25 years ago, I filed the story from Cleveland, Ohio. We profiled the scam artist Frank Abagnale. If you don't know his name, you may remember the movie Catch Me If You Can that starred Leonardo DiCaprio. The movie was based on Abagnale's story, a career which landed him in prison and then on the consulting circuit.

Frank talks about some of his tricks in the story. #fraudpreventionmonth
