Excellent documentary on Enron (1hr 40 min 2005).

Has it all, rouge traders making and losing fortunes, faked company accounts and shell companies to hide loses, out-in-out frauds making pots of money.

Here's an interesting scam they pulled. In a newly deregulated California they bought up all the electric supply companies then throttled back the supply, waited for the inevitable power blackouts and the resulting huge hike in electric prices, and then restarted the supply.

Sound familiar ??
