Yep .. One might say they got a bit carried away in pushing for so many registrations
Those dang quotas
It's like the old Soviet Union where factory managers listed their plant's "output" and it was always huge---then they had a real set of books that showed the non-existent production. But EVERY organization has "names" like this. For years, our history department had 150 "majors" who just didn't exist. We just never purged the rolls. Likewise, I've been a member of churches that had huge "memberships," but had tiny congregations. Some of it is fraud, some is just poor purging techniques by the state and county officers.
Despite what everyone here thinks, FRAUD AIN'T EASY.
