Frank Abagnale reveals the methods used by the world's most skillful con artists to steal billions of dollars each year from unsuspecting Americans-and teaches five simple rules that will help us protect our money.
A former professional impostor and the author of the bestselling memoir, Catch Me If You Can, as well as The Art of the Steal and Stealing Your Life, Frank Abagnale is one of the world's most respected authorities on the subjects of fraud, forgery, and cyber security. A world-renowned consultant for more than four decades, he lectures at the FBI's Academy and field offices. More than 14,000 financial institutions, corporations, and law enforcement agencies use his fraud prevention programs. He consults with major corporate clients such as AARP, Experian, Intuit, and LexisNexis.
“They say you can’t con a con man. But what if you’re not a con
man? Frank Abagnale once was, and now he’s on the other side,
helping law enforcement and regular citizens spot the newest cons
out there. Nobody can explain how to avoid the current epidemic of
financial fraud as well Frank Abagnale. He is the ultimate
authority. If you value your financial security, listen to this
man.”
--William Bratton, former Police Commissioner, NYPD and LAPD
“For years, Frank Abagnale has been my first call in the event of
any scam. His on-target, insightful advice has helped me and
my audience protect itself. I'm so glad he's finally put this
important information into a book we all can -- and should --
read.”
--Jean Chatzky, Host of the HerMoney Podcast, Today Show financial
editor, AARP financial ambassador
"A must-own for every American to arm themselves against the
fastest growing crimes in our nation. Frank is a Jedi Master, and
all of us in law enforcement are grateful students. Young or old,
rich or not, whatever your background, Frank will empower you to
protect yourself and your loved ones."
--Sean D. Reyes, Attorney General of the State of Utah
“Well written and thought provoking! This great book offers
practical, sound advice on how to avoid getting scammed in many
areas of your life, from identity theft to IRS scams to bank
account fraud. With so many scams prevalent in today's high
technology world, everyone should read this book — even those
individuals who strongly believe they are not likely to ever be
scammed.”
--Ernie J. Zelinski, author of How to Retire Happy, Wild, and
Free
"Scam Me If You Can is a timely, profoundly useful book about
how to take action against identity theft scams. Only someone with
Abagnale's unique background could precisely lay out a blueprint
for recognizing and mitigating these insidious crimes, including
both real life scenarios and hands-on solutions."
--Brian L. Stafford, Director, United States Secret Service

“In spite of his unusual beginning--or more likely because of
it--Frank Abagnale’s abilities to teach us how to avoid fraud are
second to none. He’s been there, he’s done that, so if you want to
know how the criminals will come at you, and how to protect
yourself from them, buy this book.”
--John Miller, Former Assistant Director for Public Affairs, FBI
