Fake Father Mike accounts on social media

Fr. Mike will NEVER:

  • Direct message or chat through Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, etc.
  • Direct message you asking for money, donations, or prayer requests
  • Ask you to message him on a different platform
  • Ask for personal information (phone number, address, social security number...)
  • Request to be your friend via social media if he does not personally know you.

When you're online, ALWAYS:

  • Stick to trusted, official channels like the Ascension Facebook Groups
  • Only send money through official websites like AscensionPress.com or BulldogCatholic.org
  • Avoid following a link someone you don't know sent you
  • If you have questions, contact our friendly customer support team by emailing support@ascensionpress.com or calling us. We will help you.
  • Trust your gut! If something seems fishy, it's probably a scam.

If you come across any suspicious accounts, please report and block them. If you come across suspected AI videos, please reach out to support@ascensionpress.com with a link to the video or account so that we can take additional steps to remove these videos.


And let's also pray for the individuals behind these fake accounts, that they may turn to a path of honesty and truth.
