Concerns raised with Credit Unions over local phone scams

The Irish League of Credit Unions has issued a warning.

People are being warned about scam callers pretending to be from the credit union.

The Irish League of Credit Unions has issued a warning, saying it would never contact someone by phone, text, or email to ask them to verify their account details.

It says the scam consists of a fraudster sending a text or making a phone call claiming to be from a credit union and informing the recipient their account has been put on hold or locked.
