Default Increase in fake emails?

It seems to me that there has recently been an increase in the number of fake emails.My inbox is full from these stupid emails claiming to be able to bring you a lot of money if you provide your personal details.

Is there anything that you can do to stop receiving these e-mails? How were they able to your e-mail add in the first place?

Thanks for replying guys.
I did not know about this.
This is how they get hold of my email address.
Luckily this is not my main address.
