In all cases where the victim has been robbed as a result of fraud, is there an investigation when the Garda is notified by the banks, and are the victims in all cases contacted by the Garda? I ask because many people are victims of fraud online, have lost thousands of euro and have never been contacted by the Garda. That is my understanding.
