Unification Church
In the 1990s, thousands of Japanese elderly people claimed to have been defrauded of their life savings by Moon followers' spiritual sales .  Moon's church was the subject of the largest consumer fraud investigation in Japan's history in 1997 and number of subsequent court decisions  awarded hundreds of millions of yen in judgments, including 37.6 million yen ($300,000) to pay two women coerced into donating their assets to the Unification Church.
