"United Kingdom ATM Lottery" Scam

There is no "United Kingdom ATM Lottery", therefore, recipients of email messages like the one below, which claim that they are winners in such a lottery or promotion should not follow the instructions in them. They should instead, delete the fake email messages. The fake email messages are being sent by lottery scammers to trick their potential victims into sending them their personal information and money, by claiming that they need to do so in order to receive their so-called lottery prizes from the "United Kingdom ATM Lottery".

Persons who have already sent their personal information or who have already responded to the fake email message (see below), are asked to be careful next time or contact the police, because the information that they have sent will be used by lottery scammers in an attempt to trick them into sending money or more information, may even be used to steal their identities.
