Letter: Give the last word to a career criminal

Stefan Wagstyl writes (FT Money, December 18) that “richer people are more likely to fall prey to fraudsters”. A famous, but possibly apocryphal story is that Willie Sutton, an American career criminal of the 1930s, was asked by reporter Mitch Ohnstad why he robbed banks. According to Ohnstad, he replied: “Because that’s where the money is.” Plus ça change.
