St. Joseph’s hit again by email scam

St. Joseph’s Church in Stratford has been hit for the third time by an email scam.

Father Dick Bester says this time it’s different, the scammers are still posing as him, but this time they ask for a favour.  The last two times the fraudsters have asked for donations of gift cards.  In an interview with MyStratfordNow.com Father Bester says people who have received the email are asked for an unspecified favour and are given a return email address that is not his.

Bester says he does not want his parishioners to be taken advantage of as the past two times this has happened some of them lost money.

He also adds he would never ask for a favour by email.

The incident has been reported to Stratford Police Service.
