  • Woman's €4,352 phishing scam under investigation by gardaí Fraud (payment fraud / phishing scam)

    Carolyn Ramsay, a woman in her 70s, lost €4,352 in a phishing scam in July 2026 after a text message led her to transfer money from her Bank of Ireland savings account to what she believed was her own Revolut account. The account was fake, and the money was gone. Ramsay reported the incident to gardaí, but no one has been arrested or charged, and neither bank has offered to reimburse her. She suspects her details were obtained through a Facebook ad for a cleaning service, and one scammer may have used AI voice-altering software to fake an accent on the initial phone call.
