488: Frank Bourassa | The World’s Greatest Counterfeiter Part One

Frank Bourassa counterfeited and sold $250 million in fake US currency until he was nabbed in an undercover operation. Now he runs a security company and works with the police to catch other counterfeiters.

What We Discuss with Frank Bourassa:

• How someone creates a quarter of a billion dollars in American $20 bills • that not only look • genuine, but feel • genuine even to experts.
