Frank W. Abagnale is one of the world's most
respected authorities on forgery, embezzlement
and secure documents. For over 30 years he
has worked with, advised and consulted with
hundreds of financial institutions, corporations
and government agencies around the world.
Mr. Abagnale's rare blend of knowledge and
expertise began more than 40 years ago when
he was known as one of the world's most
famous confidence men. This was depicted
most graphically in his best-selling book,
Catch Me If You Can, a film of which was also
made, directed by Steven Spielberg with
Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks. Between
the ages of 16 and 21, he successfully
posed as an airline pilot, an attorney, a college
professor and a pediatrician, in addition to
cashing $2.5 million in fraudulent checks
in every state and 26 foreign countries.
Apprehended by the French police when he
was 21 years old, he served time in the French,
Swedish and U. S. prison systems. After five
years he was released on the condition that
he would help the federal government, without
remuneration, by teaching and assisting federal
law enforcement agencies.
Mr. Abagnale has now been associated with the
FBI for over 30 years. More than 14,000 financial institutions,
corporations and law enforcement agencies use his fraud prevention
programs. In 1998 he was selected as a distinguished member of
"Pinnacle 400" by CNN Financial News - a select group of 400 people
chosen on the basis of great accomplishment and success in their
fields. In 2004 Mr. Abagnale was selected as the spokesperson for
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) and the
National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA). He has also written
numerous articles and books including The Art of the Steal,
The Real U Guide to Identity Theft and Stealing Your
Life.
