How do you know this con man is a Mormon? Sounds like a basic bad apple leeching off his family. My point is that though there are many sandbirds in the high country now, this is historically a cohesive community that knows each other. I'm guessing as I have noticed in small communities in NM and Kansas, everyone knows what is happening twenty miles away, ten minutes before it happens.
Certainly his behavior is suspicious. I never heard of soliciting people for "guarantor" service, in fact the only guarantors I've heard of are for bail, loans, and people who otherwise could be a financial burden. When someone from Europe came to visit me, CBP called me up and said I had to be his guarantor. I said how do I do that, they said make a notarized statement that you will be responsible for any charges he incurs. So fine, I did, he carried this paper around faithfully and nothing more ever came of it.
