IRIS payment system fraud in Greece

Overview

A 31-year-old woman was sentenced by the Volos Three-Member Misdemeanor Court for computer fraud and money laundering involving the IRIS electronic payment service.

In November 2025, the woman contacted a workshop owner claiming she could assist with technical issues regarding the IRIS service. She used a fraudulent hyperlink to access his account in an attempt to steal 30,000 euros. While the victim's bank successfully froze 29,000 euros, the victim lost 1,000 euros. The court sentenced the defendant to two years and six months of imprisonment without suspension, a fine of 1,150 euros, and ordered the return of the stolen 1,000 euros.
