The Texas Lottery winnings being questioned have centered on the idea of bulk purchases of tickets through courier services.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation of the Texas Lottery, including two “possibly unlawful” winnings that involved the purchase of bulk lottery tickets and the use of third-party courier services.

The office will specifically look at the process and two instances involving bulk lottery purchases with the help of third-party courier services. Courier services allow customers to order tickets online or through an app.

AG Ken Paxton’s office joins two other investigations by state officials into the commission as one service suspends operations due to the agency’s ban.

Two of the biggest lottery jackpots in Texas history are under widening investigations over claims that the winners may have benefitted from more than good luck.

Lawmakers and state authorities are scrutinizing the Texas Lottery after online ticketing systems may have given an unfair advantage to winners of two multimillion-dollar jackpots. Why it matters: Attorney General Ken Paxton on Wednesday opened an investigation into two "suspicious and possibly unlawful" lotto wins by third-party courier services.

The State of Texas is reviewing two lottery wins. A recent $83 million jackpot involved a third-party courier named Jackpocket.
