Emergency Contacts and useful info

How do you know if you have been the victim of a fraud or scam?: 

  • If it sounds too good to be true, it is.
  • If you have won a prize, but haven’t entered that competition, it’s not a prize.
  • If you are asked for money up front to release your win you may not get your win.
  • If you are asked for your bank account, credit card details, online account access or other confidential information, the call is not from your Bank or financial institution.
  • If a caller is more excited than you are or wants to be your best friend they could be a fraudster.
  • If you are told that you must reply to something straight away or the money will be given to someone else, there may be no money.

What to do if you're a victim of a fraud 

  • Call your bank or your financial institution immediately
  • Change your passwords
  • Contact the Gardai to make a report immediately or as soon as possible
