Broken Promises

Who can I talk to about this? I plunked down 2 perfectly good dollars on this Mega Millions ticket, and the nice little Indian man behind the counter told me I was going to win. The next morning, as a mere formality, I check my numbers, fully expecting the numbers to match so I could collect my millions. I was even going to give the nice little Indian man behind the counter a couple thousand to show my appreciation.
