Peter George Popoff (born July 2, 1946) is a German-born American televangelist, charlatan,[1] debunked clairvoyant, and faith healer. He was exposed in 1986 by James Randi for using a concealed earpiece to receive radio messages from his wife, who gave him the names, addresses, and ailments of audience members during Popoff-led religious services. Popoff falsely claimed God revealed this information to him so that Popoff could cure them through faith healing.[2]
He went bankrupt the next year, but made a comeback in the late 1990s. Beginning in the mid-2000s, Popoff bought TV time to promote "Miracle Spring Water" on late-night infomercials, and referred to himself as a prophet.[3][4] "Miracle Spring Water" promotions are still running on TV channels in the United States and Canada in 2024. The promotions depict individual testimonials regarding their own financial gains, attributing the “miracle” to Popoff’s spring water.
