Book excerpt: I stole one million from four banks. Three years later I was caught, tried, and sentenced to 18 months in a federal prison camp where I ended up serving about 14 months. Now doing any prison time is no fun, but if you have to serve prison time a federal prison camp is the place to do it. Martha Stewart did it and so did I. There are no fences around the camp, and there are runners available who will go outside and pick up anything you want. Every weekend there was plenty of beer, pizza, and chicken at the camp. While I was locked up I met four other guys who had stolen between one million and five million dollars, and each had received a sentence between one to two years. One of my camp mates stole a million by using credit cards, one counterfeited over two million, one cashed over two million in fake checks, one made a million by using store coupons, and one made over five million by inflating home mortgages. The federal government doesn't push for long sentences for white collar crimes as it does for other crimes. As my camp mates and I became acquainted we discussed how we stole the money and how, with a few simple changes, we would have never been caught. This is valuable knowledge you need before you make the decision to steal. How to Steal a Million Dollars and Get Away With It! tells our stories; how we stole the money and the mistakes we made to get caught. The book also tells how we would do things differently now to steal the money and to get away without getting caught. This book goes into detail on how they counterfeited money, received the bogus credit cards, how they got and cashed the fake checks. The book details exactly how one person made the million using grocery store coupons, and how another guy inflated the mortgages on properties. It also includes a chapter on how to make and get fake ID's that will pass police and FBI checks.
