Misaligned Fruit Smash Scratch Cards Could Void Winnings

What would it be like to plunk down a few dollars for a scratch-based lottery game and win over $100,000? Everyone who plays scratch games dreams of this moment when all of those 'sorry, try again' cards finally pay off by hitting the big one.

Brampton, Ontario resident Thomas Noftall sure thought his winning moment had arrived. He purchased 4 Fruit Smash scratch cards and hit the jackpot. Not just on one card, but all 4 cards came up winners worth a grand total of $135,000. Or so Thomas thought. When he went to claim his prizes, the Ontario Lottery officials told him that the tickets were misprinted and were part of an 1100 ticket batch that had been recalled. Ontario Lottery offiicials further informed him that he will likely get nothing due to a fine-print clause in their legal disclaimer.

Can you imagine?
