CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- July 15, 2003 -- NuTech Solutions, Inc., a premier provider of advanced predictive analytics and profit optimization software products for Global 1000 companies, announced today that Frank Abagnale, world-renowned authority on the subjects of forgery, embezzlement and secure documents, has joined the company as Board Advisor on Fraud Detection.
