Please Note:
Not unlike economy-related issues many other industries are facing this year, ours too is experiencing some budgetary constraints especially those dealing with staff travel. These constraints are now impacting the attendance at our industry’s planned educational events. We all realize the value and the opportunity NASPL meetings provide, however with the current travel restrictions placed on so many lottery organizations, our attendance for this June's Subcommittee Meeting is projected to be extremely low. Unfortunately the Madison, Wisconsin subcommittee meetings for Warehouse, Legal, Public Relations/Communications and Sales & Marketing has been postponed. The NASPL office will keep the membership posted as to the new dates.
A major part of NASPL’s Education and Training efforts focus on the development of leaders who can move the lottery industry forward and at the same time, accomplish stated goals and objectives for their respective lottery organizations.
The Goal of the Lottery Leadership Seminar is to create a program that will assist lottery personnel in expanding their knowledge of the Lottery Industry while at the same time offering participants actual leadership techniques and skills that can be used both on the job, as well as in their personal lives.
The NASPL Lottery Leadership Seminar invites inspired and committed experts from the ranks of lotteries and the vendor community to raise the bar on sales and revenue growth through innovative projects and creative leadership.
For more information regarding this event, contact the NAPSL office at: 440-466-5630.
SCAM ALERT! NASPL or our member lotteries do not hold drawings or award lottery prizes in through the mail. Illegal scam artists claiming to be affiliated with NASPL, our members and many other organizations are circulating letters claiming to award lottery prizes or unclaimed prize money. Fraudulent cashiers checks are also being sent with these letters. Most of these are coming from Ontario, Canada. THESE ARE ILLEGAL SCAMS!
Do not send the criminals any money or personal information without first investigating the situation fully. Do not trust the phone numbers provided on the check, since these will go to an accomplice in the scam who will tell you the check is good. Look up the actual phone number of the bank or credit union online or through directory assistance and contact their security department directly to ask about the validity of the check. Report this to your local and state authorities.
UPDATE - The latest scam now circulating requires the winner to pay customs duties or taxes to have their prize sent across the Canadian border. The "winner" is eventually contacted by a person claiming to be a Canada customs agent, but they are IMPOSTERS. The phone number provided uses a voice mail message copied from the actual Customs Agency, but will immediately transfer you to the criminals.
Contact Us directly for agencies to report your scam to, or if you require additional information.
There is no legitimate reason why anyone would give you a check or money order and ask you to wire money anywhere in return. Find out more at: FakeChecks.org
