I new 3 Corinthians was an AI fake when it ended with "Greet one another with Hershey's Kisses and all of God's people send you Happy Holiday greetings".

(See 2 Corinthians 13:12-13 for the satire source)

To: Tell It Right

I thought it said “Be sure to drink your Ovaltine?”

I thought it was a fake when the back side of the letter had my lucky numbers on it.

The Apostle to the Gentiles refers to an earlier epistle to the Corinthians in 1 Corinthians 5:9

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

The Lost Letters of Saint Paul, and How They Were Lost

Why, then, were these lost letters lost? The answer to that is quite simple. Paul probably died around 64/65AD. Very shortly afterward, during the early years of the Jewish Revolt against Rome (66-73) savage inter-communal violence broke out across the Levant, and in Egypt. Jews attacked Gentiles and slaughtered them in large numbers. Gentiles did the same to Jews, eradicating their communities and settlements that had lasted for centuries. Indeed, the accounts of these massacres in Josephus’s Jewish War are horrendous to the point of being unreadable. If we look at the places described as marked by the most savage violence, where Jewish communities were extirpated, several of the worst massacres and orgies of destruction occurred in cities mentioned in Acts. Moreover, these almost certainly contained followers of Jesus, who would have retained letters by Paul. Those letters would have been lost when Jewish quarters were burned out. In contrast, no such massacres are known in Corinth, Philippi, Thessaloniki, and the other centers where letters were preserved.
