A woman in Virginia thought she won $20,000 on her lotto scratch off ticket but she wasn't rewarded the money. CNN's Anderson Cooper explains why not.

Not really. It is like if a slot machine malfunctions at a casino. There are signs at casinos that say something on the lines of "jackpots subject to machine verification. Malfunctions voids all free plays/pays". Same thing applies with scratch offs. The amount shown doesnt mean anything. The barcode matters. Maybe there was a bad batch in manufactoring and more winning tickets came out

And from going on the follow up report from Fox from the investigation into the matter by the VA Lottery, they claim she admitted to cutting the tickets in the wrong spot and yes... She tried to scam the VA Lottery. The only ones she fooled was CNN because they totally BLOW at doing any research before reporting. They only give the side of the story THEY want to give without possible views of the other side. I've seen people buy multiple tickets and sometimes the whole pack. The reason for the "fine print" is for people like this who think they can "scam" the system... If you don't have the brains to clearly see the dotted lines and know they mark from one ticket to the next, you shouldn't be playing the lotto! And it isn't government funding.

Correct, at the most she should get her money back for the cost of the ticket since it was invalid to begin with, but she did not win - hence she shouldn't be able to collect the $20,000. In fact, there is no reason to believe that any tickets from the roll that hers came from won $20,000 and the lottery commission could verify if that is the case. If the roll contained no winners of $20,000 then no one was cheated - but the commission should refund any tickets brought forth that contain the same error. You must allow for them to reimburse you for their mistake before any legal action can be given serious thought... this is just another story of self-entitlement due to emotional distress. E.g. just because someone feels cheated doesn't mean they were. ktla.com/2015/09/09/woman-who-claimed-she-won-20000-from-virginia-lottery-scratcher-could-now-face-fraud-charges/

When they investigated this, they discovered she has attempted stuff like this in her past. For example she admitted to taping winning numbers from one ticket to another in an attempt to pass it as a $52 winner. Clearly she is a con artist who likely tore it herself.

This is why you purchase your ticket at a convenience store. Where an actual person will hand you the card. Surprise she didn’t realize the numbers weren’t on the top of the card. She should have common sense to realize, the winning numbers never appear on the very bottom of a scratch-off card. Only way to figure out if you won anything is the serial number you scratch off. If I got a scratch ticket from a machine like that looked like her’s. Immediately reporting to the employee, how their scratch ticket machine is not cutting on the perforated lines (separating each ticket equally). Bet the person who purchased a card before he, might have thought they won money on the scratch off. Same goes for the person, who bought after her.

I am sorry but I disagree with this it is a clear misprint on this ticket the numbers were for the next ticket not for the ticket she scratched off. What fool thinks the winning numbers are on the bottom of the ticket especially when you can see the line where you cut the ticket off of the roll before the numbers you scratch off. It is plainly seen that those numbers were for the ticket after her ticket and the winning numbers for her ticket wasn't going to be a 16.

This principle extends, somewhat, to 'errors' or 'malfunctions' which deny a slot machine-playing 'winner' their jackpot. My late-fiancée experienced something similar at a brand new casino near our hometown in December of 2006. After winning a modest jackpot that required my sweetheart to be paid by hand the floor manager on duty exclaimed, "No, no, no, no, no!" (five noes, it's stayed in memory) as if this wasn't supposed to happen. Then my fiancée waited for over an hour while the unexplained dispute was ironed out and she received her winnings finally. As a consolation my sweetheart did get a six month pass to the casino's new buffet.

David hunter no your misinterpreting the way it was cut...... the 11 and 16 at the bottom are her winning numbers.... meaning if any of her numbers match the 11 or 16, it means she is a winner..... which clearly she has a 16 smack dab in the middle of the ticket.... the error occurred with the placement of the 2 winning numbers (the 11 and the 16) .... on her ticket, they are on the bottoms, but in a normal ticket they are at the top. What happened was the matching or store ripped off the ticket, inadvertently ripping off her winning numbers that were at the top (they are missing at the top) and so, this woman only had the 2 winning numbers at the bottom to compare too...... this was totally the machines fault here. Essentially, she doesn’t have any winning numbers to scratch, as hers were ripped off with the previous ticket.... basically, the machine was registering the winning numbers to be on the bottom, instead of the top...... so everyone who bought a ticket from this specific roll had this same thing happen..... they were given winning numbers that belonged to the next ticket.
