How to spot a fake banking app

How to spot a fake banking app

We would like to inform you about a scam currently affecting an Irish credit union. Fraudsters are misleading individuals using a counterfeit credit union application.

In this scheme, the scammer poses as a local buyer and instructs sellers to input their IBAN details into the fraudulent app. The scammer then fakes a successful funds transfer, creating the illusion that the transaction has been completed.

Those affected have encountered this scammer through social media marketplaces and various online platforms. We strongly encourage anyone who has experienced this scam to report it to the Gardai.

Please remain cautious of such tactics, and be wary if someone shows you a screenshot of a bank transfer. These fraudulent apps can be purchased online and are specifically designed to imitate legitimate banking applications.

Protect yourself by staying vigilant and aware.
