I'd ...Thanks for that fascinating explanation Bill. I'd assumed it was a mix of religion and simple attempts to con money out of the unsuspecting, but the picture you paint, with individual project plans, is of something far more organised that I could have imagined. And yet, you are completely right about Korea's networked nature and it all sounds so entirely plausible. Yes, I imagine these groups are very successful.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15349691823513127693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268789363253190247.post-87969343383061299022008-02-10T15:58:00.000+09:002008-02-10T15:58:00.000+09:00Hey there Mike.A new phenomena in Korea is fishin...Hey there Mike.<BR/><BR/>A new phenomena in Korea is fishing for people. A hodge podge of groups -- almost cultic in nature -- are trying to worm themselves into people's lives under various pretenses. The purpose is to obtain information about social status, money, numbers of children, vulnerabilities and how connected one is to the community. Often the information is put into data banks where other people you will never meet begin stealth projects to part your money from you. Korea is completely networked with organized groups expert at worming their way into your life and extracting money out of your bank account. They have project plans for victims that last over months. These groups are highly successful. It usually starts with a smiling ajumma ringing your door bell. Once she gets her foot in your door, your life will never be the same. It's best to keep that door shut.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
