In a post on her Instagram story, Laura said women who enjoy the proceeds of fraud should also be held accountable. “Wives of Yahoo men should also be arrested when these men are arrested… It’s for better or worse, baby girl. Go carry ya Birkin in jail,” she wrote.
Laura is known for her outspoken takes on relationships. Last year, she advised women to stay with cheating husbands and confront them verbally instead of leaving.

She also recently shared how she almost fell victim to fraud when a man attempted to use a fake bank alert to buy goods from her store. Calling the act “demonic,” she told the fraudster to target the government instead, saying they owed him, not her.
