Massachusetts Mega Millions winner who had $3 million ticket stolen from him claims prizeReply
Read the article. He forgot the tickets. There was no intent to abandon his tickets. He had just purchased them.

Florida LLC revealed to have claimed $1.6 billion Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
The Saltines LLC/Saltines Holdings LLC rats nest is probably there to obscure the FL doctor winner. Maybe, maybe not. I hadn't looked before, but the official announcement by the FL Lottery says the prize was claimed by Saltines Holdings LLC. This article says they're based in Miami but according to Florida's official corporate registry there's not a Saltines Holdings (LLC or any other corporate structure) anywhere in Florida. The listing you linked to is for Saltines LLC , which lists a Mi

$1.3 billion Powerball winner revealed by Oregon Lottery as three people splitting jackpotReply
I read in another article that they are splitting it equally 3 ways. So the fact that Chao is getting only 1/3 of the jackpot strongly indicates that she paid 1/3 of the total cost of their shared tickets. Plausibly, what happened is the husband (and wife) bought $200 worth of tickets, then later called up Chao to ask if she wanted to pitch in $100 more to buy more tickets on top of what he already purchased. That would make $300.

California winner of $1.765 billion Powerball jackpot is lauded as kind family man by neighborsReply
Weird that the article says Struyck is the representative of a group that won $1.765 billion and the other members of the group have not been named but it sure looks like this discussion is assuming Struyck is the sole ticket owner. Can't recall in the past where the neighbors' of another spokesman of a group of jackpot winners were interviewed

DC man sues the lottery after incorrect numbers posted on website would have won him $340 millionReply
Two things I had hoped for: 1) That Todd Kate would run this article and #2) That Artist 77 would comment since it is in your backyard. This was on YouTube and I commented on it. You talk about some hateful comments directed @ me. One even said I wasn't educated. Blasted that one out and said eff your attitude that my SO worked in Criminal Justice for 40 years and my measly eight months as a Grand Juror and know what I'm talking about.

Florida LLC revealed to have claimed $1.6 billion Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
Hi everyone! A little late to the conversation here, but I wanted to clarify the wording based in Miami in the article. The jackpot winner records initially released to the public by the Florida Lottery had Miami, Florida as the city associated with the claimant, Saltines Holdings, LLC, but it did not clarify whether that meant the LLC was incorporated in Miami. We have seen other outlets piece together some information and say that the LLC was incorporated in Delaware, as well as the possibilit

$2B Powerball winner Edwin Castro bought $4M mansion for parents while brother manages his wealthReply
Jack, I will have to respectfully have to disagree with you on this one. He obviously has a good heart to purchase this expensive home for his parents. He has his brother involved with finances(something I would never do) His alleged donations to local charities signals his willingness to give and help, as the article states.....Perhaps the young man has started a private company that gives to the needy. Maybe he has already donated to the Make A wish Foundation, Shriners Hospital for Children,

Hoosier Lottery Commission votes to approve $50,000 prize claim to winner whose ticket was ripped upReply
The article clearly states, In a meeting that took place in Indianapolis on Tuesday, Lottery commissioners discussed Paul Marshall and his winning $50,000 Powerball ticket. The catch was that he stepped forward to claim the prize, but his ticket was in pieces .

Scotland's £148M EuroMillions lottery winner no longer speaking to family after giving them £20MReply
Be interested to see Todd Kate's response to NY Times article that Iowa post wrong Powerball results---human error. Suspicious to me that some folks were able to 'cash in' amounts up $200 on the wrong #'s in the wee hours of the morning. That doesn't sit well with me. If they were posted incorrectly then someone entered the wrong #'s in the system. There should be electronic safeguards. Give me a break, folks cashing in the wee hours of the morning. Here the system for on-line goes off-line from

Massachusetts woman accidentally receives $20,000 worth of lottery tickets in the mailReply
point of article not activated not worth the paper they're printed on. She did the right thing. Watching folks load the self service lotto machine noticed they don't activate the pack(s); perhaps the machine does when purchased. Just like buying them from the clerk here, they activate them POS.
