There is an Internet scam from India that is geared towards Christian men and women and ministries of which believers want to be informed. The scam is called the "Letter-Pad-Evangelist" and it is made up of persons who pretend to be Pastors but they are frauds as a substitute. They have no church, orphanage, ministry or spiritual firm. Their ministry is a fraud present only on letter pad (letter head) and photos, and numerous youthful adult men are carrying out this in sections of India.
