If you live in a state that has state taxes, it doesn't matter if you win in another state, they will take their cut.

Just make sure that you're a resident of a state without an income tax by the time you have constructive receipt of the winnings. According to the IRS that can't happen until some time after you've presented the ticket and the lottery has verified that it is the winning ticket, giving you plenty of time to move. It's possible that individual states may have laws that address... [ More ]

Perhaps I was unclear?

I said the only reason I could think of for not buying tickets from a state which allows for anonymity is if you reside in a state which does not tax lottery winnings. I'm not talking about someone trying to buy tickets in a no lottery tax state when they reside in a state which imposes taxes on lottery winnings. I think we all know that the home state will go after their cut.

If a state's law demands that lottery winners pay state taxes on jackpots even if they do... [ More ]

If I could play any US lottery on-line besides my local lottery I would definitely play the Maryland Lottery. I'd take my business there for powerball, mega millions, cash4life and they allow winners anonymity there, not sure to be physically there to claim. But I'd still get Superlotto Plus tickets when the jackpot is high.

You can't on theLotter however, because their tickets are bought in New Jersey, Florida and New York.

(Maybe I didn't understand them correctly, I thought they wanted to buy in a state that allows anonymity)

MegaMillions

Tickets for this lottery are purchased in either New Jersey or New York

Yes! Alrightthat would be great

Yes, I believe you can, and you should be able to achieve the same anonymity as a winner who lives in that state would.

I wanted to ask Todd or will probably go directly e-mail The Lotter because I wanted to ask

if you can purchase Powerball or MegaMillions from states that are anonymous.

Just imagine if you could buy tickets anywhere and states had to start competing with each other for our business. Ball drawings instead of RNG, anonymity, better payouts.

Sounds good to me.

And when you look at that, no state tax and no disclosure, Wyoming and Delaware would make out like bandits.

I know of this site Lucke zone, in thier rules it states that

they will kick you from the site, and or not pay out winners

from other states. I don't see how they can legaly do that,

just something I remember reading.

yes, definately anonymity is what I would strive for.

safety and peace of mind for family and myself of course.

Living in Utah without a lottery I have always gone up to Idaho to buy my lotto.... That is until last year when Wyoming got the lottery and has the option to remain anonymous. Even though Wy lottery doest have nearly as many draw games or any scratchers I Choose to play there because I want to be anonymous when I win. Wyoming will be getting Lucky For Life soon which I am excited about

I can't think of a single reason why anyone wouldn't opt to play in an anonymous state if they could do so with almost zero effort. I know some people will bring up playing in a state with no lottery tax might be preferential. I could see the draw in keeping millions of dollars more. But I care a whole lot less about taxes or lucky states than I do about anonymity. To me anonymity trumps everything else and is second only to actually winning a big jackpot.

First the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 must be repealed or changed. If that happens, I suppose the rules that apply to remaining anonymous now will remain the same. That would only apply to MM and PB games.

Rght, but that's my point, if someone from California could play online in Delaware, without having to fly or drive there, would they do it

I know what your asking, but players can buy tickets in other states. A few years ago when I lived in Ohio and the MM jackpot was in record territory, I bought tickets at gas station in Shelby Township, Michigan that was across the road from the store that sold the jackpot winning ticket. Had any of my tickets won something, I had to cash them in Michigan.

There are now states with Online MM and PB sales (I live in one of them, KY), but only state residence and people physically in the state

MaximumMillions — Sun, 09 Oct 2016 23:49:50 GMT

I was wondering what you people would do if the US government ever allowed true direct, official sales of online tickets from lottery comissions to at least us citizens.

Assuming the cost of games would be the same of offline sales in your states and all your games are available online.

This might be even more attractive if one wants to play in one of the states that wins frequently.
