I have just got done investigating one of the most insidious and malicious scams I have seen to date on the internet. The scammers are the owners of www.christianprayercenter.com. It is a website that advertises heavily using Google AdWords. They say that millions of Christian will pray for you worldwide. They also claim to have miracle prayer requests answered.
The only reason I stumbled upon this scam is because of a person reporting them to me on Christian Faithbook. They clicked on the ad in order to place a prayer request. After signing up, and filling out all the forms to place their ad, they were asked for a donation. Now I do not have a problem with people donating to a website. That is not the issue. The issue is that they did not give an option for not giving a donation and when they tried to post their prayer request without giving a donation, the prayer request was denied! So what you have is people charging you for prayer!
I decided to go to this website and offer my prayer request. I verified that they would not take a prayer request without a donation. Needless to say I am frosted! Shame on these people for taking advantage of hurting people. Shame on Google for allowing this type of site to advertise on Adwords.
Proverbs 1:19
So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain; It takes away the life of its owners.
If you don’t think they are preying instead of praying, just take a look at a few of the quotes on www.christianprayercenter.com
“Today I received a check from the insurance company handling my workers comp claim for reimbursement of mileage for driving to Dr. appts, pharmacy and physical therapy. Came about 3 days early and was more than enough to pay the rent this week.” -Michael F.
“I wanted to thank you all for all the prayers you have sent up to our savior. My husband was very sick. I took him in to have surgery. Soon afterwards they came back into the room loudly saying we don’t operate on people who have nothing wrong. He was healed, praise God!” -Debra D.
“When I got in from work this evening, I received a letter from IRS: Certificate of Release of Federal Tax Lien. The letter stated that over 10,000 dollars of back taxes has been satisfied. Thank you for all your prayers and I look forward to successfully sharing the job I will be landing next Tuesday.” -Joyce C.
These people are selling prayer! This is abominable!
Do not be fooled by these wolves in sheeps clothing out to fleece you.
Blessings to you and we will pray for you for free at Christian Faithbook!
