Searching for Tips: Know of Any Religious Leaders Committing Extortion?

This is an odd request. Trinity Foundation investigators are looking for tips.

Often religious leaders are accused of immoral actions which are not necessarily illegal. It is not a crime to waste millions of dollars on ministry-owned jets or massive parsonages.

However, we are also interested in documenting criminal actions, especially financial fraud and extortion. If a pastor or televangelist convinced you to give based on a false promise of financial blessings which you never received, let us know about it.

If you are aware of a pastor or ministry leader using threats/intimidation to obtain donations, contact us. For example, has a pastor told you that God would punish you if you didn’t give him a donation?

If you know about a megachurch taking over other churches through loan sharking techniques (charging large amounts of interest which could no longer be repaid), blackmail or bribery, please report it.
