Did you even have a face 2 face interview? Have you visited the company itself to see if it truly exists?
I wouldn’t send any personal information to them…..I would simply say, when I get there, I will give you the information in person.
Do an internet search on the company information, if it’s a scam usually there will be info of such.
But then again, that’s just me, I’m naturally skepticle.

You are being scammed. The job does not exist, and the telephone number you have been given is what is classed as a mobile redirector number. This means that the phone has been programmed to transfer the call to another phone which could be anywhere in the world, but it would normally be answered by criminals based in West Africa. They will want you to send money to them for something such as a work permit/ flight documents/ visa. If you send any money all you will receive from them is demands for more money.
Any phone number starting anything like 44 70 is a number that is usually used in scams. The 44 country code, which is for the UK, just makes it look as though you are calling the UK when you are not.

This is 100% not genuine.
There have been a number of scams using "Mr. Clark Smith" over the last 18-24 months – the postal address has changed, but there are a number of mistakes in the advert.
If you are in doubt about any of the details, check http://www.abb.com and go to the Ireland page to verify whether or not there is a position being advertised.
Additionally, look out for the contact number – in the UK, numbers beginning with +447* are mobile numbers.
