UK pals jailed for winning £4 million in lottery using stolen debit cardReply
The winnings are proceeds of a crime , so the State can seize the prize... (the idea being that a criminal shouldn't benefit from their crime, In New Zealand, a person stole lots of money (received government benefits he wasn't entitled to IIRC) over many years and invested it in international stocks and gold. He made a lot of money doing that... When he was caught, the State took everything he couldn't prove wasn't funded by his crime..) So, maybe the State gets the winning ticket :)

Woman's winning lottery ticket rescued from trash by brotherReply
You don't have to give an occupation, but you can make it look like you have one. Well I am pretty familiar with the ethics codes for attorneys and one cannot act in furtherance of a crime and if you suspect your client in committing a crime, you have an obligation to resign from the case. I find it difficult to believe the attorneys, since their conversations would have been privileged, did not ask who was the actual ticket holder. The lottery officials continued to press for questions to be

Police foil alleged plot to kidnap lottery winnersReply
The article said that the guy got their name ouit of the phone book, so I don't think it had much to do with how cautiouis they were or weren't. This is a darn good example of why jackpot winners should be allowed to be anonymous. Justxploring Re: A crime wasn't committed . A crime wasn't commited in the Ft Dix bomb plot, either, was it? When the police can step in and stop a crime beofre it's committed, more power to them!

convicted felons and lottery winningsReply
Quote: Originally posted by bellyache on July 1, 2006 People may disagree with me but I beleive if you have served your time and you are free you should be able to collect lottery winnings. Why not?

If people don't want convicted felons to play make it a law that they can't legally purchase tickets and collect winnings. I didn't respond at first because I wasn't sure if the question refers to peo
