Petty crime

Rates of theft in Ireland are low by global standards. Travelers, however, at are greater risk of being victims of these crimes due to frequenting major Irish tourist attractions, which are magnets for petty criminals. The most dangerous spots for theft and robbery are the downtown areas of popular tourist cities Dublin, Cork, Galway and Belfast, as well as outdoor locations such as the Cliffs of Moher and the Ring of Kerry, a scenic drive around the southwest of Ireland.

At rural locations like these, thieves may also target parked cars. Many visitors hire cars to drive around Ireland, and when they visit lookouts or go hiking, they leave suitcases and valuables inside cars. Thieves can quickly and easily break into their vehicles to fleece them.

In cities, the biggest threat comes from pickpockets. Europe is home to countless gangs of experienced pickpockets who hop around the EU from city to city targeting tourists. If you walk around carrying valuables in a pocket that isn't zipped shut, you're going to be an easy target.

The bottom line – if you have zips on your pockets and Don't leave valuables in sight in your parked car, you can massively reduce your chances of theft and robbery.

Credit card crime

There is at least US $40 million worth of card-related fraud in Ireland each year. More than half of this is what Irish police call “Card Not Present” fraud. That’s where a criminal uses stolen credit card details to make purchases over the internet or phone.

The most common way criminals gain these details is through card skimming, where a small device is attached to an ATM or card reader that records the details of every card that is scanned.

Irish police in recent years have arrested dozens of criminals linked to card skimming, but have warned it remains prevalent. These criminals target ATMs which are vulnerable, like those in the walls of pubs or convenience stores.

The best way to protect against skimming is to use ATMs that are inside banks, making them far harder for criminals to access and tamper with.
