Lottery E-mails and Lottery Scams (26)

Lottery e-mail scams include sending unsolicited (spam) e-mails that say that you've won millions of dollars for a variety of reasons other than the purchase of a lottery ticket.  Generally, these e-mails originate somewhere outside the US, where the criminals can safely scam you, with virtually no chance of getting arrested or prosecuted.  At some point, they will ask you to pay some fee or fees to claim your prize.  Once you are onto their scam, they will disappear and your chance of any type of recovery is essentially none.   We have included several recent examples.
