MA Lottery 17+

Ever since the lottery made the lottery app available to its VIP members, as well as others. I am able to check my lottery tickets for winners that I may have missed, and when a ticket turns out to be a winner, the app will allow me to see exactly how much you won on that ticket. If you go to a store to play your numbers, any store that sells lottery tickets have a scanner machine that allows people to scan there lottery tickets as well as all scratch tickets, But doesn’t let you know exactly how much that ticket won. Also should you have a winning ticket over $600 or up to $5,000, you can claim your ticket on the application and your winnings minus state tax is then deposited into your bank account, usually within couple weeks. A lot better than dragging myself to the Lottery in Dorchester, down street from South Boston’s Castle Island and their beach.

Bought a poker ticket and the year on the back is 2015, that’s not right. Theirs hardly any winners in any of your tickets and the saddest thing about the lottery is the $10 ticket 10x $2.00 come on, it’s all the time to, I think your making enough money u can make it $5.00 or $10. I know your just gonna say then don’t play, maybe I won’t, machine has been down all day, what’s the problem! Oh and you also say if you participate in 2nd drawings you can only win once in one drawing, I don’t think so I see the same names, same city, so that’s a lie.

Thanks for responding to me. You wrote the following: "We require a social security number to be provided so that we may verify the age and identity of all players. This information is essential to our validation process and to protect the security of player accounts."

I would like the App to have the capabilities of scanning tickets at home to determent winning tickets JUST like at the store. I shouldn’t need to log-in to check my numbers.

I understand that if I have a winner you need my SSN, but just to check my numbers!!!! Haven’t you seen all the stories of systems getting hacked! Your app can have two tiers, one for players who trust you and give you all the info, and another for those who want to just check their numbers. If I have a big winner you’re welcome to get all the info you need at your offices.
