Fine him, yes by all means but take the shop off him. ffs would you buy a lottery ticket from there?. They can no longer be trusted in there profession make an example of them and show every shop keeper in the Land that this will not be tolerated.

He looks a dodgy fooker, deport him after his sentence

Double check your tickets from now on. Before you go to any shop, and don't be fobbed off by this new con that is going about with rogue shopkeepers.

Ive seen it in a shop round here the older folks hand their tickets to the shop owner and say can you check if it's a winner please the shop keeper says no sorry andd keeps the ticket. Whos to say if it really was or wasnt a winner.

That is why sargie you need to look in your local paper for lottery results or ask a reliable member of your family or a friend to check your ticket first. Be very wary guys. Advice for our older members TAKE SOMEONE TO THE SHOP WITH YOU. they are out there just waiting to pounce on your expense.
