I’ve won the Lottery so many times I’ve been put under investigation and now feel like a criminal

I play the lottery every week um with the same numbers at tesos I’ve had about 13 wins Al together since for over the last 15 years I went to tesos at Brook green to validate the ticket and when the uh lady put the ticket into the machine she said she wasn’t able to

Pay me that money out and that I needed to contact Camelot I rang Camelot and they said the claim number is no longer with them anymore it’s been passed over to the investigation team what I did say to him about like why am I being investigated because you know it makes

Me feel very uneasy as though I’m being treated like a criminal he said because of the amount of wins that you’ve won he said that’s why we’re investigating you

  1. camelot will never do this kind of rubbish to people, they were very good no matter how many times you win, we need to put them back in charge and remove Allwyn

  2. 1. The main point is not that her multiple winnings are being investigated.
    2. The main point is—if she is winning legitimately—how is it possible to win that many times?
    3. There have been conspiratorial lottery scams in the past.
    4. She says she plays the same number series repeatedly.
    5. Are there patterns of numbers that legitimately come up more often than others?

  3. Shame Camelot were dumped, we never heard of this BS before? Not sure how big corrupt companies are allowed to act this way and get away with it? I stopped playing Pokerstars etc because they hold payments and close accounts without paying for big wins. She should charge interest by the day and take them to court!

  4. The system does not expect people to have well stable lives but remain bound to what the system has put in place, hence monitoring our income even when we get older. Keeping people poor beyond unfathomable situations. Unbelievable these worldly systems thst bind people to a rat-tace. It is not right, and it should not be that way. We all should be able to access the earthly wealth that we all equally meant to acquire as long as no crime is committed.
