Frank Abagnale never stopped lying.


Watched some of his speeches and Q&A on youtube. Very sharp and articulate for a 70 year old guy. What is unnerving to me is that he had never stopped lying even when doing so is of little benefit to him.

He claimed he worked for the FBI for 42 years flying to DC every Monday and then back to Charleston SC where he and his wife lived every Thurs evening. There is no record of him ever working for the FBI and they do not hire ex felons.

His claim he was only arrested one time in France. His claims he only ripped off big businesses and never small businesses or individuals.

When talking about his wife and 3 sons he seems truthful but cannot seem to stop lying when talking about his past. Between his bullshit and the movie it is hard to know what to believe.
