Donors Sue Kabbalah Centre Claiming Fraud

The Forward reports that on Nov. 27, a suit was filed in Los Angeles County (California) Superior Court against the Kabbalah Centre by two sets of plaintiffs alleging fraud and misuse of hundreds of thousands of dollars they gave to the charity. Plaintiffs claim they were told their donations would go toward a new Kabbalah Centre building in San Diego and for a children’s charity, but the building was never built and the charity ceased operations.  The controversial Kabbalah Center has attracted well known Hollywood celebrities as followers.
