DC man says he's owed $340 million after incorrect winning Powerball numbers posted
A Washington, D.C. man is suing Powerball for not paying him the $340 million he claims he won after matching numbers during a January 2023 drawing.
Brittany Bailey, the project manager at Taoti, said in court documents that Cheeks' "attempted scheme" is a way to capitalize on an "obvious error" on the D.C. Lottery website. Rather than posting random numbers on a "test website" by Taoti, as intended, they were mistakenly posted Jan. 6 on the D.C. Lottery Website, she said. "First, any ordinary person knows that winning lottery numbers are not posted or advertised in advance; they cannot be because they have not been drawn yet," Bailey said in the court filings. "Second, the list of numbers posted did not include a Powerball number, but simply a blank red ball. These red flags would cause any reasonable person to know that they were not the valid winning numbers for the following day."
Ummm..............the numbers were up before the draw and the Powerball number wasn't even there, yet he thought he won. Yeah ok dude, nice try there buddy
And how about the scumbag lawyer taking his money and convincing him he had a case.
Yeah he just walked into the DC Lottery office thinking he won, yeah right
