who knows,
they should give you your earnings or send it back so that you can sign it; if they are legit of course
lets just hope.

Hi,
I am a lottery retailer working in a convenience store…
…First of all, ALWAYS make copies of your winners before you send them out to the lottery commission…
Since you did file the paperwork, you will be fine…
…But I suggest to make sure you are fine…
1) Find out WHERE you purchased your ticket. Get the name of the business & address.
2) Go to your state’s lottery website
3) Find contact info for your state’s lottery commission.
4) Contact the lottery commission telling them your situation
Also…if you can’t find your state’s lottery number…you can try this…I live in California and this number works for my state…not sure about your state…
It’s 1-800-LOTTERY
Hope that helps…
