A 23-year-old man from Andria in
Puglia was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of posing as a priest
and defrauding at least seven priests in Puglia, Abruzzo and
Basilicata by getting them to give him money for fake charitable
causes.
Vincenzo Pastore, was already facing prison time for similar
alleged crimes, police said.
The man was caught after a priest in Canosa di Puglia reported
him for bilking him out of money he had claimed he would give to
a single mother.
