Bariloche lottery winner rumors debunked by officials

Official lottery agencies in Río Negro have debunked rumors regarding a supposed Quini 6 jackpot winner in Bariloche. The confusion began after reports circulated on social media and through local news suggesting a resident had won a significant prize, possibly one that had not yet been claimed.

Lille Enevoldsen, head of an official agency, clarified that the misinformation stemmed from a new sub-agency misinterpreting lottery codes following the recent draw. While a winner was indeed recorded within the province of Río Negro, the winning bet was not placed in Bariloche.

Authorities emphasized that for prizes exceeding 3.5 million pesos, winners must submit a sworn statement to claim funds. Officials urged the public to verify lottery results through official channels to avoid the spread of unfounded speculation.
