A law enforcement officer named Lt. Dennis Marlock
put together a terrific page about confidence crime.

His page is called FraudTech.Org


I happened upon his page, as I was looking for
histories of successful propsecution of confidence crimes,
having had years of my life stolen by what one law
enforcement officer privately described to me as:

"The Largest Organized Crime Syndicate
Operating in the State of Florida At This Time"

He was referring to L Ron Hubbard's operations in Florida.

Lt Dennis Marlock suggests that we teach our kids to ask these two questions when faced with a possible "CON"fidence offer: (paraphrased)

1)How will my decision affect my life?

2)How much does the other guy have to gain?

I'm Arnie Lerma and i'm new on this board and I've been on the net since 93.. and run a site that helps current scientologists get OUT of scientology, and helps journalists and public stay out of scientology's traps.

I don't suppose you've heard of xenu?

Welcome to the site. Scientology has often baffled the hell out of me. It's origins are traced to a science-fiction writer. That alone should raise some doubt, but this mindless flock continues to follow the scarecrow shepard.
