Susanne Hint, the woman dubbed the Lotto Gan, has died following a Cardiac arrest at her home in Borrowdale drive, Worcester.
Hint was thrust in the limelight last year when she claimed to have won half of the 66m jackpot last year.She claimed her faded ticket was caused by her accidentally putting it in the wash, thereby ruining the date and the bar code . After she submitted the ticket to Camelot, it emerged the ticket was a fake.
Hint was then humiliated in the British press, as friends and associates came out to say she had behaved this way in the past. The 49 year old lived a fairly comfortable life for a woman on benefits, sparking public outcry when it became know that she had installed a tub in her bath worth 1,000 pounds. Living off a 25k a year pay off to sustain her for being signed off work, Hint owned a 20,000 Vauxhall Astra GTC provided under the Government’s motability scheme.
The German born woman had suffered a heart condition which ultimately facilitated a more comfortable life than she would otherwise have got. However, a pending court case at the time had caused her much stress and exacerbated her heart condition. Hint was charged with stealing an x box play station from a man she met on a dating app. Her former boyfriend worsened her reputation when he revealed to the Mirror that Hint was a scratchcard addict and a loan shark debtor. .Lotto loser Susanne Hinte had a real scratchcard obsession.
He claimed she played scratch cards every day in the hope of winning big.
Mr.Payne said her dream was to win the lottery, adding that she was an attention seeker who liked to dress outrageously and reveal her belly and bra”. The revelations must have battered her emotions irreversibly, sparking a build up of heightened stress on her heart. Whatever reason her relationship with her boyfriend failed would have added to her stress especially where she is convinced he was at fault. Add to that the fact Ms Hint did not get any chance to defend her ex boyfriend’s allegations(nobody would have listened to a fraud), one can see how her heart condition must have gradually deteriorated between January 2016 and August 2017. The eye of media.com will give Ms Hint the little justice she may deserve, by saying we never ot to know the role her boyfriend played in their relationship breakdown, although what we knew about Ms.Hint wasn’t very good.
