I have been receiving a lot of e-mails stating that I have been randomly selected to receive lottery winnings in the British lottery in the United Kingdom.

I know that this is not true because I receive about 2 or 3 different e-mails per day stating that I've won the British lottery and that I should contact them. I believe that this is a big scam because the only way that they'll release the amount that has been won is if you send them money to do so.

Here is a copy of one of the e-mails.
