About this series:
THE INSTASCAMMER is an audio documentary based on interviews, recordings, documents and public records. The experiences you hear are the accounts of the people who lived them. Where possible we distinguish personal testimony from expert opinion and verified records. Some names and identifying details have been changed to protect contributors and third parties. Any ongoing legal matters referenced are just that — ongoing; we do not speculate on outcomes, and nothing in this series should be understood as a statement of criminal guilt. When we use the term "Insta Scammer" we are not alleging a criminal conviction. Have you experienced something like this?

  • Unveiling the Architect Ep11
    2026/08/31
    The finale.

    Across ten episodes we followed the people drawn into the community around the online wellness figure known as Liana Shanti; here we step back and ask who she is, and how the pattern worked. Drawing on the public record — court files, business filings, and published reporting — and on cult recovery specialists who lay out the mechanics of coercive influence, this episode traces the shape of the whole story, and ends with the plea of a mother still hoping to hear from her daughter. Where a matter is contested or unproven, the series makes no finding; facts are drawn from the record and attributed to it, and the experts speak in their professional opinion.

    Content note: this episode includes discussion of coercive control, recovered-memory and
    childhood-abuse allegations, and family estrangement. Support resources are below.

  • Out of the Rubble Ep9
    2026/08/31
    Leaving is rarely the end of the story — it’s the start of rebuilding a life while untangling what was real and what wasn’t.

    This episode follows Riley out of the community: the house in Florida, the slow accumulation of small moments that broke the spell, and one of the darkest threads in the series — the teaching that remembering could kill you. Riley’s father disputes the account of abuse, and the two have since reconnected; the series makes no finding on what did or did not happen. Every contributor speaks for themselves, and contested matters are left contested.

    Content note: this episode includes discussion of recovered-memory and childhood-abuse allegations, family estrangement, and suicidal ideation. Support resources are below.

    Sources & credits:
    This episode includes a short audio recording of Liana Shanti, in her own voice, provided to the production and confirmed by former members as her own words, used for the purpose of criticism, comment and review. All other audio is the contributors’ own accounts.

  • Structural Damage Ep7
    2026/08/31
    The aftermath of the fire.

    This episode follows what happened next for Tom and Joanne — the insurance, the fundraiser, the letters, a welfare check, and the public posts that followed — as a rental arrangement built on trust came apart. Where officials have not stated a cause, we say so; where an account is one person’s recollection or estimate, we attribute it plainly; and where an allegation is unproven, we make no finding.

    Content note: this episode includes references to a house fire, significant financial loss, disputed allegations, and family estrangement. Support resources are below.

    Sources & credits:
    This episode draws on the contributors’ own interviews together with court filings and public records. No third-party audio clips are used.
