Randomly an email comes into my mailbox yahoo or hotmail and informs me that I have won a certain sum of money after their lottery drawing machine. They ask me to fill in my personnal info to a person named prize claiming agent. This person will introduce me to an attorney to whom they will ask me to pay a sum for claiming the prize on my behalf. I would like to know if these kinds of facts are serious or defrauding?
Please post my question and invite people to answer it. Their answers will not only help me but many others who have received these kinds of emails and don't know how to resolve.
Thanks in advance!

Sorry it is a major scam and you are advised to stay away.
You will be asked for a process fee then a release fee then a handling fee and then a transferring fee and the looky here its you that has given all your money away.
MATE DONT DO IT.
