I'll open myself up to scorn by admitting that I buy these things often. You don't get to select your tickets in NY, they are ripped off one at a time on a roll that is in a locked container.

The most obvious vulnerability here is clerks and convenience store owners who unroll the tickets and hand out the loser tickets to customers. That risk is mitigated by the craziness of lotto addicts, who won't accept a ticket that doesn't come off of the roll.




Consider applying for YC's W25 batch! Applications are open till Nov 12.
