Connecticut Lotterys New Anonymity Policy: Protecting Winners from Scams and Unwanted AttentionThe Connecticut Lottery has introduced a new policy, effective October 1, 2025, allowing winners of ten thousand dollars or more to remain anonymous unless they grant written consent for their names to be released. This change, driven by Public Act 25-112, aims to shield winners from potential scams and unwanted attention. Recent winners, including a Wolcott resident who claimed one hundred thousand dollars and three Danbury residents who won two million dollars in Mega Millions, have benefited from this enhanced privacy.
