Publisher's summary

He was a cunning Berkeley Law grad who lost his job and hatched a con. Then he got rich and ran fast on an outlandish Adderall-fueled rush of stolen cash, multiple identities, and a euphoric fantasy of success.

A Ponzi scheme was exposed, and a prominent Manhattan hedge fund imploded. Enterprising intern and financial wizard-in-training Gerti Muho saw it as an opportunity. He had insider knowledge and a knack for fraud, embezzlement, and identity theft. His steady supply of falsified prescriptions helped. Muho was on a luxury high. His luck seemed bottomless. Considering what was to come, he’d need it.

David Gauvey Herbert’s The Two Million Dollar Intern is part of Exposure, a collection of six incredible and true stories of American double lives from millionaire CEOs and suburban teens to undercover investigators and scam artists - all for whom secrets are a way of life. Each piece can be listened to in a single astonished sitting.

Con Man Intern Excelled at ID Theft

This is a fascinating account of a con man with a great deal of luck. He learned from another con man, taking advantage of the state of distress at a hedge fund firm and began a crime spree that devastated many former clients and co-workers by stealing their identities. Fortunately, he made the mistake of stealing the identity of a billionaire's son. That enabled a family with considerable resources to hunt him down and end his drug filled crime spree. It is amazing how someone who could not communicate very well could steal so much. I'm glad he was caught. A great short read. I read this book using immersion reading while listening to the audiobook. The narrator, Neil Shah sounds a great deal like Zachary Quinto.

Average Story

This was a short read, and is part of the Exposure collection (free with Amazon prime). This was just okay for me; it was well written, but I just didn't get into the story line.

Interesting

This real life story is mind blowing. He is a thief using the resources of the people he stole from, thus no overhead. Stories like this show how easy it is to be a mark. He is unapologetic like most con men.

Why read fiction, when you can have the real thing.

#32/500

Like Frank Abagnale only Slimy & Imprisoned

A recitation of con shenanigans that, at times, made the hair on my neck rise from the audacious malarkey the TMDI spewed. It positively stood erect when those who stood on the receiving end of his outrageous requests and/or claims bought it. The Impersonation brought a cheesy, low class vibe to the presentation — I’d leave it.

Fascinating story

I found this story fascinating and well told. It's amazing how many assumptions that people make about one another and how easy it could be for one viewing these cultural assumptions (of who to trust etc) with some cold empathetic detachment might be able to so easily manipulate them. I thought the narrator was easy to listen to and the book did a great job with details, pacing and complex details.

A well done journalism piece, although I do wish there was some more background on this guy. How did he get so good at forgery? Truly insane.

The world we live in.

Engrossing and interesting. Scary to know things like that happens. AND how easy it is to steal identities.

So So

A fairly cliched tale of a wrong doer
whose path of transgression is morbidly vicarious. A gigantic shadenfraude.
