So, been seeing a commercial for "Miracle Spring Water". Apparently, God gives you money if you chug this!!
The clincher? Peddled by a hombre called "Peter Popoff"!!!
Waaay too much ammunition there!! Ah, bloody Christians. They are such fun!! Or is that funny...

Popoff has been around a long time, but he had to lay low for a while after his fraudulent but very lucrative "faith healing" gig was exposed. He drew big crowds, and his wife would "work the crowds," chatting people up. Then she'd write down stuff on 3 x 5 cards. When the "service" began, Popoff would come out, and start saying amazing things about people he had never met, based on what God was telling him. Well, turns out "god" was his wife, reading the info to him over a radio frequency, and Popoff had a tiny receiver in his ear. Atheist magician James Randi figured out what was going on, and even found the frequency and recorded the wife giving Popoff info. Popoff went bankrupt the next year, but now he's back with the water gig. Can't keep a good man down!

@Kattywampus69 I was being doubly sarcastic, because he’s not even a good con man! Still, he seems to be making a living off this stuff, despite the fact that the water tastes awful. Don’t ask me how I know.

Peter Popoff, Robert Tilton, and Joel Osteen should plan a world tour of salvation together and call it Three Assholes and a Savior.

Sucker born every minute

Now a days it seems more like two.

If people are ignorant enough to give to this con, then I should start my own "ministry". I've got a creek just full of magic water that just needs to be bottled and sold.

Let this be the one commandment
"God needs Ca$h"

Why not. In the worst Star Trek of ALL time, god needed a space ship.

I had a couple stoner friends years ago that would stay up late, see his commercials and call, asking for anything they could get from the dude. They got all kinds of BS water, prayer shawl and other random stuff for free. So, maybe they took it too him a little bit? Not enough though.

No, miracle water doesn't work that way, according to Popoff. He sends you the miracle water, absolutely free of charge, and you decide how much you wish to be blessed. You choose an appropriate amount of money which "the lord" will return to you one hundred fold. Next you sprinkle miracle water on the money and pray over it. Finally you send that money back to Peter Popoff's ministry and wait to be blessed by god.

It's not a scam because, the magic water is free.😰

@Kattywampus69 the guy is a complete scumbag.

Popoff's been around for decades. He is only one of many ripping off delusional Christians.

He was exposed decades ago, and christians still get conned.
