Elderly priests, nuns, and even an
archbishop were scammed for money by a gang posing as local
agency heads across Italy and saying the religious had been
given more money than they were entitled to.
The unnamed archbishop, 76, runs a convent at Oristano in
Sardinia.
The other victims were aged between 64 and 84, police said.
The scam was run in Turin, Palermo, Bergamo, Rome and Foggia.
