The CT Lottery's policy on announcing winners is designed to "protect" them from potential scams.
For years, the CT Lottery policy had been to show the full names of all those who cashed in tickets worth $10,000 or more as a matter of public record. It then went to winners having the option of applying for anonymity. Then, the CT Lottery included just first names and last initials while keeping the anonymity option available.
Now, it's complete anonymity unless there is consent.
