Gardaí have issued a warning after a number of people got text messages claiming to be from Permanent TSB advising of unusual online activity.
The messages contain a link, which will bring customers to a cloned website of the bank and ask for pins and passcodes, as well as other information.
Officers say the information asked for is more than what a bank would seek.
The public is being advised to be wary of these texts and contact their bank directly if they have suspicions about communication.
