Looking for more shows/movies like HBO's McMillions

Post date: 2020-02-22 05:16:04

My partner and I have been loving the nuggets out of HBO's documentary about the years-long rigging of the McDonalds Monopoly game, and I'm looking for more shows/movies that scratch the same itch.

The criteria I'm looking for here:

1) White collar crime - con artists, financial scams, coverups, etc at the center
2) Said crimes primarily exploit or target rich/powerful people or large corporations
3) Outright fun or at worst tragicomic
4) Justice Is Served - white collar criminals & rich people get punished; the "little people" make it out alive or even triumph. (The latter is more important than the former; I don't mind if one rich asshole makes a fortune off another)
5) Bonus points if it's based on a true story or an outright documentary

In fiction, think The Informant! - the Wolf of Wall Street isn't ideal but gives you an idea of what's still "in bounds."

Conversely, I'm trying to actively avoid anything about, say, modern MLMs, even if they might be otherwise interesting. (If it helps, I also really hate 'cringe' comedy; I would pay huge amounts of money rather than watch a single episode of Curb your Enthusiasm.)
