Criminals are targeting victims to use bank accounts.
Midlands Gardaí are warning people that money muling is happening in towns and villages across the region.
Criminals are targeting victims with offers of 'easy money,' requests to use bank accounts, and fake online job opportunities.
Authorities are warning that anyone who allows their account to be used becomes involved in criminal activity, risking prosecution and long-term financial damage.
Communities are being urged to talk openly about the issue, as increased awareness is the strongest defence against the growing threat.
