    33m Lottery Ticket Washed?

    Sounds dodgy to me and I reckon she's at it, numbers are visible but faded and so is 2016, however the actual day,date and barcode are not visible hmmmmm.

    I agree, reckon she's bought a ticket after the draw and doctored it.

    Camelot (now Canadian owned) will know everything about the winning ticket; the second it was bought; if other lines were bought; was it a lucky dip, there will probably be CCTV of the person buying the ticket.

    Anyone trying to con their way to the winnings will be up there with Darwin Award winners.

    They can't be done for being stupid so fraud seems a reasonable route.

    Apparently the person involved has sent the "ticket" in the post, stuck to some cardboard, on the advice of Camelot.

    I reckon that's the test. Anyone who genuinely knew they had a ticket worth £33m wouldn't let it out of their sight until they had it in writing the cash was going to their bank account!

    UK lottery operator Camelot has received a "valid claim" for a record £33m Lotto jackpot prize, it says.
    The holder of the winning ticket - bought in Worcester for the 9 January draw - has opted to remain anonymous.


    looking good for the woman

    Also a damaged ticket cannot be validated until after the 180 days limit. It would certainly appear as the German granny has bought a ticket after the draw and tried to fob it off as the winning ticket. Jail term beckons me thinks.

    Woman who made the washing machine claim isn't the winner. She's apparently got previous for making a similar claim with a scratchcard.

    Charge for attempted fraud on the way I think.
