The Catch Him if You Can podcast series tells the story of the victims of a Canadian con artist. For over 20 years, Marcel André Vautour got away with conning numerous people. He wooed, cajoled, and deceived many into parting with their life savings and worse. This seven-part series shares personal stories of those who fell for his deception.

Emilia King and Maggie Reid are the narrators, researchers, and producers of Catch Him if You Can. They are the cofounders of Pink Moon Studio, which produces the podcast. The idea for the series came after Emilia found an article about a group of women trying to get a con man captured. The public labeled the women everything from gullible to bitter. Emilia felt outraged.

Before releasing the podcast, Emilia and Maggie carried out almost two years of research. They spoke to victims, fraud experts, psychologists, and police officers. The podcast contains segments of ongoing investigations by victims and law enforcement.

Catch Him if You Can is more than the story of Marcel Vautour. It's also the story of his victims and the people trying to capture him. He's been scamming his way through the world for many years under different names. Sometimes he's Mark, Marc, March, Martin, Andre, or Marcel.

From interviews with victims, bits and pieces of Marcel's story emerge in the series. Described as a skillful liar who often mingles lies with some truths, he has victims on every continent. He left his mark in Vietnam, the Czech Republic, and the US, as well as Canada. Listeners hear stories of foreclosures, bankruptcies, and trauma due to his treachery.

Marcel was into almost any scam, from romance to medical fraud. The podcast tells a fascinating but tragic story of a man with many names and his many targets. True crime lovers may find Catch Him if You Can to be a compelling podcast.
