A New Round of SCAMMING started today. Scammers posing as Fr. Mario are sending emails saying
"Hello! Are you less busy at the moment? I got a request for you to manage discreetly. I’m occupied to answer calls so kindly respond back via mail. Thanks

and ending with a scripture quote: 
Sent from my mail...
“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
- Hebrews 11:6 

THIS IS A SCAM.
Do not reply to the email.
Priests/Churches would never make such bogus appeals to the parish community!
