Irish Lottery.net - Irish Lotto - Ivy Sanchez-Online Coordinator - Barrister James Gibson ripoff they are scammers asking for upfront fees of $700 to receive your winnings Dublin Ireland
This Irish Lottery scam email looks so good and sophisticated that I bought the lie for 3 days because they sent me to an official website that looks for real, saying that I won the Feb. 4th,2006 draw matching all 6 numbers. They said my email address was attached to a winning number ticket. My hope went way up and then my dreams were instantly dashed when I found out that they were using the authentic Irish Lotto's website, but the website says that scammers are using the real Irish lotto's names and web address. They ask for $700 US so you can collect over 2 million US or !,989,000.00 British pounds in one email and euros in another. A official courier service sends documents to you to pick your payment option- wire transfer- OR by check. (They even quote laws that state a person can't deduct the fees from the winnings, but the fees must be collected first!) I found out just in time not to write them a check, and boy do I feel humiliated and STUPID and depressed. However, I wish I had realized this sooner before I gave them my telephone# and address.
