Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

Recently was coming back to where I worked at and noticed a box come off a truck and almost ran over .The box contained 15 unopened lottry tickets with 1 to 20 dollar increments. I was shocked to find and careful to pickup and thought maybe my lucky day. Not knowing what resulted of this or what to do? I did what anyone would do I looked at address and called number and told saleem what happened and everything and the next day the lotto hq. I RECIEVED nothing not even a thanks for risking my life and keeping someone from ripping him off and not getting his tickets. I came to a decision of how busy and greedy these people were to thank a good semaritan and someone honest enough to care about someonelse besides themselves. Here is a amazing thought these tickets were at retail face value at least 5,000 $ worth of tickets. To think their logo is today could be the day is completely meaninlgless!I got a picture to remind me of what my good fortune could have been and to no thanks to them a good honest player but not satisfied with results from this happening.You would think with all the second chance drawings and other entries I would have been copensated but nothing. Even a casino has the class to honer members for good deeds or free play for rewards. This tells me alot of how powerful and greedy your corporation is and lack of ethics.

Good Samaritans don't expect a reward

If you were truly being a "good samaritan" then you did it NOT expecting a reward...so no RipOff, well at least from them.

By the way had you not called, when the tickets didn't reach their destination they would have been voided by a few simple keystrokes of a computer.  Where anyone who tried to cash any possible winning ticket would get nothing, and in fact if they tried to submit them for some "second chance" drawing would probably have been arrested for receiving stolen goods.

Let me ask you this just out of curriosity, how much of a "thank you" would have been sufficent?  $10, $20, 10%($500), or perhaps some other amount.

 So YOU need to be thanked for doing the right thing?? That's EXTERNAL VALIDATION!!!! Doing the right thing even if someone doesn't thank you IS its own reward. Sorry, but poor manners IS NOT a ripoff. If YOU need someone to thank YOU everytime YOU do something, I would be looking at myself were I you. Sometimes people are too busy or it just slips their mind to be honest. We live in a society of selfish spoiled consumers who EXPECT things to go their way. THAT is the behavour YOU are demonstrating. Good deeds SHOULD NEVER require a THANK YOU because doing that deed is thanks enough. To expect ANYONE to be as polite as YOU only shows that YOU expect to be treated BETTER. It was a good deed and I applaud YOUR honesty!!! But don't expect others to be as polite as YOU are!! THEY may not have had the advantages YOU have had or the adversity that YOU have encountered that has made YOU so polite. If anything YOU get to pat yourself on the back. YOU saved what roughly 5k in loss for the company it was delivered to. YOU did the right thing. YOUR thank you is that YOU get to sleep BETTER at night KNOWING that YOU have done the right thing even though it would have been in YOUR best interests to just keep the lottery cards. It MAY have been in your best interest, but the up side is THIS......YOU ARE A HONEST PERSON AND NOT A THIEF!!!!!! YOUR parents should not only be proud of the effort it took to raise you, but they should tell EVERYONE about YOU!! THAT is the only TRUE thanks you would get.
