Lotto 'win' is unlucky for couple

A couple found a lottery ticket in the supermarket. Took it home and amazingly the numbers came up. £30k and had spent 15k of the winnings. The person who the ticket belonged to contacted the police and through the courts was given the remainder money. So now the couple who found the ticket have a criminal record.

Not sure if I agree with this. I would be hurt if my ticket went missing, but Camelot should have clear rule on lost tickets. After all you only get 180 days to make a claim. I doubt this will set any example because, in the current climate people are desperate to get rid of debt and live the good life.

What do you think? What would you do if you found the ticket and the numbers came up? Click the link below for more on this story.
