Scam emails: Greetings in the Name of Our Lord Jesus

Scam Business Proposals
Greetings in the Name of Our Lord Jesus Scam

Scams perpetrated by  self-proclaimed religious people are in the increase.  Keep in mind, that just because someone claims in an email (or any other form) to be a "good, honest, faithful servant of the Lord" does not mean that they ARE! (In fact, you could probably make a good case that they more they claim it, the less likely they are!)

This is simply a ploy to get your confidence in trusting them (hence, the name "con-men").

The interesting thing about this particular scam email, is the gibberishy nature of the text.  Read through the long, run-on, unpunctuated sentences and see if you can figure out what the author means... we cant! But we're certain that if you keep corresponding with this criminal long enough, he'll be asking for money!

Also not the low resolution photos attached, presumably of the scammer and his obese wife... Perhaps they need the money to enter a weight-loss center.


Dear Brother .
