7. I wonder if winners are required

to have their names published in order to collect.

'Several weeks later, at a ceremony where he was presented with an oversized check, Khan said "Winning the lottery means everything to me." '

I will admit, I have thought (dreamed) about what I would do were I to actually win a sizable sum of money. And I've already decided I would keep the win a secret from everyone, including my family, at least for a period of time. When it came to sharing the money with family, friends, and charities, I would still conceal the total amount I had won. (Not because of them but because of others who might want to take advantage of someone (me) who has a history of being used and taken advantage of.)

Such a sad story. Sounds like it will be almost easy to find a suspect in this case. Who ended up getting the money?
