"Powerball Winner's Fight for Anonymity Inspires Change"

Cristy Davis, a Michigan Powerball winner who won a $70 million jackpot in 2020, is fighting for the identities of lottery winners to be kept a secret after her own identity was stolen and used in social media scams. Davis's highly publicized win led to scammers using her name to rob people, with fake social media accounts asking for bank information to send a portion of her winnings as a donation. Despite attempts to claim the money anonymously, Davis was not allowed to do so. She is now advocating for the protection of future winners' identities.
