The McDonald's Monopoly scandal is a fascinating tale of deception and greed that unfolded over more than a decade. The scandal came to light thanks to an anonymous tip, leading to an FBI investigation that involved undercover operations and even a fake TV commercial to catch the culprits. The story has been chronicled in the HBO documentary series McMillions, which delves into the intricate details of the scam, the people involved, and the eventual takedown of the operation. This scam resulted in over $24 million dollars and over 50 people involved.
