The son of the owner of the printing press business, Frank Abagnale, entered the crime world at a young age with a credit card and testing programs. He later imitated other white professionals working in the white space, made an overseas career, and was arrested at the age of 21 by French police. Abagnale was eventually hired by the FBI as a consultant and started his own company, educating companies, financial institutions and government agencies on how to detect and catch fraud. Part of his life was the title of the famous 2002 film Catch Me If You Can.
