Several legal cases were pending, culminating in January 2019, when a class-action lawsuit led by the Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson was filed against the multi-level marketing Company, LulaRoe. This one alleged that the founders of LulaRoe made false and deceptive representations regarding their business, inspiring thousands of optimistic entrepreneurs to invest their money into the lucrative venture-- only to find themselves drowning in debt, mortgaging their homes, and depleting their life savings.&nbsp; Though many had not yet heard of LulaRoe, this lawsuit would soon topple the billion-dollar enterprise into one of the most well-known scandals in America. Listen to Episode 54 of The Great Fail to hear the story.
