A fake page of the Primate of the UOC, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry, has appeared on the Facebook social network.

The unknowns who created the page made a spelling mistake even in its title, misspelling the word "Beatitude". Otherwise, the authors are trying to style the page as a real account of the Primate of the UOC, but in the comments they often lapse into outright provocations and blasphemy.

Despite the fact that the page is obviously fake, there are about 300 accounts on the list of its "friends", including believers of the UOC.

The UOJ wrote that all pages on social networks created on behalf of the Primate of the UOC are fake.
