By the 1990s there were fewer than 10,000 members of the Klan.  Many so-called "chapters" or "hate groups," as measured by the [[Southern Poverty Law Center]]'s newsletter ''Klanwatch'', consisted of a single individual.  The threat emanating from the Klan was often exaggerated to serve as a fundraising tool for anti-racist watchdog organizations.  Chat rooms and discussion boards were set up by anti-racist watchdog groups in the hopes of baiting in a young person to identify who may be susceptible to extremist recruiting.  These chat rooms and discussion groups also served the dual purpose of making the Klan threat  appear larger than it actually was for fundraising purposes.
