…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

Pretty much every one that goes to Church is being scammed by a church.

At this point we should just rename the community to InsaneSovCits. Not that I don't get a chuckle out of the posts

I am seriously wondering why they ordered eleven copies. Why would you even be able to order more than one?

I mean, yes, this is scam, but still…

Where do you see 11 copies?

XI is the Latin Nummer for the Arabic 11

I read that as x1, as in the only wanted one time. They're not the same height, so I don't think it's Roman numerals.

Same energy over here in germany. People buy id cards stating they are citizens of the „Deutsches Reich“. Of course there are several groups claiming they are an exile government, succesors, etc. and ripping of delusional people. Frankly, no pity from me.

I wish I didn't have a conscience, so I could fleece those people myself and get rich of their stupidity.
