(NEW YORK POST) – A Florida woman says she was forced to forfeit her lotto prize after the US Postal Service lost her winning ticket in the mail.
Sue Burgess, of Hernando County, said she was thrilled to discover earlier this summer that she snagged $1,000 in the state’s Second Chance Lottery game, news station WFLA.
“I was elated. It was like winning a million dollars to me,” Burgess told the outlet.
