When the Banking and Payments Federation of Ireland reports it, does it report, for example, that Pearse Doherty is the victim of an approved push payment scam and what his address is? Do the gardaí have the details? If I do not report it myself but have phoned the bank to say €5,000 or €500 is missing from the bank, and the bank has then reported it, do the gardaí have the details to come to knock on my door and know that I am a victim? I would say that most people are not getting that knock on the door.
