I noticed on the news that a man won a lottery and when he arrived to claim his prize, he was requested to state or provide information about where he purchased the lottery ticket, which he couldn't do because he didn't know where he obtained it. It drew my interest, and I wondered if forum users could still tell where they purchased all of their lottery tickets in the previous six months (For those who still engage if physical tickets).

I have seen someone who had same experience and what causes this type of situation is playing bets at numerous gambling offices because when you gamble at different gambling offices then you may not know the exact office you place the bet except the agents address code is written on the bet slip. Though I don't know how long lottery tickets last but a gambler is supposed to know where he bought a lottery ticket so far as the tickets have not yet been confirmed. It will be so sad that a gambler managed to win a lottery and not able to make claims due to not knowing the exact place that the ticket was bought. What is the man went there to do when he has lost his lottery ticket? He should know that no money won that would be given him if there is no proof. And that lottery ticket is the proof. If he lost the lottery ticket, he should know that the money has also been lost.
He didn't lost the ticket, he still has it in his possession just that he forgot where he bought it from, how can someone claim a lottery winning without the ticket it's impossible so in this case not that he lost the ticket.

Good news, after all... After CTV News got in touch with OLG, they took another look at Zhou’s case. He’s since been informed his cheque has been processed and will be sent shortly to him in the mail, which was great news for him. After some pressure from the media, the casino felt forced to pay the prize to the winner. In this case the media was very helpful and the gambler should be really thanful to them for that. On the other hand, after reading these news, I wouldn't feel comfortable using OLG's gambling services as customer, because their excuses are shady and seem to have as main goal to scam the winners. If a gambler has a ticket and the ticket is awarded, they should just pay the prize to the individual claiming it. Maybe the winner doesn't want to reveal himself, so they shouldn't force him to do so. Well, thankfully crypto gambling exists, so gamblers don't need to expose themselves to this kind of embarrassing situation.

The faintest pen is sharper than the sharpest memory, this situation would simply have been avoided if the man had simply written down on a separate dairy where and when the ticket was gotten from, as it is not also advisable to write on the lottery ticket or maybe just kept receipts. I presume that he was not properly informed about the requirements to claim a lottery win, because if he was informed, he would have known that the where are when the ticket was purchased are likely questions to be asked when you want to claim your lottery win, and he would have detailed them. What is the man went there to do when he has lost his lottery ticket? He should know that no money won that would be given him if there is no proof. And that lottery ticket is the proof. If he lost the lottery ticket, he should know that the money has also been lost.
Did you read the news from the link at all or just hurried to respond? It didn't say the man lost his lottery ticket.

I don’t buy lottery tickets but I imagine if I did I would be able to tell you where I bought them. At the very least I’d be able to give you a list of potential shops where I have purchased them in the past. The fact they even asked leads me to believe that someone likely complained about a theft of their ticket and this is the result.

This is on whats on my mind too on which trying to ask out on where that ticket been bought which gives out that suspicions that there's something behind those queries on which this is something that should really be personal. As for buying on physical lottery tickets then it would really be just that impossible that you cant really be able to remember specially if it was that 5-6 months ago and if you are getting used to buy on the same spot all over the years on betting on lotteries then it is really that unlikely that you do get lost and would definitely remembering everything. Just in case you have that mind or remember about buying on other outlets then you would be definitely be considering on having that visit. Here in our country on which if ever you would be buying some tickets then there would really be some specific lottery outlet code numbers on which just in case you are lost on where you are really that able to purchase those tickets then you could be able to trace them out manually.

There's a lot of lottery booth in my country but you can easily tell where you purchased your ticket because the result always came within the day and of course, you can't forget where you buy your ticket yesterday not unless you have a serious mental health problem. As a ticket bettor as well, we always monitor the result of lottery so I wonder if he didn't know he won the lottery on the day of the draw or he's not the one who purchase the ticket? I never forget where I bought my ticket.

Unless the lottery ticket was given to him for free or as a gift by someone, if not, how possible is it that one can't remember where they bought their lottery ticket from, or an event that he might have eventually won the ticket? It might take him a little time to think, but it's not something that he can forget completely so easily. If it's a lottery ticket, he should go back to his credit card or debit card purchase history. Maybe he could be able to trace back where he made the purchase of tickets in the last few months.

What is the man went there to do when he has lost his lottery ticket? He should know that no money won that would be given him if there is no proof. And that lottery ticket is the proof. If he lost the lottery ticket, he should know that the money has also been lost.
Did you read the news from the link at all or just hurried to respond? It didn't say the man lost his lottery ticket. Thanks for telling me this. When I clicked on the link, it was showing error but it later open the site for me without any problem. Even without the link, the post is self explanatory but I it was me that got it not right. I have deleted the post as it is not useful. There's a lot of lottery booth in my country but you can easily tell where you purchased your ticket because the result always came within the day and of course, you can't forget where you buy your ticket yesterday not unless you have a serious mental health problem.

Some people can buy a ticket and not check it at all because they are thinking they can not win. But some months later he can see the ticket and later knew that he won the ticket.

Six months is quite a long period of time but I know that for a game I both the ticket within few days or weeks, I will be able to still maintain such ticket well enough and still be able to identify where the ticket was bought, it's something I cannot seem to forget so soon already because it's important to me, until I confirmed that such ticket has been lost or is a loser then I will discard it but anything contrary I still make sure to preserve it well enough and still make sure to keep in mind where and when I bought the tickets for reference purposes which is definitely not something I will just forget so quickly as it means a whole lot to .e already.

