Mississippi men tried cashing in lottery ticket after gluing on the winning numbers, officials sayReply
Had similar happen years ago at a store where I worked. They got I don't know how many books of the first $20 scratchers, activated them and went store hopping in neighboring counties to cash them in. They didn't have to sign anything though. The security cameras I set up for owners was enough. Too many people will work harder at not working than they would at actually working. Even one is too many as far as I'm concerned. Had banned substances not been involved, it probably wouldn't have happen

CDanaT. These two players will be the first to be punished since MS Lottery began. They will be made examples of what not to do. Here in California we have SLED. Security and Law Enforcement Division.

Unlike you Lucky Loser, I believe mechanical lottery machines are tested to validate the randomness of the balls being selected. I am paying money to the lottery for tickets, and my financial success or failure for any given drawing partially depends on their machine operating in a fair and proper manner. Security and auditing are mandatory for each and every drawing, and these pre-tests are a part of that security. I understand what you are saying about wear and tear on machines, but I see n

'You assume all the money noise stops when you finally have it'Reply
Aside from this article, I've read that ~ 66% of all lottery winners end up going bankrupt within 5 years. Terrible statistic, but not surprising, given most don't make any plans or consult with experts prior to claiming the money. What would I do? Let's see... 1) Tell no one right away. Put my ticket (unsigned for now; how you sign it is how you must claim it) in my safe for secure keeping until I'm ready. 2) Don't claim the money until I found out if I can shield myself from publicity
