Elara Morgan's face turned pale. 'Has a criminal gang targeted me?'
'What am I going to do?'
'Should I not claim the prize?'
'No! My family is waiting for this money to pay off debts, and Rina is waiting for this money for her surgery.'
"Don't worry, we're not asking you to give up the lottery ticket." Seeing Elara Morgan's pleading gaze, Sean Hughes patted the back of her hand and said, "We just need to do this in a safer way.
We'll go with you when you claim the prize. You have to keep the fact that you won a complete secret from everyone. As long as there are no large transactions in your accounts, you're less likely to be targeted.
Some winners can't wait to share the news with their families and ask them to keep it confidential. But with such incredible news, someone always loses control and accidentally leaks it, which is how they get targeted by criminals."
It was a pretext, but not a complete lie.
