Paula Carias of Morrisville took a chance on a $30 scratch-off ticket and won a $100,000 prize.

Carias bought her lucky 200X The Cash ticket from the Refuel on New Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh. She arrived at lottery headquarters Tuesday to collect her prize and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $71,019.

The 200X The Cash game debuted in March with six top prizes of $5 million and 18 $100,000 prizes. Five $5 million prizes and 13 $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.

Is anyone other than me convinced that more top prize or large amount winning tickets are being intentionally sent to Wake county? They can claim they have no idea where they're being sent, but they do. They also know when and where the fast play jackpot is going to hit.NC Lottery
Hi, Charles! We don't know where winning or nonwinning tickets are - it has to be that way to make it fair for all of our players! Tickets are randomly distributed across the state during our secure printing process, and we don't know where the winners are until a lucky player scratches one off and comes in to claim!

When was the first $5million hit?? I haven't seen a story on it @NCELNC Lottery
Hi, Mary! The first $5 million prize for our 200X The Cash scratch-off was won by Mario Delgado of Winterville, NC earlier this month! You can read the blog story about it here: https://nclottery.com/NewsBlogDetails/2022/5/2/Pitt-County-man-wins-first-5-million-prize-in-scratch-off-game. Hope this helps!
