Ever get a "prayer rug" in the mail? [View all]

I just got one, "loaned" to me by Saint Matthew's Church.

I'm supposed to send it back to them with a donation.
If I do that all sorts of goodies, financial and otherwise will be showered on me.

Even money this "church" is just another scam.
(Looks it up)

Yup, it's a scam.
