Publisher's Notebook: Mystery Baghdad Kurd takes Oregon for cool $6.4 million

According to reports out of Oregon’s Lottery headquarters, an Iraqi Kurd from Baghdad recently won a $6.4 million Megabucks jackpot with a ticket he bought online from a London-based lottery website. Lottery officials won’t disclose the man’s identity because he convinced them that if people back in Baghdad knew he was coming home witha saya $3 million after taxesa they’d probably kidnap his family and make him hand it over.