I imagine it’s a wake-up call for many lottery players to keep track of such crucial information. It’s easy to overlook these details when buying tickets regularly.
Can you imagine winning the lottery and then having it all fall apart because you forgot where you got the ticket? I know, right? It makes you wonder how many people keep track of where they buy their tickets, especially for those who play casually. Six months is a long time to remember! Maybe a little receipt holder keychain or something for lottery tickets would be a good idea...

Why does it matter where you bought the ticket? If you have the ticket that should be enough information to be able to track where it was bought and cross-check. This is one of the more absurd stories and one further reason to pick the lotteries you're playing with carefully. Some companies place absurd rules on their punters that it can get crazy sometimes.
I remember with the U.S. power ball some players had to sue the company behind it after they won in order to claim their winnings because the company claimed that since they purchased the tickets while traveling out of their original state, they weren't eligible. Even with lotteries where your chances to win are very low, the companies hosting the games will often try to cheat players with weird shenanigans.

It is possible to forget especially if you are hopping from one lottery shop to another. You can easily recall if you are only buying tickets occasionally. But if you are a regular lotto bettor, that would be hard if and only if, you are buying in various outlets. This is a hard lesson for any bettor who won his ticket. Remember, if you are spending such amount to buy the ticket, then, deep inside, you have the interest of winning. So you need to bear in mind the basic requirements needed to claim such winnings.

The fact they even asked leads me to believe that someone likely complained about a theft of their ticket and this is the result.
I don’t think that’s the reason because from what I read in the article it states that - lottery tickets that won up to a $1,000 dollar should be able to identify where they bought it from, if it was a case of theft then the identification process would have been implemented in all winning tickets and not just to a specific amount won.

I have heard of situations like this severally but all ended where the customers are awarded with the price. I can remember vividly that one of the occasions the gambler was able to identify where he staked the bet and the owner ot the bet shop assisted him to get his wins.
Most times casinos/bet companies usually don't want to give out wins to their customers especially when it's huge but at least the dude got his wins, he would have been robbed for his right for just his ticket meanwhile it has lasted for over 6 months they don't expect him to remember everything. Maybe for those of us who gamble alot and don't really care about tickets would see this as warning, thanks to the media for helping out.

The faintest pen is sharper than the sharpest memory, this situation would simply have been avoided if the man had simply written down on a separate dairy where and when the ticket was gotten from, as it is not also advisable to write on the lottery ticket or maybe just kept receipts. It is easy to say that the man should have written down the location of where he purchased the tickets. But is the what all lottery ticket buyers do? Maybe in an ideal world. We don't do this because we buy not because we think our tickets will be the winning ticket but just to test our fate. I presume that he was not properly informed about the requirements to claim a lottery win, because if he was informed, he would have known that the where are when the ticket was purchased are likely questions to be asked when you want to claim your lottery win, and he would have detailed them. This is crazy. Well they should put some unique identifiers on the tickets so that by mere looking at the identifiers they can tell which store sold it and save their customers from such a stressful situation.

Not a big lottery person but my mom and some older folks in my fam are lol -- yeah, they bet on the good ol OTC shops
Considering their ages, 6 months would be too long to remember the shop exactly. I do think they could try to narrow down the locations as they're mostly shops they regularly go with.
I do get the interview questions they're asking but the process needs to be streamlined. Perhaps start recording basic data for each ticket? from I read, they're already recording data from those who bet online. Or these prerequisites needs to be reiterated on the ticket.

I noticed on the news that a man won a lottery and when he arrived to claim his prize, he was requested to state or provide information about where he purchased the lottery ticket, which he couldn't do because he didn't know where he obtained it. It drew my interest, and I wondered if forum users could still tell where they purchased all of their lottery tickets in the previous six months (For those who still engage if physical tickets).
If you’re interested in the news you can read it here: https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-man-can-t-collect-lottery-prize-after-he-forgets-where-he-bought-ticket-1.6924708I don't know what the tickets are like out there. However, don't they have the location where they were issued printed on the ticket itself? Or are you talking about those pre-made tickets that are resold in various places? Like scratch cards, for example. Here in Brazil, only lottery outlets, regulated by the federal government, can sell and issue lottery tickets. Even scratch cards can only be purchased in this type of establishment. I've never seen this type of requirement here, the most they ask for is an official document with a photo and if the value of the prize is very significant, then you need to schedule an appointment at a bank branch to receive the value of the prize.

I think that the point of contention here, whether he purchased it from legitimate lottery shop or not. But it doesn't make sense though, how can someone is selling a fly by night lottery ticket specially in a top tier nation like Canada? But in any case, they've already paid the winner already as per the article and thanks to it being covered by media and so they are somewhat "forced" to pay it right away. And probably lesson for us to know where we buy our ticket, just in case it will be questioned specially if you hit the jackpot worth more than a million.

When we have subscribed to the place where we usually buy lottery tickets, we should remember where we bought them, regardless of how long ago we bought them, because we bought the lottery tickets only a few months, not many years. Even years of memory if we usually go to a place that we often visit, we can remember, if he really is the owner of the ticket, he can visit various places where he usually buys lottery tickets to see data information about his purchases, of course in each of these places there is information about him who really bought the ticket because the winnings no have which is small and the casino certainly also needs the purchase data so that users can claim their prizes.
As a concern for other people who gamble, they should always remember the place where they gamble so that incidents like this don't happen again. And the most important point is that when gamblers have finished buying lottery tickets, they must keep the tickets and do not omit it before the winner is announced.
