Connecticut Lottery Draws Attention Of State Regulators

State regulators are now taking a closer look at the Connecticut Lottery Corporation after they cite ‘many incidents’ tied to a new gaming system. The state Department of Consumer Protection is investigating technical malfunctions, especially with regard to mobile phone lottery wagering, connected to a new Las Vegas-based contractor. Some cases involve customers with both winning and losing tickets who may have experienced misleading or confusing messages when scanning a ticket themselves or when presenting a ticket to a cashier.
