Cheers lads! Actually got a phone call from America just now! The guy was just talking up why I should go ahead with it, 1 in 100 chance of winning a green card etc. He quoted $300 for my name on the list for 4 years. Told him I won't pay yet, I just said I needed more time to think, he didnt sound too pleased and asked why I was backtracking, do I not want this opportunity. He sounded a bit too desperate, and I just hung up.... this is the link that appeared to me. Straight to spam it'll go.

Scamming feckers.
Expect them to KEEP bombarding you with emails every few weeks for the next year or so making the same claim.Unsubscribing doesnt work it seems.
Funnily enough got another phonecall from them and more e-mails. They won't go away easily.
Generally...if it looks to good to be true it is too good to be true....
Ray Foley was having a bit of craic off one of those scammers on his show recently...pretty funny.
