovered at all.
We’ll crack open legendary heists that rewrote the rules…
We’ll follow the hustlers who schemed their way into the high life…
And we’ll revisit chilling homicides that still haunt investigators — and victims’ families — decades later.
But this isn’t just about crime.
It’s about people.
What drives someone to pull off the perfect con — or the perfect murder?
Is it desperation? Greed? Ego? Revenge?
Each episode, we’ll unravel one real-life case — beginning to end.
Some episodes will play out like thrillers.
Others will feel like puzzles missing a single, crucial piece.
And in every one, we’ll ask the same question:
How far would you go?
So whether you're into high-stakes break-ins, twisted lies, or unsolved crimes that keep you up at night — welcome.
You’ve found your new obsession.
This is Heists, Hustles, and Homicide.
Make sure to follow the show, and buckle up — episode one drops next week”.
Trust me, you won’t want to miss it.
