Through his online gambling activities, this unsuspecting man, who wishes to remain anonymous, unknowingly accumulated entries in the state second chance lottery.

Why did you discard the email?

He originally dismissed the email notification of his win as a fraud, as he found it difficult to believe that he could have won such a large sum without even knowing he was playing. However, after verifying the legitimacy of the message, he was overcome with disbelief and emotion.

What did the Lottery company say?

According to the Michigan Lottery, the 67-year-old player, who preferred to remain anonymous, won $416,322 in a random drawing on October 11. He qualified for the drawing by playing the eligible BIG CA$H Second Chance Jackpot games online.

“I play a lot online, but I had no idea I was earning tickets to a second chance drawing by playing certain games,” the player told me. “I received an email from the Michigan Lottery stating that I had won a second chance prize of $416,322 and assumed it was a scam because I had not participated in any drawings.”
