Re: ATM card skimmed €1,000 in NZ today
Does he already have his visa for Australia? If he does, then the AUD 5000 rule doesn't matter as they only need evidence of it on visa application, not entry. (As far as i can remember) As for getting the money back, he will probably just have to fight with AIB. Make sure they go to the police and see if anyone else (apart from his friends) has complained. If they have, then there should be no problems convincing the bank that he didn't give the pin number to anyone.
