PHISHING SCAM
Once again, along with many other parishes in the Oakland diocese and beyond, CCOP continues to be targeted by scammers impersonating Fr. Mark via BOTH email and text messages, asking for money, gift cards or simply a response. There were a number of reports today in particular. THESE EMAILS OR TEXTS ARE NOT FROM FR. MARK. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND. If you receive one of these emails, please mark it as spam or simply delete it. If you receive one of these texts, simply delete it. Response only encourages more attacks. You will only receive email from Fr. Mark from his catholicsofpleasanton.org email address. He will not text you directly. Please contact Michael Harmon, mharmon@catholicsofpleasanton.org if you have any questions. |

The Diocese of Oakland has created a site where you can give on-line to any parish in the Diocese, including the Catholic Community of Pleasanton. Giving Made Easy
Many of you have asked if we are still accepting donations via Giving Made Easy (GME). The answer is YES! We primarily offered Tithe.ly since it is quick and easy to use. However, if you are already setup using Giving Made Easy, that's great and we would ask you to continue to support your parish. You can also still signup for Giving Made Easy through our website.
