Some of the people promoting these scams are ones I got to 'know' online and after stepping back and seeing it from different prospective, I see this happening. Okay so you are a religious person (truthfully professing the love and faith of your God), now you meet up with other people seemingly doing the same thing. Except there is a catch, these people profess Christianity through song and images and present themselves as worthy religious people and many times have themselves convinced. With this portrayal and gaining the confidence of many others, they try out every new scheme that comes along and toss the line out to their 'friends' who take the bait "oh, just invest $5 - it is worth the try and you could make $1,000s". So the 'friends' bite the bait and send in their little bit of money, feeling a little guilty if they don't help this kind Christian friend and just maybe they would make some money in the meantime. You and I KNOW this is not going to happen! Their 'friend' has sent out many such requests, made a few dollars and jumped off that bandwagon onto a new in a few days (weeks if the scheme is going okay and they are getting more money from their family and friends). You don't make a dime because you don't have time for this cr*p and furthermore you are not going to try and scam your own family and friends.

There was a time I thought these people were innocent or maybe just ignorant that what they were doing was criminal but having watched the same thing happen for many years now, I realize they know exactly what they are doing! I am saying these things because I know some people out there still read what I write and I am telling you to wise up and look closely at how many times you have been taken in by these same people you have called a friend all these years. How much money have you wasted on all the promises riches from these people? Have you seen them get rich?? Of course not! They have made a few dollars here and there but I would suspect they have spent hard-earned family cash on a dream while it could have put food on the table.

Dreams are good but false dreams are like smoke they rise and vanish.

Many of them have left their old stomping grounds of adland dot com - Scamland and joined the more productive world of Facebook and other social media but they still have their roots in the place that brought them together.
