Lao officials are rigging the country’s state-run lottery system in order to avoid large pay-outs, sources tell RFA’s Lao service. They are changing winning numbers to avoid paying out large sums of money, the sources say. In one case on Oct. 14 this year, the number 509 was shown as a winner but it later disappeared from tickets sold throughout the day of the drawing. The same problem happened again on Nov. 15.

A convicted felon in Laos is suspected of operating a lottery scam that sucks millions of dollars from unsuspecting victims. The scheme is alleged to have been operated by a man known as the “Lotto King.” He was arrested in June and charged with fraud and illegally selling lottery tickets.
The company that operates the Laos state lottery is a subsidiary of GTech Corporation, an American company that manages 70% of the worldwide online and mobile scratchcard business.

The legal status of gambling in Laos is a little complicated. While it is considered to be illegal in the country, there are a few Special Economic Zones that allow casinos to operate. These zones are leased out by the government to boost foreign trade. There are currently three land-based casinos in the country. However, Laos citizens can gamble online at numerous offshore casinos without fear of being caught. In addition, players can also buy lottery tickets at local convenience stores. This is a convenient option for those who cannot afford to travel far to purchase tickets.
