Public urged to be vigilant of fraud

THE PUBLIC is being urged to fight finance fraud that is “ruining people’s self respect and lives”.

Speaking at the launch of a comprehensive guide to tackling the rising problem, Assistant Garda Commissioner Michael Feehan yesterday urged people to play a role in preventing fraud.

“Each and every day, fraudsters by their dishonest actions ruin people’s self respect and lives by deceiving them through the activities this guide describes,” he said.
