Did I get it right?
Hal Lindsay, the Millerites (twice), and maybe Oral Roberts (tho we cant be sure--he said the Lord would take him home if he didn't raise some ridiculous amount of millions many years ago, and enough people donated to reach the goal and keep Oral safely on earth. So on that one, we can only speculate 😉

Interestingly you quote religious organisations rather than people, which in many ways these days is more relevant with all the very obviously erroneous money-grabbing, mind-bending, charlatans there are.

People are indeed often like sheep; they either follow the "money" evangelists hoping the prosperity vibe will rub off onto them, or they join massive wealthy organisations looking for safety in numbers, absorbing all the doctrine and error that has been accumulated over the decades, rather than looking for the Author of Life himself.

It's difficult to decide which of the two sources of false prophesy is the more troubling.
