DELETE IT!

Answer 3

A scam.

Answer 4

People have been doing scams like this for quite awhile. Any emails that you get, you can check out to see whether they are true or scams. I like to use Snopes.com to see the latest in email fraudulancy.

Answer 5

It's spam! I've been getting A LOT of those, especially from South Africa. The one I got this morning, asked for my bank account #.

Answer 6

If you haven't entered it, then it is a scam.  This is the first time I have seen one about the Irish lottery, but anything you receive like this is a scam and if you reply to it then you will end up losing money.

Answer 7

friend, it's a variation on a nigerian scam. Many nigerians have relatives/friends living abroad, esp. in the U.K., & the ones in the UK serve to extend the reach of the scams that used to be traceable to nigeria.

The US gov't (state dept I think) has HALF of their office devoted ONLY to scams from that one little African country !

Don't even reply with the stern lecture that person deserves -- it will only confirm that your e-mail address is active, & he'll get his kicks by passing your e-mail address on the a bazillion other scammers.

(although it's okay to pray for him.  God can kick butt.)
