550,000 dollar LOTTO SCAM!
http://cbs13.com/topstories/local_story_235005037.html

Wow, Clerk scams lotto winner by telling him he has a lotto ticket worth only 4 bucks, instead it is worth 550K. She keeps it.

He sees a story about unclaimed lotto winnings, remembers his numbers and calls the Lotto office.Now she is BUSTED!

She had not yet tried to cash it and tried to enlist someone else in the scam.

This is right by my house and I have bought lotto tickets there before.


NOTE TO SELF: always use the reader machines, never let the clerk run the tickets.
