Three held in €450k defrauding of Spanish and Irish companies

Gardaí investigating the defrauding of a Spanish and an Irish company have arrested three people and recovered the bulk of the stolen €450,000.

In the first operation, the Garda National Economic Crime Bureau saved around 90% of the €300,000 taken from a company in Spain by two foreigners in Dublin.

These individuals are suspected of being part of an “organised criminal network” involved in international fraud and money laundering.
