dbp:text
  • Abagnale is indeed a convicted confidence artist. But he is finding willing believers as he promotes and invents a more varied criminal past. (en)
  • That damn Abagnale uses my name all over the place, but I've never even met the guy. (en)
  • The man is not an imposter, he is a liar. (en)
  • He had a key to our front door, it was never recovered. We changed the lock. I fed him. I cooked. I don't trust people as much anymore. (en)
  • I was in one of the largest maximum-security federal prisons for two weeks when I impersonated a prison inspector and walked out, right past the machine guns and the guards. (en)
  • If anybody tells you that they got an assignment directly from the FBI director, right from the head of the FBI, you know for a fact it's bullshit. It doesn't happen that way. (en)
  • This is the first we've heard of this, and we would have heard of or at least remember[ed] it if it had happened. You don't forget $2.5 million in bad checks. I'd say this guy is as phony as a $3 bill. (en)
  • So despite claiming to be a sociology professor in at least three books, two solely written by Abagnale himself, and an on-camera claim following the movie, it appears Abagnale as a BYU professor is mostly or entirely just another real fake. (en)
  • "Well, then, I am the world's greatest con man. As one gentleman said to me, 'If you didn't do all those things, and you've made all this money you've made in advances, royalties, and speaking engagements, then you are in fact the world's greatest con man. (en)
