A 48 year old lady who claims she washed her jackpot ticket in her jeans is facing trial at Birmingham’s Magistrates court, it has recently been revealed.
Hinte is due to stand trial at Birmingham’s Magistrates court on March 1 after being charged with two counts of dwelling theft.The blond- Susanne Hinte- who has made headlines over her claimed missing prize, has already appeared in court on June 18, 2015, over allegations she stole a purse with money inside from a property in the area. This new revelation will pour scorn on her claim to have lost a lottery ticket worth £33m, though this will not affect Camelot’s judgment in assessing the validity of her claim. Today, a picture of the dodgy looking ticket was published for the first time, and it is yet to be seen if the ticket which looks everything like a looser, barring the correct numbers on them, will make this lady £33m richer.
The date the ticket was purchased is missing from the top right corner which is also torn. None of the codes can be seen, including the Millionaire Raffle number, which is automatically generated when the ticket is purchased and gives the ticket holder the chance to win £1m.
Both security bar codes at the top right and along the bottom have been distorted by the washing machine, if indeed this is a genuine story. Ever since the revelation of an unclaimed prize in Worcester was made public, Camelot have been deluged with calls claiming the unclaimed prize. However, Camelot’s operators are far from stupid and have made clear that the wrong person has no chance of claiming a dime from them.
Camelot and a handful of experts know exactly where the ticket was bought and at what time, but will not reveal any of this information. Family members, friends, and an ex partner of 48 year old Hint have come out to openly discredit her claim to have the missing ticket. It sounds spiteful of them to say the least, because unless you are in the mind of the claimant, you can only speculate on the sincerity of her claim. However, the fact she has been charged for theft does not look good on her credibility for this claim. If she is trying to pull a fast one, she is a brave fool because she will get found out.
Camelot have a number of questions they ask in order to eliminate false claims. They ask the day and time the ticket was purchased, whether it was a lucky dip or a variety of numbers , in other words they do their best to distinguish between potential genuine and fake claimants. There is also the added issue of CCTV cameras which Camelot can also make reference to when necessary. Camelot have made clear that they have discretion to pay out money even to punters who have lost their ticket or had it destroyed. That discretion rests on whether Camelot believe the claimant to be genuine in terms of whether they can definitely confirm the claim to be legitimate. The wait continues for the missing £33m ticket holder, and if indeed it is Miss hint, then boy is she suffering!
