Gardaí are warning the public to be cautious of a scam pretending to be Revenue. The Garda National Economic Crime Bureau is warning the public of a new scam call which is pretending to be Revenue. Victims are being called by a ‘051’ phone number- similar to a Waterford landline number. An Garda Síochána, Revenue, nor any Financial Institution will never call you and ask for your PPS number or bank account details. Never give away personal data to anyone or give assess to your bank account to unknown or untrusted people.
