Or. Admin. Code § 177-098-0030 - Prize Claims
(1) General: A ticket, subject to the
validation requirements set forth in these rules and OAR 177-070-0035, is the
only proof of a game play or plays and the submission of a winning ticket to
the Lottery or an authorized retailer as required by these rules is the sole
method of claiming a prize or prizes, except that a Jackpot Prize (and a Match
5 prize) must be claimed in person at Lottery Headquarters or at a Lottery
Branch, unless the ticket specifies that it must be claimed at Lottery
Headquarters. A play slip, paper receipt, or printed summation of a play
printed by a terminal which is not a ticket has no pecuniary or prize value and
does not constitute evidence of ticket purchase or of numbers
selected.
(2) Prize Claims: Mega
Millions prize claim procedures are governed by the administrative rules of the
Oregon State Lottery. MUSL and the selling lotteries are not responsible for
Mega Millions prizes that are not claimed following the proper procedures as
determined by the Director.
