Powerball lottery: A man is claiming to have won and wants to share it…

JOE

Learning of lottery winners is always rather depressing – especially when you’ve bought a ticket and nothing. Even more so in January.

The largest lottery jackpot in the world was won in the US last night – and this man is claiming on Twitter he’s got one of the winning tickets.

Erik Bragg is claiming he has won the jackpot and is offering to share his wealth around the world – in return for a retweet. Hmmmm…

Let’s face it, the image has probably been photoshopped with Erik hoping it for some viral action.

But given the state of our bank accounts, what have we got to lose? That’s right. F*ck all.

Couldn’t look more fake, really.
