Hoosier Lottery halts Space Invaders ticket sales after payout errors
The Hoosier Lottery halted sales of its $5 Space Invaders Cash Invasion scratch-off game after a technical issue led a player to believe he had won $100,000, the report said. Lottery officials told the player his actual prize was $20; another player reportedly encountered a similar error involving a supposed $2,500 win.
The sales halt and disputed prizes raise operational and player-claims issues for the lottery’s affected game.
