Do People Still Fall For This Kind Of Scam? by BaesDiary: 9:50am On Apr 21, 2017
I got this from my inbox. This got me wondering if people still fall for scam like this....

"Child of God i don't know you but God knows you well, i was led by the spirit of the Lord to go through your profile and pray for you, as i was praying for you i was taking to the realm of the spirit to see things around you i see favour from God and i see more spiritual attacks the enemies are working on holding your favour from God. And the enemies want to kill you by accident. The Lord said i should tell you to sow a seed of Favour and Breakthrough to the lives of those children in Eghosa Sarah Motherless Home in Kebbi state before the end of three(3) days why i guild you through with prayers because the Lord want to put your enemies to shame and also manifest his promises in the life of your family and you if only you believe in him and do what he commands, you will testify to the Glory of God. Call the M.D in charge of the Orphanage home on 08186895450 God bless you"

Lol! Sow a seed?? Plant a Garden nko??grin

Why won't he pray for you without "sowing a seed" or it's the "seed" that will ensure the efficacy of the prayers?

This one is worse than Bet9ja. Yimu.

How Does Crowd1 Work?

The best thing you can do for yourself and your generation this period of lockdown is to invest in a legitimate business that will pay you in hard currency. CROWD1 is the leading MLM company now and it gives you an opportunity to own shares in form of owner's right.

Ugh…. Yes they do but it’s still a scam… I wish I could upload my entire interaction with these people. Anyone right now there on mufti menks YouTube page…. What they did was they copied his photo and use a very similar name to his… so when people get this reply they think it’s actually the content creator replying to them… and because this channel is mostly Muslims and has to do with God they take advantage of that just like they do to Christians or any other religious group of people. I just told them that the bank has directed me that this is a scam as well as the Nigerian police and they told me the bank is lying and that the children have no food to eat for dinner that I must donate right away. They will literally say anything to pull at your heartstrings but people follow your gut not your heart. This is absolute rubbish and they really do not give a crap about who they take from or how they get the money. God didn’t tell them anything… and that is the biggest load of rubbish they like to spew.

Re: Do People Still Fall For This Kind Of Scam? by glory777glory: 6:29am On Dec 02, 2021
I received the exact same message 'i saw a woman in the spirit real with a mirror, blocking your blessings and with intent to destroy'

The reason these work- is because in some cases it's true. When I happened to read this- I was sitting across from a woman who I personally have seen use a mirror to manipulate, who I suspect is an enemy..

therefore I was WOWED.

But I'm no idiot

Many times the enemy simply 'connects' to their network of demons to get the scoop in our lives...it's no revelation from God....all they did is pick up the phone and get a report sort of to say....

The part where u have to send money...leaves a distinct sour taste in ones mouth....if you are Godly and from God....then give me the info free and leave it to me to send or not send.


first I need to ask God, then I go from there..

thankfully I did some research and found many others like yourselves who received the same exact message.

**I wanted to add one more important VERY IMPORTANT THING***

in the 1st quarter of 2019 The Good Lord poured out Holy spirit into my life like never before...during this time I learned so much. Which is definitely need to know information:

1: if you have bought a mirror from anyone, yard sale, thrift store, garage sale, or given one... make sure you pray over it and ask God to bless it. Use oil anointed oil on it.

2- If you bring home a mirror from anywhere and do not immediately hang it, do not leave it faceforward at the edge of your bed, resting quarters, always turn the face toward the wall and not by the bed.

3- go around and bless every single mirror in your home.


Witches, satanists, and the like...definitely do use mirrors- in various ways. Like a portal, as well as to see things, to give a mirror to someone who has no idea and they take home and guess what? they can monitor you- hear you-, I don't know what else...and.i don't care...what I do know is be safe- Bless the mirrors. The enemy uses all kinds of tools, tricks, objects, to manipulate and gain ground in out lives. When we don't know...we simply don't. Until someone shares it and blesses us with that knowledge. Please pass the blessing.

Thank you for confirming my suspicion. I replied on YouTube as per the attached.


(Mr. Dankwara is the new Chief of Police in Edo. )

And i mean it sincerely, that's why i added my picture to this profile. I haven't been to Nigeria yet, but i used to ship a lot of stuff there. Nigerian Customs is peachy; i can only imagine what their CP is like!
