Woman arrested for trying to fake jackpot winning lottery ticket

it's good when thieves are stupid.

At least she went for the BIG one!!

JohnnyBgood07, you put two words together up there that have me in hysterics...what is a krotchwaffle?

The terminals at horse racing tracks are suppose to shut down when the race starts, but one day at Thistledown they stayed open until after the race was over. Some of the Tellers noticed it and made lots of bets; they were caught, fired, and charges were filed. Saw a women get caught past-posting on a Roulette table and she was escorted away by security.

Bet lots of scammers thought about trying past-posting when the lottery began selling tickets online. But only the dumbest would try it with the record MM jackpot.

She must not be aware that this is the computer age...where computers can automatically determine which locations sold the winning numbers once the drawing is done.

she is AH stand^thief>>FAKE>>yes>but vote 4 her FFEEDOM!!!!!!

she made a mistake 2 promote poor people 2 futher<<<<<<<<yes<<<<<MORE PROVERTY 4 her FREEDOM!!

.  Lots of desperate folks out there this past dozen years; I'm surprised that more didn't attempt a similar fraud.

And it knows where they are drawn before also.

LOL, Yes she did, she'll be on Americas dumbest criminals.

Dumb as a box of rocks...literally.

L.L.

I hope there's room in the prison.

I think most of the Illinois Governors are in there.

Say hello to Blago, Leandria!

I wonder if the guy that tried to rob a bank with the note on the back side of his deposit slip, is a relative.lol

She probably didn't read the whole book ,on how the early-bird gets the worm.I'm glad there's stupid people like this it makes you feel better when you do something dumb.

Well if she was only trying to get fifteen minutes of glory ,........that's about all she got.lol

I agree she is a dim-numb-nut. Chicago tends to be home of the crooked and corrupt. Guess that is a side effect of being a bastion of blue. I won't be surprised if corruption and voter fraud surfaces in November, but I am surprised Oby and the Dems haven't proposed a special extra 10 percent jackpot lottery winner surcharge as a way to fund his monstrosity of a healthcare law and bring a warped sense of fairness to all those who play and don't win the lottery. I am just glad the lottery commission busted her so all the other honest Illinoisians can continue to enjoy the convenience of purchasing tickets online.

<scratching head>...I wonder if she works at McDonalds ???? 

That's the part that's realy mindboggling. I hardly expect everyone to know all the details of how it works, but you've got to be incredibly stupid to think that all you have to do is make a ticket that looks real. At the very least, does she have any clue at all about how the lotteries know whether  or not there was a winner, so they know what the next jackpot should be?

Actually, rdgrnr, former Illinois Govenor Blago was allowed to choose his prison.  Therefore, his team researched, and found a place, outside Illinois, which stood out for its abundant freedoms ... and now Blago has been there 1.5 months.

Apparently, Blago immediately started jogging every day, has lost the 15 lbs. overweight he had, and is enjoying both.  It is also reported, by the main media, that Blago's fellow prisoners (fellow thieves, etc.) are glad to know him and treat him as celebrity.  Several of we income tax payers in Illinois, though, are still very upset at the unnecessary millions of dollars Blago put us in the red to spend; as it will take us (and the generation under us) 25 years or so to return to the 'black'!
