How To Protect Yourself From Church SCAM & Scam Pastors by EZEIGBO1OFIMO: 2:21pm On Mar 08, 2015
Church scam tricks exploit trust and cost their victims
millions of dollars every year, so much so that one
state has named one variety of this type of crime its
number one scam.
Yet by applying some commonsense measures, most of
these con tricks can be avoided — whether you’re a
member of a religious organization or on the receiving
end of a bogus request for help.
In this issue, we highlight the 10 most common types
of religious scams and give you our five golden rules
for avoiding them.

1. The most common adage applies to affinity and
equipment-related church scams — if it seems too
good to be true, it probably is.
2. Never believe someone is who they say they are,
or that their claims are true, without independent
proof.
3. Never wire or donate cash unless you are 100%
sure who the recipient is.
4. Always read the small print of any agreement you
are signing. Discuss it with others — don’t rush.
5. Carefully check out the credentials of any
organization you are dealing with, whether they’re
investment firms or equipment suppliers.
