They would have never figured this out had the idiot just had someone else claim the 16.5M prize, or simply picked a state that allows winners to be anonymous.

I wonder why he tried to go through lawyer and offshore companies this time, rather than have a friend claim the ticket.

I wonder if he found out they had video recording of the person buying the ticket.

Which makes me wonder - did he do that as well? Who else might have been using this hack (in states no in addition to Tipton?
