Geocache Description:

This Multi-Cache is inspired by the movie "Catch Me If You Can" This is rated high just because of the driving you will need. Please be careful, some of these area's can be a little difficult. I hope you really enjoy this Multi. This is my first Multi-level geocache. Mainly it was just timing it all just right so you don't run into muggles. Please place everything EXACTLY the way you found it. All these places are located in various parks right here in Derby.


What you will need to do:

Like in the movie  "Catch Me If You Can" there is a criminal committing fraud. Bank and check fraud to get technical. Well in this Multi-level cache you will be playing the role of Carl Hanratty. Carl Hanratty was a FBI agent that had to chase down Frank Abagnale Jr. Frank Abagnale commit Fraud by changing names on checks and changing the amount paid to a larger sum. The FBI caught on to a few of these fraudulent checks and started perusing Frank to apprehend him. Frank left a paper trail on accident. Carl Hanratty found this paper trail and started following. This paper trail led to Franks apprehension in France. Frank did all this before his 19th birthday. He posed as a pilot, a pediatrician, and a lawyer. He posed to be older then he actually was and married a nurse at the hospital he posed as a pediatrician . Her father said, "I'm a lawyer". So trying to make an impression on the girls dad he posed as a lawyer. He took and passed the stated bar test by watching shows of court. Frank married the girl. After his apprehension he spent a few months in a French prison where Carl Hanratty came to transfer him back to the states where he started his crimes. Frank was able to tell if checks were fraud or not so he got put to work at the FBI checking checks for fraud. Now back to the cache. I have placed 4 different "Pieces Of Fraud" in a different park in Derby. To crack this Multi and get the ammo box, you will need to act as Carl Hanratty and chase down Frank(The ammo box). There is various wrapped cammo containers spread out through Derby. So by going along this paper trail that "Frank" left it will lead you to apprehend Frank(Ammo box) Now heres your first found piece of  fraud. In each "Piece Of Fraud" there will be a piece of paper saying where the next piece is. I put some swag in the box and a Travel bug for the lucky FTF detective. Please bring some needle nose pliers, or tweezers, you will need them. Watch for poison ivy, barb wire and thorns. Good luck!!

First Piece Of Fraud:

Your looking for a 17 year old boy named Frank Abagnale. He's accused of check fraud. And you Hanratty have to catch him! He was seen strolling through Oakie Payne Park in Derby Ks. An undercover agent spotted him. He made an attempt at yelling at him to stop. But Frank ran. He ran into a tree where his jacket got stuck. We have his jacket with us here. I need you to see if we can get any clues, maybe he dropped something. Search the area well. Go get'em Hanratty! Look at the "Waypoints" near the bottom of this page for the coordinates. Search anything you find really well!

Second Piece Of Fraud:

AHA!! Frank was seen again. Agent Gates spotted him here hiding in a tree. Just as Gates approached, Frank ran for it. He out ran Gates unfortunately. He got away but I want you to search the area. Go get'em! Remember to search anything you find really well!

Third Piece Of Fraud:

AHA!! Frank was just reported in Hand Park! I need you to get him Carl!!! Sources say that Frank was seen here in Hand park. He was seen hiding from local police in a tree. I need you to go search the area for anything that may have a hint of where he might be. Good luck Carl! Search everything you find really well!

~The Chief~

Fourth Piece Of Fraud:

We got a hit on Abagnale!!! I need you to track down and investigate this piece of fraud!!! Scan Well for clues!!!!!!!!! Be aware of thorns!!!!!

~The Chief~

Franks Final Location:

Frank is blocked from crossing the bridge at Crane Park!! We think he's hiding out near the base of the bridge! The rest of the bridge is surrounded by police officers dunked down behind some trees. Frank knows this. Which is why he is hiding!! Go find his hiding place and apprehend him!!! Go Hanratty!!! And be aware of thorns! We believe the location specified is a tad off. Search about 5 feet south in all the down tree limbs. Perfect place for a young criminal to hide.!
