Skinny Keem revealed his audacious journey into making a staggering $100,000 weekly from a stolen car operation. Coupling entrepreneurial acumen with a gritty street background, Keem started his venture by partnering with an African buyer to send stolen vehicles overseas, primarily to countries with lenient customs laws regarding imported cars. Initially, he earned $700 per car, but with strategic growth, he established a network of 30 people in Philadelphia, each generating significant revenue by scaling operations and increasing individual sale prices to $10,000.
Keem's team rapidly expanded, creating a web of vehicle supply that connected to buyers globally, particularly in Africa. At the pinnacle of his illicit success, Keem was negotiating six-figure deals and amassing up to $1 million. Despite this wealth, Keem kept a low profile, choosing a modest lifestyle over ostentation. However, the financial crisis of 2008 and increased law enforcement scrutiny put pressure on the operation, leading to its eventual collapse and Keem's complex but short-lived evasion from authorities.
