Have you received an email from "DR GEORGE . M. OMERA" at "IRNL - Euromillions" telling you that "your
email address won in the second category" or something similar, and to
contact "BRITISH AIRWAYS COURIER COMPANY at bacs_dispatch@yahoo.co.uk" to collect your winnings? It is a
scam. No legitimate, legal lottery notifies winners via email (see footnote) The scammers may
change the names and details, but it is still a scam!
Below is the example of the fake email scam (the email is the scam, not any persons or companies named in the email) claiming to
be from the "IRNL - Euromillions".
