Unfortunately, bad people are sending out emails and text messages pretending to be Father Stephen and asking for gift cards, etc. Please know that Father Stephen would never ask for these kind of things in this way. If ever in doubt, please call the Parish Center at 201-891-1122.
Anyone who feels that they have been the victim of this type of scam is urged to contact their local police department or report the scam to the New Jersey Cyber Crime Unit at (609) 584-5051, ext. 5664 or online at https://www.njsp.org/division/investigations/cyber-crimes.shtml.
