What if group buys winning lottery ticket?News Story
Q: We are a financial club that invests in the stock market and also buys weekly lottery tickets. We all contribute and one member buys the tickets. It's wishful thinking, but what if the ticket wins $1 million?

Winner who claimed half of $395 million Mega Millions jackpot sues California Lottery for other halfReply
If he did indeed buy both tickets, and the video evidence shows him buying both tickets, then he should get the other half of the jackpot. The key to proving this is to get the video evidence. If I had bought both tickets, I would have called the store manager and had him look at the time stamped times to see what it showed. Then I would have paid the store manager to backup the video evidence to a flash drive (this is very easy to do with security camera systems -- I can do it in 2 minutes

Bill to allow Pennsylvania lottery players to claim anonymously passes unanimously in SenateReply
Personally l don't want to be anonymous but depends on my mood that day and the jackpot amount maybe maybe not. However l think all anonymous laws should expire after Ten Years this will at least give the public sense of fairness :). We live in a strange World . Remember the Airline that installed security doors to the snip pit and the Pilot was the one that committed Suicide so we need to have some Open Security too. So Ten years is good enough to put your S...together . This post has been

California man claims winning $2.04 billion Powerball lottery ticket was stolen from himReply
Large prize winning lottery tickets are not bearer instruments in California. In other states it may be different, but here the lottery absolutely will not pay out anything without verifying that the person making the claim was actually the person who bought the ticket. And if it's one of those cases where the winner sent someone to the store to buy some tickets, the lottery will interview the purchaser. That's why one of the requirements to be a lotto retailer here is having a good security cam

Two Illinois lottery winners in a partnership claim $1.34 billion Mega Millions jackpotReply
Until about six months ago, the New York State Lottery used to post if the first prize winning ticket was a QUICK PICK or REGULAR (OWN NUMBERS). I wrote and asked why they don't make the distinction any longer. The reply I received said that because of SECURITY ISSUES they don't do it any more. I couldn't think of any security issue where it would matter if the public knew if the ticket was a quick pick or if the winner chose their own numbers.
