Letter sent to 360 elected officials and investigatory agencies regarding fraud within NYS LotteryReply
i would be so happy to get involved in this. I run a youtube channel and have about 550 subs, a lot from new york, that are disgusted with NY states lottery. I scratch about $100 worth of tickets daily and put them on the channel. the odds on these tickets are really taking a nose dive lately. as far as the $30 tickets I had 5 stores by me that had books one day and the next day each one of them told me the same story that they were taking away. I cant find one store in queens that has them. Unt

Thanks. Yeah, I saw the other thread later on too, after the fact. At this point, I can't delete my post here, so you may want to reference it. I forgot to mention that independent auditors are also involved, so there's another layer. I believe the article was in response to the scandal involving a corrupt lottery security official that knew where winning tickets were being sold, and sent his cronies to buy up rolls/packs of tickets to win the top prize.

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I have my doubts against them intentionally pulling winning tickets. It goes with the logic that more than 1 person would have to know about the intent and the odds that someone would eventually spill the beans, pissed off former employee or what not, is too high and would cause too much of a scandal. I've also gotten questionable information from retailers before. One telling me King's Ransom was done, couldn't order anymore, and then a week later he had new rolls. Lady at the gas station said

NYS Lottery commits fraud in sales of Scratch off gameReply
My nick name is Donafello and have a you tube channel with the same name. I have been scratching almost $200 a day in tickets for the last 100 days on my channel live on video. Now I;m not even going to get into the amount of losers I have pulled, but I have to voice my concern about these $30 tickets. When I first started the channel I had a few stores that had the tickets in stock and I was buying them with no problem. Then a week it and all of a sudden the stores I went into that had tickets

Ticket corruptReply
I know that everyone is quick to think the lottery is fixed but I have to tell you that not always is the information correct at the time you are asking. Not only that, most states now are not paying out store owners/employees or families that win until a full investigation is conducted to prove that it is a legitimate win. Lotteries do not want scandals. If this is true they will look at the tapes, they will talk to others and they will even take out full page ad's to ensure that it was sold le

Scratch Tickets are NO GOODReply
I am very familiar on how scratch tickets work in Ontario. To validate a scratch ticket, the clerk needs to also enter a 4 digit code that appears under the latex. Now I am also familiar with the current scandal in Ontario and by no means am I trying to defend the Ontario Lottery Gaming Corporation or store clerks. There is a strong basis to the claims that players are being defrauded. The most common way clerks are defrauding players is by making very small scratch marks on the tickets to

NYS lotto Scratch off's (DIRTY SECRET) information that is not revealed to the public-SCAM OR NOT?Reply
I would not give up. You need to keep writing letters. No matter what, they have to read and answer each letter. Not only that but, if there ever is a scandal about what you are saying to be true, you will be able to claim the credit for revealing this and for the state hiding the information they received from you. And if their ever is a class action suit that reads into your allegation you will be able to sign on. The biggest reason is that you are alerting the politicians and letting them kno

Buy older games or newer games?Reply
I know very well the Illinois Lotto scandal But games like Fabulous Fortune , 100x the Cash and 20x20 (All $20 games) seem to have all actually had pretty decent hit rates and are all long running games None of these games appear have had legitimacy called into question Last time I checked the available large/jackpot prizes from games outstanding (And odds to win) Fabulous Fortune (Break even is 1 in 2:59 / Game debuted in January of 2014) $1,000 = 1,808 left of 8,800
