ad-verse possession

A legal term for when a self-proclaimed "servant of The Great One" mails out Good-Book-passage-laced flyers touting his beliefs, then uses said Bible-blabbing junk-mail to lawfully take possession of one or more dwellings or other valuable objects, particularly those owned by "blindly faithful" people who never interfere with anything that they naively view as being "of divine origin".

I always just write "REFUSED --- RETURN TO SENDER" on any ecclesiastical ephemera I receive, to hopefully avoid any future problems with attempts at ad-verse possession.
