The pastor and his wife defrauded believers of $3.4 million, promising blessings in exchange for investing in their cryptocurrency
The pastor convinced members of his church to invest in crypto that he created by “God’s instruction”
He said that anyone who bought it would receive a blessing and live better. The faithful suckers believed him and brought him their money.
The American clergyman and his wife raised $3.4 million. They spent this money on themselves:
- They renovated their house — according to the pastor, it was God’s will;
- They traveled, bought plane tickets, and stayed in hotels;
- They went to expensive stores and bought designer clothes.
Now the scammer couple faces up to 100 years in prison for fraud.
