I recieved a chain of emails from this “Irish Lottery” it obviously seemed to good to be true so I called the phone number and a man with an Mid-Eastern Accent (no irish accent)answered the phone when I asked who he was he stalled and then said his name was the name I recieved on my email. I could hear what sounded like a call center in the background. Definately a scam…no lottery here!
