The 48-year-old grandmother who submitted he torn lottery ticket to Camelot for verification has been exposed as a liar and a fraud.
National Lottery operator, Camelot, has ruled her out as the mystery winner. The lady due to stand trial next month for theft was trying her luck but has got caught out. Friends and family of the German had expressed cynicism with respect her claims, and their suspicions have finally been confirmed.
Although CCTV footage of the shop where she bought the ticket was offered to Camelot, the offer was never taken up because Camelot had ruled her out from the outset.
Her unwise stunt has brought further bad publicity to the German national following revelations that she faces trial for two counts of theft by distract a resident at a property.
Miss Hinte’s claims were undermined further by the disclosure that s
he faces a trial on suspicion of theft. The offences are said to have taken place in January last year when Miss Hinte is accused of stealing a handbag from a home by distracting the resident. Dodgy as they come, this lady at nearly 50 lacks the basic intelligence to know that you cannot earn £33m by trying a dumb scam like this.

Miss Hinte’s initial claim was that she put the ticket in her jeans’ pocket and then washed them in the machine by accident. This according to her bogey story, caused the barcode and date to disappear. Extreme embarrassment awaits this daft woman who has since gone on facebook to say
“Not once have I said I have the winning ticket. The ticket did have the winning numbers on it. Camelot will do the checks so as it stands nobody knows if it’s the winner”. She is further exposed for appearing on a dating website describing herself as a nurse who hopes to return to university to study for a degree in emergency hospital care allowing her to “qualifie” [sic] as a paramedic, but a record of her on medical registers as a nurse is yet to be seen.
National Lottery bosses have rigid rules in place with respect claims for lottery tickets. Winners have 180 days to come forward. Those without tickets have 30 days to lodge a claim in writing. Only after 180 days, can Camelot then consider awarding the money to a person without an actual ticket. Proof would include being able to tell Camelot exactly where and when a ticket was bought.
A Camelot spokesperson confirmed: ”we have the discretion to pay prizes in respect of lost, stolen, destroyed or damaged National Lottery tickets only if the player has submitted a claim in writing within 30 days of the relevant draw. If the player can provide sufficient evidence, we will investigate and consider the validity of the claim. Such evidence may include where and when the ticket was bought, how the numbers were chosen (e.g. Lucky Dip or chosen numbers), how many lines played and other relevant information. If we subsequently determine that the claim is valid, we then have the discretion to pay the prize 180 days after the draw”. ”We still urge people to contact us if they think they are winners of the missing ticket, the spokesperson added.
