Investigation and Charges
A Toronto man faces charges after allegedly keeping a $1-million Lotto Max jackpot from a group play. The case began when the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) received multiple claims indicating that the winning ticket might have been purchased as part of a group arrangement.
According to OLG officials, their review of the claims raised serious concerns that the payout did not properly reflect the group’s participation. Following this, authorities opened a formal investigation.
Details of the Case
Police have charged the man with fraud and related offences. The lottery organization emphasized that group play disputes can arise when one member claims a shared win as personal, and it encourages participants to document contributions and agreements to avoid misunderstandings.
"The charges came after the OLG received claims suggesting the winnings may have resulted from a group play arrangement."
The accused is expected to appear in court, and the investigation remains ongoing.
