Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I have never heard of a misprint and think the couple you watched on youtube are mistaken. There are so many layers of security and accuracy checking when producing the scratch off tickets i doubt its possible for a misprint to make it out into circulation. The lottery will never check a big box of tickets for free and I will put money on it....lol....heck, they try to charge me for reports sometimes and when i requested the previous claimed winning $1M ticket numbers on $20 GRD they emailed me

High-tech lottery company opens new $15M facility in FloridaReply
No matter how many security features are built into a scratcher ticket, there will always be someone who will figure a way around it. If something can be built, it can be un-built!

A look behind the scenes at Hoosier Lottery drawingsReply
In the video, the security director said that they check to make sure the balls all weigh the same. If the balls all have different numbers on them and need more ink to make those numbers, wouldn't those balls weigh more than the others? ie: ball #1 compared to ball #8, or in the games with higher than 9 numbers ball #38.

Lottery scammer rigged more drawings than first thought, records showReply
I only play PB MM. I usually buy one ticket per draw. It only takes one ticket to win. If I played more than that my odds would not improve. Both games are drawn with rubber balls. The Security surrounding them is intense.

Court hears arguments on $559M lottery winner's plea to remain anonymousReply
Unfortunately, the publicity of this case has dropped so many hints as to who is person is, you could probably just go local and ask the average citizen. A person active in the community ... come on! Nice to fight for your rights, but know when the fight is over. Yes, you will have to move, or shore up your security for yourself and your family. Every person that has become wealthy the old fashion way has had to do that. The lottery folks will drag this on because its not their personal money, a

NH Powerball lottery winner sues for anonymityReply
God this woman is just sad and pathetic with her whining about this. If billionaires all over the world names and faces get published in Forbes and Fortune every year and they are just fine, she will be too. She has hundreds of millions of dollars, buy a mansion in a gated neighborhood, and hire security too if she feels the need to and STFU. I have guys in here in my subdivision that make up to $25 million a year and you can walk right up to our front doors and nothing has happened to anyone he

Final 2017 MM and/or PB jackpot?Reply
Floyd i did not take into account the time of the month previously. If it does roll tonight and on the 30th then on Wed the 3 rd a lot of people will have received there monthly social security and pension checks. That would add to what people have to spend on tickets compared to what they would have before the end of the month. Sadly some people will over spend what they really should. A combination of a big JP and people with extra money from there checks will add to the size of the JP. Of cou

Georgia Lottery denies millions in prizes to winners of scratch-off gamesReply
Lottery investigators are not alleging that anyone is attempting to redeem fraudulent tickets; by all accounts these are legitimate winning tickets. Further, no one seems to be claiming that a ticket was stolen from the rightful owner. Seems Georgia will be at a disadvantage in legal proceedings. What is the proof that they were redeeming for someone else even if someone else purchased the ticket? One gave a ticket to a son to scan to check if it was a winner- all recorded by store security- and

Survey: Many investors would make questionable decisions after winning the lotteryReply
There are no loans for retirement. I hope that the generation who will not see Social Security benefits will prepare themselves for retirement. After I die will be the time for the charities of my choice to receive benefits. I will include them in my will. But my family will come first.
