$83.5 million Lotto Texas winner reveals name in court battle: "Tired of being ignored"Reply
Even if all the combinations were purchased (which I understand did NOT happen here) and a courier or other third party facilitated the purchases, there was no crime committed. There was no intent to defraud, commit a crime, or other conspiracy.

$83.5 million Lotto Texas winner reveals name in court battle: "Tired of being ignored"Reply
No, the reason for the denial of payment is as clear as day. The powers that be, think this woman is in Kahoots with the courier service and the Rook TX group who purchased all the lottery combinations to win the $95 in 2023. The people responsible for giving the woman the money feel like they can not be duped a 2nd time so they are denying her the money

Lottery Courier services are both retailers and resellers and this bill is well poised to preempt and/or deter their activities in the business of buying up numbers and reselling them at a higher price to players under color of service in this Beaver State .

I just checked that game out. The odds look pretty good. And as high as the jackpot is. Compared to the odds. A courier service could wreck this game tonight. Again good luck if your getting a ticket tonight!

Judge temporarily halts Texas Lottery ban on courier, hints courier "will likely prevail"Reply
People residing in a different state can use a lottery courier to win a prize. That's not fair to the people that lives in Texas.

Texas Lottery Commission votes to ban lottery couriersReply
I'd like to reiterate that banning couriers will not solve the problem. Jackpots have been purchased by a large group (buying all the combinations) without couriers before. Have you read our investigation ? Highly recommend you give it a read for more clarity, it also explains how a buyout was accomplished without the help of a courier and how they are being punished when there is actually a simple fix for it.
