The Galway woman received a link to fill out her personal details after what looked like an outstanding Electric Ireland bill
Alice Coyle recalled the "clever" Revolut scam where cyber frauds stole the large sum through a fake Electric Ireland text, Dublin Live reports.
She noted that the bill was for an apartment she manages with guests in it and she didn't want them to be without light or heat. Minutes later she received a call from someone purporting to be "Andrew from Revolut". He told her someone had tried to take €5,000 from her account and warned her that she had been scammed.
