Guardia Civil Issues Practical Guide to Safely Share Lotería de Navidad Tickets

Consumer guidance confirms that documented copies can validate shared-ticket claims.

Overview

  • Valladolid’s Guardia Civil advises creating a messaging group limited to participants, sending a clear photo of the ticket and number, and recording each person’s share.
  • Participants who pay by Bizum or bank transfer should keep and share payment receipts as proof of contribution.
  • Experts cited by national press say a photocopy or WhatsApp image can support collection if it shows the depositary’s identity, the participants and each stake.
  • Winners are urged to secure the original ticket and verify prizes through Loterías y Apuestas del Estado or a point of sale before taking further steps.
  • Suspected theft of a décimo can be reported through the Guardia Civil’s electronic headquarters portal.
