Lottery - Donation
Consultant.com appears to be used by online scammers. I have seen a lot of email scams like the one below, which ask recipients to contact someone at consultant.com in order to receive a so-called donation or lottery prize. Therefore, anyone who receives emails like the one below, are asked not to follow the instructions in them.
