Summer Holiday Scams Alert
from Waterford News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Summer holiday scams are on the rise, with fraudsters using near-identical fake websites and social media ads to lure victims with unbelievable deals—especially last-minute “cancellation” offers. Once you send money via bank transfer, the site disappears, leaving you stranded. Authorities warn to never trust deals that seem too good to be true or pressure you to pay fast. Always go straight to official travel sites, use ScamChecker.ie to verify links, and never share card details over unsecured Wi-Fi. If you’re targeted, contact your bank immediately and report to Gardaí. Stay vigilant—your dream vacation shouldn’t turn into a nightmare.
