Email scams are when victims are promised a large amount of money, such as a lottery prize, inheritance, money sitting in some bank account. Victims are tricked into sending money to the criminals but never receive this money. They hide their real identity and location by using fake names and postal addresses as well as communicating via anonymous free email accounts and mobile phones.
A scam is any kind of a con. Most con schemes are attempts to gain something from an unsuspecting victim by getting the victim to cooperate voluntarily. Scams today often use the authority figures people deal with every day, such as banking, credit cards, one's job, etc.
An email scam is a con sent by email. Most are phishing scams; like using a line to go fishing in a big lake, email scammers write a phishing message, hoping that some dumb fish (person) will come along and bite or take the bait. The email scams often take an authoritative tone, such as pretending to be a message from your bank, or even from your email provider. The message states they need certain information, or else (something bad or negative will happen). Some scammers use an apologetic tone: "We're sorry to inconvenience you..." Most email scams ask for name, address, telephone number, cell phone number, email address, email or account password, your social security number, and even your mother's maiden name. Each piece of info can be used in a different way to scam you, take your money, or gain access over your accounts.
Email scam is an unsolicited email that claims the prospect of a bargain or something for nothing.
A fake email represents the bait in a phishing scam. Potential victims are lured into the scam with an email that threatens a breach in security or some kind of reward for replying to the email and providing personal information.
Nearly everyone who has email has gotten such an email.
Yes it is a big scam. Just a note: I received an email from a friend telling me to go to the website of Home Revenue System. But this email was a scam itself. My friend never sent me this link.

Say if you have the usual email. "My relative died and I want to give you money for no reason", that is the bait
Yes they are.
Phishing
I personally feel that it is not a scam. However when you receive such kinds of mails just be a little careful.
When you mark an email as a phishing scam in Hotmail, it disappears because it gets forwarded to Microsoft for review.
