How to NOT Hire a Con Artist

How can you be certain that new hire isn’t a con artist?

Or that new coworker?

The truth of the matter is: Con Artists are EVERYWHERE these days - hiding in plain sight. And corporate espionage costs companies billions a year.

Johnathan Walton wrote the seminal book about these charismatic charlatans titled, "Anatomy of a Con Artist: The 14 Red Flags to Spot Scammers, Grifters and Thieves," published by Penguin Random House.

Now, Walton travels the world teaching audiences how to identify these sophisticated scammers BEFORE they strike. How to out them. And most importantly, how to stop them in their tracks.

You see, he was scammed out of nearly $100,000 by a professional con artist.

He went to the police and they laughed at me and turned him away.

So Johnathan started his own investigation and got his con artist arrested, charged and convicted of scamming him in Los Angeles.

And then Johnathan got her extradited to the UK after his investigation uncovered 25 victims over there - he was even profiled in the New York Times for doing it!

Johnathan was also featured on ABC’s "The Con" and NBC’s "Access Hollywood" as well as NBC News, BBC News, The Times London, "Dr. Phil" and "The Tamron Hall Show."

Johnathan has since investigated hundreds of con artists and helped many victims all over the world.

In his 60 or 90 minute multimedia presentation, audiences laugh, gasp, and get wise as they learn about the 14 Red Flags con artists wave BEFORE they scam.

His presentation can save your company and your industry millions of dollars by preventing these inveterate and seasoned con artists from infiltrating your organization.
