Tactics Of Crooks
There are plenty of ways to get people to give you money for a “Ministry”. This one which predates the year 2000 used the y2k bug to scare the money out of gullible pockets.
After the year 2000 went by without a hitch (save a few hangovers) these con artists turn to the mayan calendar to scare the bejeesus out of everyone.
I feel sorry for those who get caught in those shenanigans. We have so many other ways to use money to make this world a better place to live in. Sadly these con artists might be too good at what they do to let any of their victims any time to think. Fear is the tool of the devil.
