A parish priest in Grosseto has reported a bogus Easter blessing visit scam urging locals not to leave their doors open at the "unlikely" times announced in the fake announcements posted on homes.
"The phone number on the announcements is not the parish's, and the dates and times indicated are improbable," said the priest of the populous Gorarella district in the southern Tuscancoastal city.
"We urge the quarter's residents not to give credit to those notices, and above all not to leave their doors open.
"Anyone with any doubts can call our parish number".
