#127 - Business partners and friends Edward Shin and Chris Smith formed a successful business together, 800 Exchange, in 2009. Within months, the company was turning over a massive profit. But Edward and Chris's relationship was tested after Edward and Chris were sued for embezzling money from Edward's previous employer. Just before the lawsuit settled, Chris Smith suddenly disappeared. He cashed out his interest in 800 Exchange and told his family he was leaving to sail around the world. For months, his family received emails from Chris. But after a while, his family started to suspect that Chris might not be the one behind the keyboard.
