Significantly bigger. They are not getting that money back from the bank if the culprit has moved it on. The Garda receives approximately 1,000 reports per month or 10,000 to 12,000 per year. Is each of those cases investigated? Does An Garda knock on the victims' doors and question them? I am genuinely trying to figure this out. I know if I reported to An Garda Síochána tomorrow morning that someone burgled my house, An Garda Síochána would call me and ask me to give a statement or gardaí would call to the house. When the bank tells An Garda Síochána that someone burgled my bank account through a fraudulent method, what happens? Are there 10,000 or 12,000 investigations? Are there 10,000 or 12,000 statements? Is this done at an individual victim level?
