Barry Minkow
CEO
Fraud Discovery Institute

Minkow
  • Think Like a Fraudster

Barry Minkow made headlines for being the youngest person in United States business history to take a company public through an S-1 registration statement before he was 21 years old. However, his company, ZZZZ Best Co., Inc. (which at one time had a $300 million dollar public stock evaluation) was built on fraud and deceit. He amassed over $20 million in loans from 15 different banks, including three investment banks and several private individuals – all for a company whose actual revenues were 90% less than what they reported and who never earned a profit in the five years ZZZZ Best Co., Inc. was in business (October 1982 to July 1987).

Unlike most white-collar criminals, Barry Minkow did not receive a slap on the wrist and an 18-month stay at a golf course prison camp for his crimes. Quite the contrary… Mr. Minkow served more time in custody than Michael Milken, Nick Lesson and Leona Helmsley combined. He served his sentence in maximum and medium security facilities and his cellmate was serving time for murder. As a result of this long prison stay, no one is better equipped to talk about the consequences of compromise than Barry Minkow. His incarceration time totaled seven years and four months (January 1988 to April 1995).

Since his release from prison, Mr. Minkow has traveled the country speaking to law enforcement agencies like the FBI, public accounting firms, the Institute of Internal Auditors, private business, and even the Pentagon. Mr. Minkow also earned a Masters of Divinity Degree from Liberty University and serves as the senior pastor of Community Bible Church in San Diego, California (March 1997 to present). For the last 12 years, Mr. Minkow has made monthly restitution payments to the victims of the ZZZZ Best fraud. He has written two books (proceeds went to the victims of the ZZZZ Best fraud), hosted a national radio show on the Business News Network for four years, and is a frequent guest on many television shows.

Barry Minkow is an executive and co-founder of the Fraud Discovery Institute, a licensed private investigating company that uses ex-convicts alongside seasoned auditors to prevent and detect ongoing white-collar fraud (CA P.I. License number 24817). Mr. Minkow is also a consultant and trainer to the FBI and other law enforcement agencies, specializing in identifying fraud at the highest levels that the authorities are not aware of, and stopping the crime.  His energetic, dynamic speaking style, that was once used to charm millions out of investors, is like no other speaker of our time.

Since September 2003 Mr. Minkow has made national headlines in such media as The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Associated Press, Dow Jones, Time Magazine, U.S. News & World Report and Los Angeles Times by uncovering over twenty major fraud schemes to the tune of 1.8 billion dollars. Mr. Minkow speaks to executives and investors alike about the dangers of corporate fraud and the techniques criminals use to deceive victims. As an expert on fraud, he has appeared on national television networks including FOX News, FOX Business, CNN and CNBC.

Amazing Face Reading

Fulfer
  • Face Reading

This session will provide participants with an accurate and immediate assessment tool of each person they meet. Anger, stress, deception, confusion and wariness are just a few characteristics that can be seen immediately on a person's face. However , this session will also provide a deeper insight into each person's special gifts and challenges, i.e. detail-oriented perfectionist vs. planning committee visionary. This too creates an empathic connection between management and employees.

  • Improve your negotiating, hiring and selling skills
  • Increase your ability to communicate
  • Gain insight into unique personality traits
  • Identify character strengths and challenges

Mac Fulfer practiced law in Fort Worth, Texas for nearly 22 years, since earning his Doctorate of Jurisprudence from the University of Texas in 1975. Initially, Mr. Fulfer became interested in the practice of face reading for the purpose of jury selection. Since then, he has researched and developed these skills and presented the ideas in workshops across the country.

His workshops are in great demand from lawyers, educational institutions, and other venues - any group that has an interest in understanding other people better. As a presenter, Mr. Fulfer relies on his background, personal experience, wisdom and expertise in face reading to provide participants with information and experience that will enhance their communication skills.
