Court ‘totally fed up’ with young people giving their bank details

A Dublin Circuit Criminal Court judge has warned that the court is “totally fed up” with young people who give their bank account details to third parties using “stupidity as a shield”, reports Jessica Magee and Eimear Dodd.

Judge Martin Nolan made the comments on Friday while sentencing four men in their twenties for various offences related to money laundering after €121,000 was stolen from a Dublin solicitors’ firm through invoice redirect fraud, also known as business email compromise.
