There's a display on the top of the lottery terminals that shows the result of the scanned ticket. Everyone should be watching that when a store clerk checks your ticket. The clerk could get in big trouble if he tries to deceive you and it would probably all be captured on camera.
I have heard of a clerk telling an elderly person they had won $100, when they actually won $10,000. The clerk got caught.
