Catch Me If You Can: The True Story of a Real Fake
By: Stan Redding, Frank W. Abagnale, Jr
Publisher: Broadway; Reprint edition
ISBN: 0767905385
Format: HTML

When this true-crime story first appeared in 1980, it made the New York Times bestseller list within weeks. Two decades later, it’s being rereleased in conjunction with a film version produced by DreamWorks (Starring: Leonadro DiCaprio & Tom Hanks, Directed by: Steven Spielberg). In the space of five years, Frank Abagnale passed $2.5 million in fraudulent checks in every state and 26 foreign countries. He did it by pioneering implausible and brazen scams, such as impersonating a Pan Am pilot (puddle jumping around the world in the pit, even taking over the controls). He also played the role of a pediatrician and faked his way into the position of temporary resident supervisor at a hospital in Georgia. Posing as a lawyer, he conned his way into a position in a state attorney general’s office, and he taught a semester of college-level sociology with a purloined degree from Columbia University.
The movie is available as a torrent download if required.
