All lottery equipment was removed and game terminals were turned off at each store. The contract suspension of these retailers is temporary while the Florida Lottery continues its investigation. If the investigation findings show that a crime has taken place, the Florida Lottery will terminate the retailer's contract, and owners or employees of the stores could face criminal charges.

The Florida Lottery will not tolerate fraudulent activity by our players or retailers. Moving forward, the Lottery will publicize retailer suspensions through press releases and on the Lottery's website. These actions are part of the Lottery's on-going effort to heighten awareness of what we do as an organization to combat illegal activity. The Florida Lottery Division of Security and the Lottery's Inspector General will continue the investigation of these retailers, as part of our Retailer Integrity Program.
