Shownotes

In the hills of Calabasas, perception is everything. David Bunevacz understood this better than anyone.

But Bunevacz wasn’t selling cannabis vape pens; he was selling an image. While his victims were losing their life savings, David was spending millions at Vegas casinos and buying $330,000 horses. Join us as we break down the anatomy of a $45 million scam, from the forged purchase orders to the moment the FBI finally knocked on the door of his luxury estate.
