Lottery syndicate want winnings frozen

A Tattslotto syndicate that suspects a colleague pocketed a $16.7 million Powerball win may seek to freeze the funds as they await proof of whether the ticket was purchased with their money. The group of 14 Geelong transport workers have taken their concerns to the Victorian Supreme Court, which on Thursday ordered Tattslotto to hand over details of the winner’s identity and details of how he paid for the ticket.
