A Michigan man who is 69 years of age who does not want to be identified for privacy reasons played a Michigan Lottery $6,000,000 dollar game when he played the game on Wednesday June 14. The lottery winner who lives in Macomb County played the second chance game by scanning his entry via the Michigan Lottery app. When the lottery winner received an email stating that won $100,000 dollars via an email which he taught the email was a scam artist. The lottery winner then had a chat with his wife and they did find out that he won the $100,000 dollars. The lottery winner will use his lottery winnings to give it to his relatives and pay his bills. Link is upi.com/1791688587185 via @upi

$100,000 is still a $100,000. Hope the man makes good use of his winnings.

@Deepizzaguy true. We've see and heard of stories like that. It is disheartening.

@allen0187 It is heartbreaking to see someone winning a lot of money and then go broke wasting their money on dumb things that they do not need,

I hope so as well since many lottery winners go broke by spending money on items they do not need.

That is what I do as well if I won a huge lottery prize myself.

I can’t help pity how much the government will take out for taxes.

That is true since the taxpayer money usually goes to waste.

Smart man. I wouldn't want to be identified if I got lucky enough to win it big either.

That is true since many lottery winners will encounter strangers who will ask them for money based on hard luck stories.
