I'm surprised someone hasn't yet offered a service to buy people's numbers for PowerBall or other state lottery.
e.g.
http://www.powerball.comEven with a pre-signed contract, he would probably fight it, he will have (currently: $40 Million ) to hire Lawyers, you will have a claim and maybe a lawyer.
I had thought of that and was supposing the problem could be resolved by mailing out the tickets purchased before the day that the lottery is drawn. Then I think of all the holes in that strategy as well and now I know why nobody yet offers a service to buy people's numbers for PowerBall (in addition to the obvious one where it probably isn't something that be done legally.)
