Woman finds $1 Million Lottery ticket winner in the trash

[Dad]

But now she might have to give the money to another lady who claims she threw the ticket away after an electric scanner showed the ticket being a loser.

It's a court battle right now.

Here is the full story:

i saw this the other day. does the woman who pitched the ticket have any proof? my guess is not.

Why would this dummy woman even say she found it in the trash?

why would arjansas lottery pay out? U need to have proof you purchased the ticket, atleast that's what it is here

This was my initial thought; however I wonder if there's a way they can tell when the ticket was purchased. Because if the lady just told the lottery people she recently bought the ticket, then they find out the ticket was bought 10 months ago..... of course if you were a quick thinker you could just say "Well, I bought the ticket a long time ago and just recently scratched it off." I don't know, but I'd be lying my ass to keep all that money, **** that other broad.

I was expecting a half naked hottie holding a lottery ticket

[zoo youk]

I don't get it. the lady that supposedly threw away this winning ticket. how did she ever find out that the ticket she threw away 10 months ago was a winner and that was the one she threw away? how could she possibly find that out?

Dominator, as far as I am concerned, that should be the law.

[a4u2fear]

and we wonder why there are stupid laws, because of lawsuits like this. Trash is trash.
