Yes, you read that accurately.

If I buy several lottery tickets and then leave my account dormant for a long time, say at least 6 months, and my ticket wins the jackpot during that time.
Will anything happen to my prize money? Will the casino refund my money because I never claimed any of the rewards?

It's just a thought I've had for a while and decided to ask here in the community.

Okay lets put up some example about some known lotteries like "Powerball".
They do have this kind of rule when it comes to claiming prizes.

Ticket expiration dates typically vary from 90 days to one year form the draw date depending on the selling jurisdiction, per the Mega Millions and Powerball websites. Often, the expiration date is listed on the back of each ticket.

So if we do speak about online lotteries or casinos then the best approach or thing to be done if there's no mentioning about prize expiration then
it would be wise that you should really be asking on the support or team directly so that everything would really be clarified out.
