Possible Eircom Email Scam?

Hi Folks,

I received the following email last night on my home computer- its most definately a scam and one that you SHOULD NOT reply to if you get it.

How do I know this? well , apart from the standard mailing rules whereby no serious company would EVER ask a client for personal details such as passwords etc by email, I actually have no eircom accounts whatsoever- nada! nothing! not even a phone!

so my advice is to ignore this email or better still report it to eircom.

Thanks.

Roz
