Communicating through official channels "This is the winner!" seems like it's more of an issue for them. It's not a 3rd party misreporting the numbers, it was the company itself publishing the winners itself.
Yeah. I wonder what the state laws say about official notification of lottery winners. There's gotta be a regulation saying how you check what's official to stop lawsuits.
Lottery websites usually have disclaimers on them telling you that the numbers displayed are not official. Only the numbers that were drawn live on television are official.
I wouldn't be surprised to see him get something, but it's not going to be anything massive. A few hundred grand at absolute most - I'd optimistically expect something in the 20-50k range.
I think 20-50K is the standard allotment that a reasonable person is expected to spend on hookers and blow on the day that they are informed they just won $340 million.
