Gardaí warn Kilkenny shops over ‘foil bag’ thieves


Cunning thieves are targeting high-end cosmetics and spirits
Gardai have issued a warning to local businesses involved in the selling of high-end cosmetic products and spirits.
A gang is currently travelling the country targeting these stores. They are using foil-lined bags (pictured above) to avoid detection.
A number of other scams are in operation including criminals pretending to be calling from banks and Amazon Prime, looking for people’s bank details. Gardaí are asking people not give account details to anyone over the phone.
