I was messaged this on Facebook today..

“Greetings in the name of the Most High. I am Grace Jessica, an anointed spiritual member of the Catholic Church of God in Melbourne. Through divine revelation, I have seen a spiritual concern surrounding your name, Benjamin Dale. There is a force at work that could diminish your value and hinder your progress in life. I urge you to respond to this message so I can guide you on what steps to take to overcome these challenges and excel in all that you do. May the grace of God be with you.”

Then after chatting for half an hour or so I was asked by her if I could go to her church where they would baptise me and give me ointment to put on my forehead every night before bed to keep away "the evil spirits"

One catch. It was going to cost me $500..

Do alot of religious scams like this go on?

Or was she being genuine?

I never thought, nor do I believe you can buy your way out of hell...
