    NY Lotto Mistake : Hundreds of people thought they won 100k

    MajoR Fuckup By Somone at the NY Lotto office!.. 1 of the winning numbers for the Scratch off game was entered and published as a 13 instead of a 14...hence theres a couple hundred people at lotto headquaters standing in line right now waiting to collect there 100k that they will never see because The Lotto officials already said there not paying!. A few of the people on line told storeis of partying up this weekend, booking cruises and trips on credit cards,telling off boss and quitting jobs..

    ..Doors open at 9am...Police have arrived and are prepared for the worst.

    Talk about being OWNED!

            i wouldn't think so, considering it was a typo in the paper and not the actual #'s

            that would be like the new york post saying we are invading iran instead of iraq...would that mean we would have to invade iran too because someone hit the wrong letter?

                  I think it was the lotto people that gave the wrong number out ...not the papers mistake...the news story should hit online soon and we will find out some more of the specifics...but...man..i know if i thought i won a 100k on friday afternoon..but coulndt pick it up till monday am...i would have partied like a rock star all weekend with what i had in the bank...some peopleare talking lawsuit already

                    I think they should pay it.
                    If you have a REAL winning ticket, and you accidently rip the ticket, it's invalid and they dont pay! Therefore, they should have to pay for THEIR fuckup for once.
                    After all the deal is you match the numbers posted in the paper, right? And the numbers were posted, right? Seems they owe people some cash, lol.

                    Congrats to all of the winners!

                      You all saying they have to pay.. I am shocked.. in the US, the country of disclaimers all over the place, even on stupid coffee cups saying "this is hot coffee" you are telling me there is no disclaimer on every listing of lotto numbers saying that if these numbers are not actual ones actually drawn then you have no right to money? You gotta be kidding, the whole world does that but not the US?

                        Just checked nylottery.org, the page on the bottom says this:

                        The information contained on these pages is believed to be accurate. In the event of a discrepancy between the information displayed on this Web site concerning winning numbers and payouts and the information contained in the
                        official and certified files maintained by the New York Lottery's Drawing Unit, those maintained by the Drawing Unit shall prevail.

                        I'm sure any other place the numbers are printed says the same thing.

                                          thats what they get for being stupid enough to blow their $ before they even get it. they only got 100k and they're going to quit their jobs and tell their bosses to fuck off?

                                              Warning, Hot Coffee! Well how hot? Pour some on your lap then sue if it doesnt fit your definition of "hot"!

                                                True, but I think I would have waited untill I had the cheque in my hand before doing anything drastic.....

                                                      thats one wild story, I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later.

                                                        Isn't this why almost every broadcast on lottery numbers always says, here, unofficially are tonights winning lottery numbers. I think the unofficially disclaims most liability from broadcasters.

So you would think if you matched all the numbers you would win something big , but the $5 mill payout divided by that many people turned out to only be a few thousand after taxes
