Do you guys think the mega millions and maybe powerball is rigged?Reply
You can view the drawing here http://megamillions.com/numbers/ in order for the drawing to be rigged there would have to be at least a dozen or more people in on it. In the studio when the countdown to air the drawing takes place thats when the official drawing is held all the other drawings are recorded for the auditor. Now if and numbers were drawn that weren't during the time frame that the official drawing was supposedly done don't you think the auditor would call foul. Better yet how many p

Ohio Lottery opposes state auditReply
One state which desperately needs a full audit, including undercover sting operations performed on retailers, is New York. There was a TV news program which covered undercover stings on retailers in California. A few, not many, retail clerks would check a ticket. Sometimes if the ticket was a winning ticket, the clerk would say it was not a winner and keep the ticket, cashing it later. California has stiff penalties for such acts of fraud. When caught, the clerks are arrested and the retailer wo

Victim of stolen Texas lottery ticket says he knows how to get money backNews Story
Willis Willis has an idea how he can get his money back from the store clerk who authorities say stole his $1 million winning lottery ticket. Just get me in a room with him for two minutes, says the 67-year-old Navy veteran. Willis was back home in Grand Prairie on Tuesday after a meeting with Texas Lottery Commission officials Monday in Austin in which his attorneys tried unsuccessfully to collect the winnings. It was a meeting that only seemed to add confusion and frustration to the

This Site [Is Great!]Reply
To me this sounds as though you might be somewhat confused, okay! he gave you a hit and that is a good thing, however ask yourself 2 questions, How long did I have to play his number before it hit and how much did I spend trying to catch one of his hits then think on this was a profit made , and only you can answer those questions honestly... Therefore instead of being ashame of being a part of the greastest Lottery site and the person responsible for maintaining this site so it will remain a

Cheated winner wants Texas Lottery to pay upReply
I'm very skeptical that the courts will find that to make the clerk an agent of the lottery. The court has already made a ruling. investigators determined that Willis had bought the ticket, and they gave their findings to the Travis County District Attorney's Office, according to police. A Travis County grand jury indicted Joshi on the offense of claiming a lottery prize by fraud, a second-degree felony. The article goes on to explain over half the money has been recovered. As fo

Lottery heartbreak: Florida man says he lost $500,000 ticketReply
I saw this on the news also. If the news stories are correct in their facts, eventually he will get the money. He does have the confirmation ticket which the lottery terminal printed out when the ticket was scanned. He also has a witness (the store clerk) who scanned the ticket. I'm sure the clerk noticed it was a big winner. The question is how long it will take the lottery to conduct the investigation. If someone else submits the ticket for payment, the lottery will not pay out immediate

Arkansas lottery retailers to be policed for fraud, officials sayReply
Perhaps you are right. It would be time consuming and I don't think retailers would be very happy spending so much time for a customer buying a #1 ticket. But without doing something proactive....it is very diffiucult to detect fraud. Pretty much the only way a criminal could get caught is if a undercover agent tests the retailer to see if they confirm the correct winnings. Right now all they have to do is find a winning ticket and if the ticket is unsigned.....it can be redeemed by anyone

New report criticizes Iowa Lottery securityReply
Ridiculous. Iowa runs one of the best lotteries in the country, having effectively removed any possibility of fraud or corruption within their corporate structure. The Iowa Lottery doesn't even conduct their own drawings - they use Illinois's numbers for their lotto and daily games. Apparently, from what I read in the article, the problem rests with dishonest retailers who don't feel compelled to pay their winners, but the Iowa Lottery can't be held responsible for the criminal behav

Lottery retailers busted in raidReply
This whole thing I bet has been going on for years and it's really a case of who's the a8Shole . Call me one,but i'm a firm believer that people shouldn't be playing any games when they don't know the prizes for their desired games.Of course the store owners should be hung,but it seems a 2 way street.I'm glad they got caught. I know in connecticut they recently adopted satellites to transmit numbers etc to the terminals and also the screen is facing the customer so when you win ,you see it

Lottery retailers busted in raidReply
What do you think of my new SCAM graphic - Nice Todd! Draws attention to what you should be looking out for. As for getting paid in Pennsylvania its easy they print out a paid ticket and the money at the same time. Or they will give you a 'no winner'. The ONLY thing that I'm getting upset with some of the lottery retailers is not being paid in cash but with a money orders or check. I didn't play with either and take offense that they do that. I will not cash my ticket at those places and
