I remember people following Harold Camping's doomsday predictions. They sold their houses, bought RVs, preached that The End is Nigh, etc. The day came and went like any other. He revised the date a couple of times, but of course world didn't end. I just can't believe people are that gullible.
Desperate people are the easiest to sucker. That's why so many scams target people looking for jobs.
