A spokesperson for the Florida Lottery told WFLA in an email that the
"Burgess' claim was never received by the Florida Lottery." The email
also including tracking information which showed the package status as
"in transit," WFLA reports.
The Florida Lottery and U.S. Postal Service did not immediately respond
to CBS News' request for comment.In a statement to WFLA, a postal
service spokesman said the post office is investigating. The Postal
Service sent a statement to WFLA saying it "strives to always provide
the best possible service to our customers."
"We apologize to this specific customer for any inconvenience they may
have experienced," the statement continues. "In this specific instance,
we are continuing to work with the lottery office to confirm receipt of
the mailpiece."
While the lottery states Burgess is too late to turn in her ticket — and
another winner received her $1,000 — the Florida Lottery is willing to
bend the rules, WFLA reports. If the package shows up postmarked prior
to the original expiration date, she will get her prize, the lottery
told WFLA.
