A greedy 42-year-old store clerk named Crystelle Yvette Baton, who worked in a Winn-Dixie liquors store in Fort Myers, Florida, planned to keep some lottery winnings for herself. She tried to use a trick to take earnings from the winning ticket but ended up choosing the wrong customer to try it out on, and this eventually backfired on her.
