After the announcement of her casting, Mosley was the target of racist attacks from fans who saw her as a replacement for Jennette McCurdy's character from the original. Writer Franchesca Ramsey tweeted in response, "Laci's character Harper isn't replacing Sam. No one could replace Jennette McCurdy or her incredible talent! But it’s both racist as hell & completely unfair to decide that Laci hasn’t earned her role especially since the show isn’t even out yet!!"

### Scam Goddess

In September 2019, Mosley created the podcast *Scam Goddess*, produced by Earwolf, where she discusses historic and modern cons with other comedian guests. The name comes from a moniker given to her by the hosts of The Daily Zeitgeist podcast due to her frequent internet research on scam and fraud cases. Topics covered include the Fyre Festival and Hilaria Baldwin's claims that she is of Spanish descent. The podcast was recommended by Vox and Vulture. Sean Malin of Vulture wrote in positive review, "Mosley is whip-fast with jokes, upstaging and amusing even her funniest guests with zingers." In October 2020, the podcast was picked up for co-production by Conan O'Brien's company Team Coco, alongside Earwolf. Mosley received two Webby Awards and an iHeartRadio Podcast Award for *Scam Goddess*.
