Email scam: Platinum Lottery International, South African Lottery, FIFA

Please contact me, I need more information I hope this is truth or I going to contact my lawyer. I said this because right now I have a big situation, and don't need this jokes in my life I really need money to resolve the situation that I have thank and God Bless you.contact me to my e-mail.

WHY WOULD ANYONE DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT! THESE PEOPLE ARE CRUEL AND DESERVE TO ROT IN HELL. THIS IS NOT FUNNY TO PEOPLE WHO COULD ACTUALLY DESPERATELY NEED THIS MONEY. I HOPE THE PEOPLE THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS SCAM ARE FOUND AND GET PUNISHED FOR BUILDING UP PEOPLE'S DREAMS AND THEN TEARING THEM DOWN. PEOPLE THAT DO THESE KINDS OF THINGS TO MAKE MONEY OFF OF A POOR INNOCENT PERSON ARE NOTHING MORE THAN THE SCUM OFF OF MY SHOE. I MEAN COME ON ARE YOU SERIOUS?! WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO!! WHY DO YOU THINK IT IS OKAY FOR YOU TO STEAL SOMEONE ELSE'S HARD EARNED MONEY, GET A DAMN JOB AND MAKE YOUR OWN LIKE THE REST OF US!!

I just recieved this e-mail tonight and started to get excited. I am in a rough financial situation right now and for a few minutes I was excited.
But after a background search on this company, I have found their offerings to be fraudulent and erronious. I believe at this point that we should band together and find a lawyer whos is willing to support our cause and finding and take on these criminals for what they have already promised us.
Here is what I recieved;
