FALSE: A Lone Bettor in Qatar wins a 6/42 Jackpot Prize of PCSO, not in Rizal City
TAYTAY, RIZAL -- A lone bettor bagged the PHP12.5M jackpot of a National Lotto 6/42 draw who was recently claimed via the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO). The winning combination matches all the 6 numbers of 6/42 is 18-34-33-39-11-36 for PHP12,537,017.20 (QAR828,827.84).
The ticket was purchased in Taytay town of Rizal but actually, he is originated from overseas online.
Here at OneNETnews, we debunk that the lottery myth have cracked a story code than a faker, in partnership with Tegna Inc. and WPMT-TV’s FOX 43: Central Pennsylvania.
Our sources gathered the following: *PCSO GOV's YouTube Channel and *TheLotter's News Article site
A source tells us to OneNETnews, along with our research team that the lone bettor is actually from Qatar. His odds crushed out and strike it rich for 1 in 5 million.
A lottery agency called TheLotter who was first discovered personally last February 2022 after one employee bought a regular ticket to be relayed in Rizal City and forward thru the said company itself to a lone bettor.
Qatari bettor can claim the check at the PCSO main office in Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong at the National Capital Region in our country upon presentation of the winning ticket and 2 government-issued identification cards. Lotto winnings of more than PHP10,000 (QAR661.10) shall be subject to a 20% tax under the Republic Act #10963 or the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law of 2017. Prizes not claimed within a year shall be automatically forfeited and goes into charity projects instead, as the Philippine News Agency mistakenly reported.
So in conclusion, it is misleading and unacceptable. NO. The claims of Rizaleño bettor secretly disguised overseas as a Qatari national.
The jackpot prize of 6/42 National Lottery draw of PCSO has now been reset to nearly PHP6M. Qatar officials have congratulated to him in making history of a Philippine lottery draws online.
