Could this actually be Oral Roberts trying another blackmail attempt on folks?

A joke huh. Well, General Woundwort and I don't think it's very funny. Those guys don't want to piss off the General.

You'll be happy to know that clicking the "Donate" button brings you to Pay Pals site with the message:
This recipient is currently unable to receive money.

So this asshole is no longer able to get scam $$.

I think that's actually really funny. A lot like the bonsai kitten thing.

It was a joke from the start, Mark.

The 'Balance:' figure which purports to showcase the amount already extorted (located near the bottom of the site's main page in a section labeled 'Premium Account Overview') is a fixed graphic, not a counter. It is periodically edited to increase the number displayed so as to maintain the appearance that folks actually are chipping in to preserve Toby's life.
