He told me he could help me. He sent me some water i was suppose to put under my pillow. When I opened the letter the water packett was empty. He told me to ssend him a seed of 15 dollers. I sent him $20 like an ass and now regreat it. The same day I mailed out the $20 dollers he sent me another letter saying God want you to send a seed of 200 hunderd dollers. I seen a vision and god told me to help you. If you send me this money and obay god you will be blessed with a higher income everymonth. I am so mad. I looked him up on the internet and people say he is a fake. Im mad I mailed him $20 but glad I found out he was a fake before I mailed the $200.00. Did anyone hear of this guy. Can I get him in trouble. Does anyone know about Peter-Popoff

unfortunately you learned your lesson the hard way, which is not nice to see.....maybe write into the broadcasting company voicing your concerns on this man and his con 'act' he performs? Im not sure how the laws work over your way so I cant really offer up much advice.

Yeah, anyone asking for money....

...and anyone claiming to have any supernatural power.

....and anyone who claims to know anything about any gods.

All scam artists.

(and yes, I'm looking at YOU Pope Benedict...you don't fool me with your fancy dress and your pretty house.....and what are you smirking at Ayatollah? you wanna join him in detention?.....)

If you learned the lesson well enough, $20 is actually a small price to pay.

Yes, I can well imagine!

SNIPE, sorry 'bout the distraction.

You were saying you sent $20 bucks to this christian on TV and then you googled his name and found out he was a fraud?

Any reason you did it in that order?

Yep,

Peter Popoff with his "miracle spring water"

Don Stewart, with his "green prosperity handkerchief"

Robert Tilton with his request for "vows to the Lord"

All three play on the BET channel on Sunday evenings.

All three promise miracle healing and sudden wealth if you just send them money.

All three prey on the desperate and disadvantaged.

Why don't honest Christians police their own house?

Because they all sell the same product.

And why they let those Red Cross folks and Greenpeace folks and Amnesty International folks and Shriners and UNICEF get away with asking for money is a mystery, ain't it?

Matter of fact, I went to the grocery the other day and before I got out the door the cashier asked me for money too. Hey...................

And what do you expect Christians to do about these folks, Mesquite? Beat 'em up? Shoot 'em?

Don't tell me there's nobody taking advantage of folks who aren't religious........

Is there anything that you can't find a way to bash Christians about, Mesquite? Is absolutely everything their fault?

You're a sad case.

Money can't buy God? A couple I know was denied a church wedding because they conceived out of wedlock. A few years later, they asked a priest if they couldn't be reinstated and have a church ceremony. He replied, "I don't know. You owe God a lot of money first."

Edgar,

That's not buying God. That's the church fleecing someone.
