DEVOTEES of the Black Nazarene are being warned against the emergence of an online religious store using the name of the Quiapo Church without any authority.
In a social media post, the Quiapo Church warned devotees against being duped by a Facebook account using the name “Black Nazarene Supporter” that is selling blessed Black Nazarene medallions.
“A reminder to devotees that the Quiapo Church has no ‘religious store’ or any religious items being sold or offered,” said Quiapo Church.
“Be careful and vigilant over the spread of a fake account using the name of the Quiapo Church,” it added.
The fake account offers a golden medallion bearing the iconic image of the Black Nazarene, claiming the said medallion has been blessed in the Vatican. — Gerard Naval
