As more Powerball billion dollar jackpots are coming for the future, more people are excited about playing the jackpot lottery game than ever before. Not only are there more people playing, but there are more scams coming to the surface. There has been an influx of people suing Powerball lottery winners, hoping they can claims some of their winnings and more scams are appearing after someone wins the Powerball jackpot. One of the most common scams is someone claiming that the new millionaire can’t handle all their cash, so they are giving it away freely.

Be wary of the scams, particularly when they surface immediately following a Powerball jackpot win.

The Tennessee winners of the $1.58 billion jackpot were met with a lawsuit by Jonathan Lee Riches, who is notorious for filing more lawsuits than anyone in history.

It’s also common for many rumors to circulate after someone wins the Powerball jackpot. While there are many stories of people who couldn’t handle sudden wealth, not everyone who has won the Powerball jackpot was doomed to a life of failure and misery. Sometimes the rumors spread fast and far across social media networks and many people end up being left confused. For example, with the Jan. 13, Powerball jackpot that climbed to $1.58 billion dollars, there were three winning tickets sold. One was sold in Tennessee, one in California, and the other in Florida. To this date, only the winners in Tennessee have come forward to claim their prize. The California winner, as well as the Florida winner, have yet to come forward. If they don’t come to claim their prize within 180 days, their winning tickets will expire and the amounts will return to their respective states.

One rumor in particular continues to follow the California winner of the Powerball billion dollar jackpot, even though no one has come forward to claim the prize. According to the rumor, the lottery winner collected his prize in a cash sum, spent millions on cocaine and overdosed while partying with hookers. The rumor then states the unfortunate and very unlucky billion dollar Powerball jackpot winner then died. The truth is that the California winner has not come to claim his or her winning share yet.
