We have those here in the US, but usually not connected to religion. More often it's related to insurance, investment, and crypto scams masquerading as legitimate businesses. Part of the library plan includes hosting financial literacy programs so people can hopefully learn to spot common forms of financial fraud. Megachurches are suspicious mainly because they funnel money into the pockets of the pastor. If your preacher drives a nicer car than anyone in the congregation, something is sketchy. But it's not usually in the form of those bug fraud one-and-done schemes. It's a perverse long-term wealth siphon draining the pockets of people who truly believe they are tithing to God while the pastor pays off a Mercedes.
