  • U.S. energy giant Enron collapsed in 2001 after an accounting and fraud scandal. The resurrected company's promo video and website appear to be an elaborate joke.

The article from KHOU 11 discusses the resurgence of Enron-related scams on the internet, where fraudsters are using the name of the now-defunct energy company to deceive people. These scams typically involve fake investment opportunities or claims that Enron is making a comeback, often through emails or social media posts promising high returns. The article verifies that Enron has not returned to the internet or any other business operations since its bankruptcy in 2001, and any such claims are fraudulent. It warns readers to be cautious of any investment opportunities linked to Enron, as they are designed to steal personal information or money. The Better Business Bureau and other fact-checking organizations have confirmed that these are indeed scams, emphasizing that Enron remains out of business and its assets were sold off long ago.
