I believe I read an article stating that their lawyer was able to claim as a lottery club and due to a grey area , they were able to keep it anonymous. They purchased an actual ticket. I wonder if someone who buys their tickets here in Michigan online if they are able to do the same after a big win since you have to set up your online account with all your personal info at the start.

That post made little to zero sense. Defacing the ticket as you implied with this utter nonsense would serve to disqualify said ticket. This is mentioned in the video.

All true.

We secured an LLC name beforehand.

When we cashed our ticket the first thing the clerk did was turn it over to see if we signed it .

There are ways around having to come forward when one wins a large lottery. One way around this, is to have a lawyer or someone with legal knowledge form some type of LLC company so, the lottery can be claimed under the company name. I am sure there are other ways as well. The lottery commission does not want people knowing about ways to stay anonymous because if everyone did it, people would start thinking no real people ever win the lottery.

I actually would put a line through it so therefore they would have to prove anything. I could also sign I know nothing.

I'm wondering how the Billion dollar Mega Million winner was able to stay anonymous in Michigan. If they can stay anonymous everyone else who wins in Michigan should be able to also.

I got no problem signing those tickets.

It's all the alimony checks that I hate signing.
