    I'm not an Eir customer but I've received a phishing email from noreply@eir.ie that I thought you should know about. 

    The body of the email is:

    Dear Customer,

    We experienced an overnight nationwide outage that impacted our broadband customers from approximately 1:30am to 3:00am. The cause of this issue is currently unknown and remains under investigation.

    As a security measure some of your information need to be updated before you can continue with our services please login to my eir and follow the instruction to update your account.

    Thank you for your patience during this time and apologies for the inconvenience.
    eir care
