Lots of people with high hopes and greed for riches. Not to mention, we live in a credit card society where most people don’t even hold cash in their hands. Yes, credit cards – now there is a ponzi scheme with legal legs.

I do hope LDS leaders start to nip this one in the bud. Too many members get involved with these on one side or the other. It is a disgrace.

I wondered if members were involved in this! My husband and I were talking about it this morning when we heard the story on the news. I said to him, “The funny thing is that most people who know anything about money can see right through these scams. How in the world do they get enough people to end up with millions of dollars???” Drives me nuts. Good for Tom! He’s a great man.

You hear enough stories of Mormons and other religious groups being suckered by these scams, that’s its nice to hear when a church leader puts the kibosh on it.
