The Software Forgery Episode: Let's Do This, The First Software Forgeries, Altair 8800, Pre-Order or Vaporware, The Richard Garriott Scam, Stickers and Wiped Disks, Falling Apart, Grading and Quality, Tokens of Capital, Heading Forward, Fake Historical Promotion, Keep Going. I don't mention the name of the software, but it's Akalabeth: World of Doom. First sold in 1979 as a limited baggie software before being sold by California Pacific Computer Company, before being remixed from scratch and turned into what became Ultima. For the story of an amazing fraud, look up World Power Systems: https://medium.com/@madmedic11671/forgotten-fraud-world-power-systems-e11320aa681d
