Fr. Mike is warning all parishioners that an email account bearing his name is requesting funds. This is an email scam and should be reported. Reports can be made to the Federal Trade Commission at: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt

The email account is from a fake account using frmikeosullivan@gmail.com. The body of the email reads:
"How are you? I need a favor from you, please email me back as soon as possible."

Once there is a reply, the email makes the following request or a similar request:
"Good to hear from you. I need to get an iTunes gift card of $200($100 denominations) for a friend going through cancer, but I can't do this now because I'm currently traveling. Can you get it from any store around you now? I'll pay back as soon as I get back.
Blessings."

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL.
Report to the FTC.
Thank you - St. Stephen Catholic Church Webmaster
