I did a random Google search this morning because was bored and this site pulled up:

http://eternal-earthbound-pets.com/

Reading it, I knew it was scam but it is the best one I have seen in a long time. It is a site for the ultra-religous nut jobs and old people that are cramming for the final exam. This group claims for a $110.00 USD plus $15.00 USD per extra pet that they will come to your home when the rapture comes and rescue the pets from the home.

From their home page:
"You've committed your life to Jesus. You know you're saved. But when the Rapture comes what's to become of your loving pets who are left behind? Eternal Earth-Bound Pets takes that burden off your mind.

We are a group of dedicated animal lovers, and atheists. Each Eternal Earth-Bound Pet representative is a confirmed atheist, and as such will still be here on Earth after you've received your reward. Our network of animal activists are committed to step in when you step up to Jesus."

The best part of their web site is their FAQ's:

"Q: How do you ensure your representatives won't be Raptured.

A: Actually, we don't ensure it, they do. Each of our representatives has stated to us in writing that they are atheists, do not believe in God / Jesus, and that they have blasphemed in accordance with Mark 3:29, negating any chance of salvation."

It was the best scam that I have seen in the past few years that is actually legal per the Atty General.

loled at the last part of the title.

That is so wrong and yet so funny at the same time...

Theres enough nut jobs to actually do it though. that's the amusing thing. Not that im saying christians are nut jobs lol, don't get me wrong.

Then I'll say it for you. Christians are nutjobs! You're welcome.

I should totally sign up to be one of their representatives.

Genius! I approve.

A perfect scheme. Heard about this on the radio last week, fantastic.

I thought this was going to point to Swoopo.com

I thought this was going to point to miniatures company A, B, or C.

Isn't there a thread about this already?

Aye jeb, started last week by me. Under the title 'money for old rope'. A truly fantastic idea eh? :-)

One of these days, I really need to sit down, and figure out a legal scam like this to do for extra cash. Im all about taking money from people that are too stupid to know any better. My god, what it must of felt like when the creator of that site had that idea pop into his head

Part of me wants to say, "Well that's just stupid." But another part makes me think, "Wait, that's brilliant."

Christians are nutjobs! I'll hop on the bandwagon here

Really.... i can prove it more then that site check this out

I would appreciate it if other members would be so polite as to refrain from referring to Christians as "nutjobs."

Yeah fair one lads, Christians en masse arent, just some are.

You know, mainly the ones in America that think Noah took the dinosaurs on the ark, Sarah Palin is awesome and Fox News is "fair and balanced"

Certainly your average Christian wouldnt fall for this type of malarkey im sure... How many applicants have they had so far?
