Problem is that they don’t keep it to themselves. They use that misleading title as a way to lure Jews to abandon their own faith without understanding that this is what they are doing. Nothing wrong with Christians, but when they set out to deceive they are as evil and duplicitous as any other fraudster.

I don't think they use a "misleading title." They are openly followers of Jesus, which you would find out in the first ten minutes of speaking with them. It's not as if they are putting up a false front in order to trick Jews into embracing Christianity. Some Jews object to the "messianic Jews" appellation, but that is THEIR problem.

“Problem is that they don’t keep it to themselves.”

Nor should they.

“They use that misleading title”

They believe Jesus is Messiah. TO them it is not misleading in any way. It is their truthful belief. They are correct.

“...as a way to lure Jews to abandon their own faith without understanding that this is what they are doing.”

Again, they believe Messiah is the fulfillment of Jewish faith. They are correct. They identify Jesus as Messiah. They are correct.

“Nothing wrong with Christians, but when they set out to deceive they are as evil and duplicitous as any other fraudster.”

They do not “set out to deceive”. That is your opinion, apparently. If you have facts to demonstrate objectively that they intended to deceive, post them and let’s take a look together.

I support their right to practice their religious beliefs, just as I support your right to reject those same beliefs, if you wish.

I’m pretty sure they make it clear that they’re confessing Jesus Christ. Though, it’s only bigotry to suggest that a Jew ceases to be a Jew when he does that.
