James Freedman stole the identity of someone in the audience at every performance of his sell-out show! But the City of London Police didn’t arrest him, instead they asked for his help. He is now the first UK Fraud Prevention Ambassador.
Now direct from London’s West End, private performances of this ground-breaking show are available. Especially to organisations looking for something new and exciting for conferences and training days.
Based on a life-time spent studying criminals, conmen and fraudsters, ‘Man of Steal’ delivers much more than improved fraud resilience. An inspiring performer, James demonstrates how to spot opportunities, build your confidence, think big and reduce risk. Along the way he’ll show you just how easily he can pick your pocket. He can also show how easy it is to hack your phone and access your bank account.
