SC officials getting nervous that $1.5 billion Mega Millions winner won't claim prizeReply
Again the only legal way of verifying a ticket is by going directly to the lottery office and running the ticket through a machine that verifies it. Of course there's serial numbers/ pictures of people buying tickets at certain times etc etc but the only way to legal say I'm the winner is to place said ticket in said machine and have the machine verify it. What you said about Cali is true for every state but what im telling you is that there's only one way that your ticket will be verified. But

Nice try! A vending machine won't be able to tell you which book number it gives you from a ticket. But you can scout other people playing a ticket in vending machine either by the garbage or by looking at the ticket the guy brought. Another option is to buy 1 and check for yourself. There are so many retailers you won't need to buy it from a lottery machine. Book are not released in order but they are released in 10,000 which is in order. When a new game is released, they don't release 60,000 b

Prosecution calling last witnesses for $5M lottery theft trialReply
These nincompoops and nuskulls will never learn this lesson. When I head to the store with an already played ticket, it is sure to have been a winner since I check the numbers on the Internet and over the lotto phone. So I know that I am certainly a winner and the clerk cannot deceive. Moreover, nowadays, there is that ticket checker that says you have won and when the ticket runs through the lotto machine, it makes a casino-like sound suggesting that you have won. A couple of times there have b

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Well today I went to the store and someone had left a $10 Jumbo bucks 002 ticket that was scratched and not a winner on the playslip stand. The machine didn't say OUT so I assumed that the next ticket was 001 or 000. It was ticket 000 but it won nothing. Disappointed. Promised I wouldn't pay any mind to any stray tickets and decide if I wanted the next in the machine but lo and behold I did. The machine still didn't say out so my sis bought the next one ticket 029 and it lost as well. 001 was pr

Winning a free ticket, want cash insteadReply
They don't give you free ticket because it is just too much trouble for them to go over the machine and give you a free ticket. Couldn't they force you to redeem it at the vending machine? I know with draw games in my state, if you get a free ticket it doesn't give you any options at all. It just spits out the free ticket whether you use a vending machine, or whether the clerk scans it on their machine. I don't play scratch offs much, but IIRC the one time I won a free ticket the cashier
