Serial entrepreneur is synonymous with scammer and fraud. Most people who refer to themselves as "serial entrepreneurs" have in reality had a long career in pulling scams and frauds, usually on the internet, and usually involving various activities spread out around multiple aliases, fake identities and shell company structures. Usually involves spam, scams, fake dating sites, fake porn sites, banging credit cards with unauthorized charges, malware, spyware, adware, ransomware and other nefarious scams. When someone tells you they are a "serial entrepreneur", you should tightly clutch your wallet and run away as fast as you can.
