PSA: Don't use a stolen credit card to purchase a lottery ticket
Kind of like getting kicked in the balls, a woman in southern Oregon is finding out the hard way that a winning lottery ticket, worth about $1 million, in her possession is not legally hers after authorities found out that the ticket was
purchased with a stolen credit card
. To compound her troubles, she now faces several theft-related, forgery and methamphetamine charges to boot.
After visiting the Oregon Lottery headquarters in Salem, the woman left with an annual installment worth about $33,500 (the $1 million is to be paid off in yearly installments for 20 years) which the police failed to turn up after serving a search warrant at her home.
Without a doubt, Christina Goodenow you are today's
dumbass
! Congratulations, I hope the
Oregon Lottery commission
uses the rest of what used to be your winnings for a nobler cause. Perhaps 20 school districts in that area could use an extra $33,500 dollars this year.
