The UK lotto has told me that I won a lump sum of money, but I am unable to collect it unless I pay for documents so I can recieve it. I did some research on lotto scams and they came up. I want them to pay for what they are doing, and since they are still contacting me, I think with a bit of help, we can catch them.

Below are the three emails i have recieved. I have not given them a dime of my money, but they do have a lot of my personal information, such as a photo, where i live, drivers licence, but they do not have my social security number.
