In 1925, Victor Lustig pulled off the ultimate hustle—he sold the Eiffel Tower. Not once, but twice. And guess what? He never owned it. With smooth charm and a forged government title, Lustig convinced two wealthy businessmen they could buy France’s iconic landmark for scrap. Bold, right?
The first victim, André Poisson, eager for a big break, even offered a bribe to seal the deal. Lustig took the cash, disappeared, and the scam went unnoticed. But Lustig wasn’t done. He came back, tried the same scheme again, but this time the buyer got suspicious and reported him. By then, Lustig was long gone, fleeing to the U.S. with pockets full of stolen money and leaving behind a still-standing Eiffel Tower.
Victor Lustig’s story is proof that boldness and wit can create legends—even if the scam was fiction. After all, how many people can say they sold the Eiffel Tower twice without ever owning it? 😎 #CryptoLegends #BoldMoves #TelegramCEO #CPI_BTC_Watch #Write2Earn!
