Ohio Lottery halts some prize payouts due to Christmas Eve cybersecurity incidentReply
If you had a debit card on record with the Ohio lottery, I would lock/freeze your debit card, and get a new card number, lest you lose all the money in your bank account. Social Security numbers leaks facilitate ID theft. Concerning the hackers changing the draw picks to their numbers -- I predict the hackers would get caught if they tried to collect a prize $600. All those valid active debit card numbers are way more valuable to the thieves than collecting a lotto prize.

$1.35 billion Mega Millions lottery winner suing mother of his child for revealing win to familyReply
Somebody watched too much Law and Order and thinks people will believe they are a Jack McCoy. In real life John Doe not only has to prove Sara signed the NDA but prove she told his father and step-mother. Like I said before, Maine is a state with broad rights to access public records and the NDA will be part of the public record if and when it is entered into evidence. Bet everyone will know his name if he doesn't withdraws the lawsuit.

$925 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot nears billion-dollar milestoneReply
I think we're going to be looking at a new record. Annuity rates are high and sales are low. I think it could go the distance. Normies look at the annuity only anyways... People really do not understand how lottery tickets work. 2.5 bil advertised, 1.2 bil cash. Single winner. GA or TN. Scratch that FL or CA I'd love to see Ole California Edwin win it again and buy more Hollywood mansions. Maybe with his newfound wealth he could travel east and purchase the Biltmore.
