    …How do these people not realise they’re being scammed? It’s… blatant!

    It could only be more obvious if the documents were being held by a Nigerian Prince who wanted to send $1 million along with them! I feel like I could walk up to one of these fools and tell them, “I am actively scamming you, but if you trust me with a few dollars, magical fairies will come and restore you to your prime and grant you and those you love eternal youth, life, and wealth,” and they’d give me everything they could get their hands on!

    It’s almost hard to not pity them at this point…

      The Facebook groups have thousands of people. I think the parallels between these people and Qanon are pretty significant.

      The best (worst?) part about this… that address is a church

      They are being scammed by a church, but is a time honored tradition
