Don’t answer the phone, or the doorbell. Problem solved. Hell, I do that now and never even won the lottery.
I expect she fears it will cause her family & relatives to turn on her.....not everyone can be the Waltons:)
The few times I’ve bought lottery tickets, in the fine print it says basically that you agree to let the state use you and/or your name for advertisement.
Show up wearing a disguise.
No way. You know the rules. Use it or lose it.
If you don't like the rules don't play the game.Winner Privacy
New Hampshire state law requires the winner's name, town and amount won be available for public information. This is in accordance with RSA 91-A. A winner's street address and phone number are not considered public information. See Chapter Sw 600 rules for Prize Claims and Chapter Sw 500 rules for Prize Assignments for applicable rules and regulations.
I knew some people back in the 80s that had to sweat it out for a year on collecting a $40 million jackpot. It was tax issues.
I hope she hangs in there and prevails.
The simple fix is to just move after you get your money, right?
However, if I recall, a lawyer can set up a shell company that he can then represent, claiming that the lotto ticket was a multi-buy from employees. Therefore, the money in sum would be awarded to the company itself.
The winner of the largest jackpot worked in the same building with me. She picked up her check the next day. Big mistake.
She has since changed her name and moved for a while. She is building a nice house in a town where no one knows her.
It’s nice to win all that money, but the creeps come out of the woodwork. We were getting calls for her two and three weeks after she won.
Hillary?
Easy decision for me. Put my phone on voicemail and my email on ‘on vacation’. Collect my winnings and arrange for some security for a few weeks, by a nice evidently used RV and some fishing poles and hit the coastal communities.
I thought people have claimed lotto prizes as a Trust or such, not having to give individual name.
What you do is set up a trust, and let the trust claim it. This isn’t the first time this kind of thing has come up.
All I can say is It’s a good problem to have.
