Sammy Antar
Sammy Antar is a notorious figure in the world of white-collar crime, known for his role as the CFO of the consumer electronics chain Crazy Eddie, which became infamous for its fraudulent practices in the 1980s. After taking part in the scheme that involved inflating company value and skimming profits, Antar pleaded guilty to multiple felonies and cooperated with prosecutors to convict his cousin, Eddie Antar, who fled the country. Over the years, Sammy has reinvented himself as a fraud expert and consultant, providing insights on financial deception to government agencies and law firms. Recently, he has found himself in the headlines again, claiming to have uncovered evidence of mortgage fraud by New York Attorney General Letitia James, asserting that his extensive experience in fraud detection positions him uniquely to expose wrongdoing.
