The same reason for why people fall for any other scam. Shysters pray upon the desperate, the gullible, and/or the idiotic.

Same reason people donate to twitch streamers.

As a christian, it boggles my mind why people would dish out cash to televangelist.

But the I remember a dude or girl playing a vidya game can make millions.
Why?
Cause people like them, or the community or something like that.

I hate to say it but I think people will pay for goodness, truth etc. but there is a problem with whether the person is good and truthful off camera.

I think it is more or less people pay to hear messages they agree with.

Like, there is tons of churches that you can go to for free.
Yet people rather pay a televangelist.

Because they like what he says and want to support him so he can keep saying the same things.

Same reason why anyone would give ninja money.
Dude is already making millions.
Why pay ninja $5?
Cause they like his message or whatever.

Same reason you might donate to someone going around for a cause you agree with.
