Gardaí are continuing to warn members of the public of phone call scams.
It's after one woman in Kilkenny fell victim to a scam 'doing the rounds again' after she was charged following a missed call from a UK +44 number.
The scam catches out a phone user when they return a missed call.
Each call made to the number charges €25 to their billing account.

Gardaí say the woman in Kilkenny called back, not once but twice, and the trap subsequently cost her €50.
Gardaí are reminding people to 'please be vigilant.'
