WeWork and Nikola come to mind. Robinhood depending on if you consider purporting yourself to be “stealing from the rich, giving to the poor - Robinhood”, but you actually take orders from Citadel to be fraud. I think a lot of recent IPOs will turn out to be fraud-lite, in which it is shown over the next decade that these companies were pump and dumps that never actually do anything. They look just good enough to garner investment at IPO for initial investors to cash out.

Most any company with ML or AI in their branding, running stupid amounts of CNBC ads and repeating their AI name 30 times during the ad.
