Maybe they view 'Scratchit!' the same as the olden days' 'Tikam' where many of us buy from the provision shops?
No way to prevent under-18s from buying 'self-service' lottery tickets
This Scratchit! ticket dispensing machine, which is available at various locations across Singapore, might become a cause for underage gambling, says STOMPer Daniel.
Daniel is curious as to how Singapore Pools is going to carry out checks on consumers of the new self-service ticket machine.
If no checks are in place, it would be very easy for children and young people under the age of 18 to buy a Scratchit! ticket.
In an email dated August 20, STOMPer Daniel says:
“Singapore Pools recently introduced the Scratchit! ticket dispensing machine, which is available at many locations.
“Just how do they ensure that children and kids under 18 cannot buy them?”
