• South Armagh man's €40k social welfare fraud case at Dundalk Circuit Court Social welfare fraud · Co. Louth

  Eamon Corry, a man aged 51 with an address in Crossmaglen, South Armagh, claimed almost €40,000 in social welfare payments in the Republic, including supplementary welfare and jobseeker's allowance, after applying in person at the Department of Social Protection office in Dundalk. He had stopped the claims in April 2023. At an earlier hearing at Dundalk Circuit Court he had €1,200 in court and offered to repay €100 per month, and he later failed to appear in February after a panic attack. At the most recent hearing, reported on 6 May 2026, he admitted he knew the claims were fraudulent, a further €200 was paid, and the case was put back to 22 June for finalisation.
