Another saying is "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink"
Or in context, you can tell people they are being scammed but you can't stop them giving their own money away.

It is not morally correct to think that just because fools are easy to take advantage of and part from their money, that makes it "okay" to scam them.
Scamming is fundamentally wrong and should always be illegal. End of story.
The wrongness and necessary illegality of it is not conditional upon the foolishness/elderlyness/mentally-challengedness of the scam victims.

The fact of the matter is that what these leeches are doing is not illegal, or at least they haven't been charged with anything, the members of this church have been told what their "preacher" is up to, even the preacher admits it to some extent but they are still content to give him their cash. So in this case, and imho, yes they are stupid and yes they probably do deserve it, their families however is another matter.
At least if daddy spends all his money on alcohol you get a beating to show for it, what do they get in this case......
