I didn't try to explore the site at all but what i did see seemed inappropriate. I mean I could understand if it was a church sponsored site that had a little donation box for a specific purpose but for a site to just open with "pay us and we'll forgive you" seems completely wrong.
And what or who exactly are the donations benefiting anyway? Probably I would know this if I had wasted a little more time there but I didn't want to. My first thought though was that based on that first page for all we know it is a cover for some terrorist group! OK so that's probably a little extreme but it's a valid point about vague sites asking for donations.
I hope no one falls for this site...And I think it is very sad that desperate people will be taken by this site.

You couldn't have found out more information because they don't let you get past the first page without filling out your egold account information AND password!!! It's sad that people steal but to do it in that manner is horrible!

That IS horrible! They would be able to take every last bit out of a person's account until the person discovered they were being scammed and changed their password. I hope that site gets shut down before too many innocent people fall victim to it.

Yes and no.
No it is no inappropriate simply because it says "god" and has to do with anything related to religion, but it is ebcause you are paying to "redeem your sins."
No on can redeem their sins with money. Now THAT is inapproptiate.

Not a whole lot there to explain it is there? I wonder just how many people donate to this what do you call it. You can't call it fraud because there isn't any thing asking for money for any thing spacifick. Just a man with his arms out and a place to donate. well there are all kinds and a sucker is born every minuate

No, Deebomb, it is definately fraud. If you go past the first page they ask for your account number and password. They are stealing right in front of peoples eyes...

I don't think this is a appropriate site and i think it is a scam site because no site in the net would ever give for receiving and that too for free. I visited this site and according to me this is a scam site.

It's definitely not appropriate and kind of blasphemy.
Terrible really.

That is messed up. The worst part is not that they want you to pay money but that they confused a whole bunch of people with the picture of God but it actually says, "GOLD Bless us" so they are intentionally trying to screw a bunch of people out of money. I hope that you reported them or that someone reports them as scammers. There is nothing to say where that money is going and you know it isn't going to a church because there is no mention of God whatsoever on that site.
Then they go on to ask for your e-gold account number AND password!!! I cannot believe a site like that is allowed up anywhere. They are obviously trying to steal money from peoples accounts. To give your account number and password- they would surely take everything that one might have in there!

That's freaking hilarious! I wonder if anyone takes it seriously? I was a little shocked until I noticed it said gold bless us. Though it can be construed as sacrilige, I think it's just dumb as hell.
Blessed Be
