Catch Me If You Can

Frank W Abagnale, alias Frank Williams, Robert Conrad, Frank Adams, and Robert Monjo, was one of the most daring con men, forgers, imposters, and escape artists in history. In his brief but notorious criminal career, Abagnale donned a pilot's uniform and copiloted a Pan Am jet, masqueraded as the supervising resident of a hospital, practiced law without a license, passed himself off as a college sociology professor, and cashed over $2.5 million in forged checks, all before he was twenty-one. Known by the police as "The Skywayman" Abagnale lived a sumtious life on the lam- until the law caught up with him. Now recognised as a US leading authority on financial foul play...
Abagnale is now one of the world's most respected authorities on counterfeiting and secure documents. For more than 25 years he has worked with the FBI's National Academy, a program that instructs federal law enforcement agencies. He live in the Midwest with his wife and three sons.
It's all been done before I guess..? Only better!!!
