Judge rules $560M Powerball lottery winner can stay anonymousReply
The way she was fighting made it seem more like she was trying to screw someone out of some money than hide who she is for security purposes. I have several neighbors that are high profile guys from Fortune 500 executives to pro-athletes that make from $5 million to $25 million a year and you can walk right up to our front doors and no one has any security guards. It's possible Jane Doe spoke out against the lottery and/or gambling in general or something like that and why she doesn't want

Mystery NH Powerball lottery winner gets her prize, keeps her privacy — for nowReply
I too have an unique last name; only two people in the entire state have it. One of my favorite quotes by some the large jackpot winners is I plan to keep on working and my life won't change . I suppose it depends on the type of job, but do they really believe life will go on the same? Lots of people here seem to think state lotteries are responsible for the security the large jackpot prize winners, but prize winners under $10 million should be on their own. Most stores have security cams

Who is mightier, the one-armed bandits or the cellphone bandits?
~With Compliments Eddessa_Knight with Lucky Light ~ If you see a guy wandering the aisles of South Florida s casinos, pointing his cellphone at the slot machines, don t bother offering to help him snap a selfie. Rather than a hopelessly inept tourist, he s more likely a cheater, using his phone to exploit a security gap that, by some estimates, has cost American casinos millions of dollars in slot-machine losses. The scheme to rip off the slot machines was devised by everybody

Clarity Pick3 (Testing State Florida)Reply
Lots of code changes for that sadly...I will implement that but not on the trial release. I will only supply one draw per state for the test of 30 days. A person can see if it works by playing that draw. I am still changing stuff and can only roll it out when I am satisfied. Its not as simple as just feeding it a text file......way more complex than that.There is allot of things happening behind the scene .....I have not touched it as I will put that in the manual. So no multiple draws on the

How would you claim a lottery jackpot if you won?Reply
That's a reasonable compromise and one every state should adopt. It would satisfy the need for transparency and give the winners time to institute some security measures . As far as security concerns, history shows a winner has more to fear from their family and friends than they do strangers and more chance of being robbed from men in suits and ties than those in ski masks and brandishing a pistol. That said, a winner has more to lose from their own bad decisions than robbers, shady investment

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
I truly believe Trump is playing chess and almost everyone else is playing checkers. If your baseline is that Trump is a self-promoting, idiotic buffoon, who has accomplished nothing in life and screws everyone he has ever come into contact with certainly you will interpret his comments negatively. However, if you open your minds to the reality that he is a very successful businessman with negotiation and other skills that enabled his growth on a worldwide scale, you may delve a little deeper in

Unclaimed Jackpot PrizesReply
Not sure, but there are people who have access to the manifests and they are typically security officials. These days these are kept in databases and not on paper, so anything that was a DBA or in security could have access to all the games and where the tickets are. It seems you can find this story anymore, but I did find a reference in a couple of places. http://www.ripleynews.com/2004/04-11-11_lottery.html

One New Jersey lottery player wins $429.6 million Powerball jackpotReply
I'm not saying they vanished as much as I'm saying they never existed to begin with. The 1/3 California and the NJ jackpost winners have not showed up. Meanwhile, the jackpot goes back down to 40M without the lottery having to pay any money. Does the 7-11 in NJ have security cameras? They know the exact date and time the powereball machine spit out that ticket. From the security cameras, find out who purchased it. But that won't happen. Why?

Do Rng Computers Know What Numbers Not To Pick?Reply
There are two things that should be clear. One is that when speaking about any form of gambling the house refers to the entity that runs the game(s) and has the advantage due to the odds being in favor of the house. The other is that cyber security is a broad term that refers to all aspects of security. Even if it was specific to networks or the internet in particular, I'm pretty sure the South Dakota lottery has networked computers in addition to their RNG machines.Perhaps you'll recall the

Do Rng Computers Know What Numbers Not To Pick?Reply
I clicked on the link. The quote from the article and the title is enough unless you can't understand what The commission received a presentation on cyber security Thursday from Jim Edman means speaking of being inebriated. Why would the Lottery commission need a cyber security presentation when that lottery only has one RNG drawn game? Is the house p4wanbi was talking about still confusing you too?
