[Resolved]  UK National Lottery Headquarters — I am being scammed for money

I have been intimated vide my email id that, I won a prize of 850,000.00 pounds sterlings on 6.11.07.against ticket No. [protected] and my Identification No. UKNL/OWN/9876.
Again I was informedd that my cheque for 850,000 Pound,winning certificate etc. handed over to courier company for transmission to me provided I make payment 808 USD as their handling charges.
In this connection i would say that, I am not in a position to confirm about the Prize whether actually I own any Prize or I am facing some frauds.
I have contacted some officials of said lottery deptt by using E.mail ID- [protected]@yahoo.it,but still I am not sure on my Prize.
Kindly help me in this regard.Actually I am ready to make payment of handling charges but if the winning certificate/cheque will not be honoured in India ,then my position will be precarious and there will be no way otherthan suicide.
We need immediate gudance from British Government.
Prize own from UKNL- 850,000.00 P.S
Sl. No.5368/02 (Draw- # 1238)
winning Nos. 03.10.22.25.31.49.(04)
Identification No. UKNL/OWN/9876

Awaiting a quick reply by return of this mail.
With sincere regards,

Reply me as soon as possible!!!
Come on people! If it's too good to be true (which this is way over the top) then it is. Why would companies from other countries randomly select you for a prize?! They're a bunch of disgusting scumbags spread the word, do not let a loved one be scammed.
