Korean professor fools 5,000

This story (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/asia_pacific/10472269.stm) from the BBC doesn't seem to have been covered by many people whose blogs I read here in Korea. Again we have another Korean science scam. Here a professor claimed that he could make tap water into holy water has been charged with fraud. The article states that he fooled over five thousand people making over $1.3million by claiming to be able to cure illnesses with the water. Not funny for those who got sucked in by this one and another unfortunate story for Korean science.
