**Portland, OR** – The popular podcast “Scamanda” is making its television debut. The ABC docuseries, premiering January 30th at 9:00 pm on KATU, details the shocking true story of Amanda Riley, a California woman who defrauded hundreds of people out of thousands of dollars through a meticulously crafted deception.
Riley, presented as a young wife, mother, and devout Christian, initially garnered widespread sympathy and support by publicly documenting her purported battle with Stage 3 blood cancer. However, an anonymous tip to investigative producer Nancy Mosciatello sparked a five-year investigation that ultimately exposed Riley’s elaborate hoax. The docuseries, based on the “Scamanda” podcast hosted by Charlie Webster, unravels Riley’s deception, highlighting inconsistencies and ultimately using her own words to reveal the truth.
