You may have heard the phrase, “you cannot win a lottery if you don’t buy a ticket.” While that is true, the pandemic prompted a Lottery that requires no purchase and receiving a vaccine automatically qualifies individuals to participate in auto-enrolled opportunities to win money, scholarships, and other generous prizes. Almost a dozen states in America are rewarding the vaccinated in exchange for a quick jab, and many of those in need have had their lives changed forever. 

People often take things that don’t belong to them and don’t get caught. Perhaps you can get away with sneaking a snickers bar out of a grocery store or loot change from someone’s unlocked vehicle without ever getting noticed. And even if a security guard notices you pocket a candy bar without paying, chances are you’ll leave with a slap on your wrist. But good luck trying to steal $86K worth of items from a Pharmacy store - you will get busted, and there will be no mercy for such stupidity. 

It’s not just guests that attempt to cheat casinos out of money during various table games - sneaky employees also get caught up in questionable activities at times. Some manage to get away with it, while others test their limits to the point where they begin to feel invincible. Hieu Duc Lam, a former Baccarat dealer at the Sydney’s Star casino in Australia, happens to be one of them as he “reaches for the stars” and gets caught cheating his workplace out of almost $500,000. 

39-year-old Chris Bilham is boldly speaking out on the topic of gambling addiction, as he struggled with it for five years. At the age of 30, he decided to take a chance and bet money on a football match on an app he had downloaded. Little did he know that wasn’t going to be the last, and he went down a spiral of a destructive gambling addiction that left him with a £100,000 debt and excruciating suicidal thoughts.  

If you win money on a Lottery ticket, you best sign your name on it or hold on to it tightly until you do. It’s better not to go announcing it to the whole either before cashing it. But what do you do if a store clerk is the one trying to cheat you out of your winnings? A woman from Boston serves as an excellent example of what to do in that situation.
