The Government Lottery Office (GLO) is investigating suspected abuse of lottery distribution quotas after some lottery tickets purchased by vendors were allegedly resold to other sellers. The GLO director said the office has repeatedly warned vendors and retailers not to sell tickets to other lottery sellers or brokers. They are bound by their contracts with the GLO to only sell tickets to customers. Maj Gen Chalongrat said if any vendors were found to be involved in re-selling tickets, they would lose their purchase quota for life. The same rule also applies to an arrangement in which vendors or brokers make advance purchases of lottery tickets, according to Maj Gen Chalongrat.
