Two people have been arrested at Dublin Airport by officers investigating money-making scams.

A joint intelligence-led operation was carried out at the airport on Friday by Gardaí from the extradition section in Garda National Economic Crime Bureau (GNECB) and others.

This was part of an operation targeting a Romanian organised crime group involved in cyber frauds worldwide.

This includes invoice re-direct, phishing, vishing and money laundering in Ireland.

A Romanian man, aged 34, was arrested on foot of a European Arrest Warrant.

While a 22-year-old Romanian woman was arrested for theft and fraud offences.

A sum of money, some debit credits obtained through the opening of bank accounts using false identities, encrypted phones and a laptop were seized.

The woman is being held under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act at Ballymun Garda station.

It is expected the man will appear in the High Court later.
