Bob Minton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Minton)
I first came across Bob on the usenet ARS group ~ Alt.religion.scientology
That was back in the days when I operated as a skeptic particularly concerned about religious cults and fake faith healers and scam artists while also posting about history and how it is twisted by some. That also had me posting a lot on " The Irish Question" in soc.culture.irish
I later moved on to Holocaust deniers, and to the neoconservative whitewashing or Iraq's history and inventing fake histories of "islamofacism"
Anyway Bob at the time sponsored an essay competition. $10,000 to whomsoever would write the best essay about Scientology which he dubbed a “Literati Contest” Eventually won by Joe Cisar with “Doing Hard Time on Planet Earth”

well worth a read. You might notice a lot of psychology in common with money scams and frauds.
On top of that one could claim Bob actually helped bail out a country which is currently in the top ten in the world in terms of population and top 20 in terms of economy.
