CT Lottery security chief on paid leave following review of botched raffle drawReply
lot more complicated than just entering the wrong number and not catching the mistake. Have you ever WRITTEN policy or procedures? I have, for mixing multiple departments doing a similar process into one process. NOT FUN! Creating the procedures is very difficult, but the end result needs to be VERY simple to follow and easy to understand. Then there needs to be a audit process for quality and disciplinary action if not followed. So when a procedure is not followed and the result is a l

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Hmm, about that Navarro Pharmacy location in the Miami Airport. Is that inside the Terminal meaning only ticketed passengers can get through? That would be insane if the winning ticket is lurking there. I feel like playing some scratchers today. Not sure which one to try. We went out for Thanksgiving last night. I bought a $5 Maximum Money and won $10 and got my mom/gram a $2 ticket each of Holiday Millions and Triple Play, so I netted $1 Another question about the 200MS or 50X. Are t

Just won $1,230,946.00Reply
Now I'm getting carpet-bombed w/this stuff. All different names but looks like it's coming from the same place. Shipment status advisory, notice of public access report, Document Holder from Audit Bureau. Must cost money to print and mail this stuff, where are they getting it ? I still haven't heard from the postmaster.

Minnesota Lottery director resigns after timeshare inquiryNews Story

I accepted his resignation. We will immediately begin a search for his replacement. Van Petten had been reimb

Audit: Stores buying Michigan lottery tickets from playersReply
I just re-read my response to the highlighted portion and realized it probably wasn't clear: They likely determine it by as I said, a record comparison. If Bob reported income of $100,000 but the lottery says he won $200,000, he obviously didn't report $100,000 in winnings. At the very least he should have reported $200,000 in income, showed an offset of $100,000 for AGI of $100,000 (minus std. deductions of course but you get the idea). The methodology isn't in the report, just the findings.

"Peeking" is scanning unsold cards to determine winnersReply
Strange that 'peeking' is even possible especially in a lottery like Massachusetts. In most states you cannot simply scan the ticket to determine its status of a winner...you have to physically scratch off at least some portion of the ticket. I was under the impression this was universal nowadays. Edit: From the audit report, Currently, the barcode used to cash MSLC instant tickets is located on the back of each ticket. Are you kidding me? Wow, can imagine the temptation for a retailer

CA Lottery - California Love - CA Lottery ScratchersReply
Welcome to this thread DGinElMonte, it is cool to see a retailer representation here. Not sure what you are allowed to divulge as an agreement to the CALottery. The basis for the $5million jackpot was from hardcore players on the CALottery facebook page. I still see them in stores even after a few months. If you can order more of those tickets, that is all I need to hear to believe the game is still good (horrible game from my standpoint as a player). As far as the top ticket situation goes,
