What happens if I initiate a chargeback?
Initiating a chargeback on a valid Silver State Lottery transaction is treated as a potential act of fraud. All payments made on our platform are final, and all users agree to this policy upon completing the ticket purchase.
If you file a chargeback or attempt to reverse a transaction through your financial institution:
Your actions will trigger the following response:
Permanent Account Ban
Your account will be immediately deactivated, and all future access to the Silver State Lottery platform will be revoked.
Transaction and Account Flagging
Your chargeback will be flagged and logged in our fraud detection database. Associated user data—including IP addresses, timestamps, geolocation records, and device fingerprints—will be retained as admissible digital evidence.
Escalation to Legal Team and Law Enforcement
Your information will be forwarded to our internal legal counsel and, where applicable, submitted to local, state, or federal law enforcement authorities for investigation and prosecution.
Pursuit of Civil and Criminal Action
We reserve the right to aggressively pursue legal remedies, which may include:
Civil Litigation for recovery of funds, damages, attorney fees, and court costs
Criminal Prosecution under applicable statutes, including:
NRS 205.0832 – Fraud by False Pretenses
NRS Chapters 462 & 465 – Lottery/Gaming Offenses
18 U.S.C. § 1343 – Federal Wire Fraud
18 U.S.C. § 1341 – Federal Mail Fraud (if applicable)
Reporting to Financial Watchlists and Merchant Networks
Your information may be submitted to merchant blacklists, fraud prevention networks, and credit risk monitoring systems used by financial institutions and digital service providers.
Can I Appeal a Fraud Decision or Account Ban?
No. All fraud-related decisions are final and non-negotiable. Silver State Lottery maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy regarding chargebacks, identity misrepresentation, and geolocation manipulation.
Fraud determinations are based on objective, system-verified evidence, including:
Device and browser fingerprinting
IP and location tracking
Time-stamped session logs
Payment verification and KYC data
Audit trails of user behavior
Once flagged, the decision is non-reversible, and no appeals, reinstatements, or secondary reviews will be considered.
This policy is in place to protect:
The legal status of our charitable gaming license
The integrity of the platform
Honest players and community beneficiaries
In Summary:
✔ All chargebacks are treated as fraud
✔ Legal and criminal penalties will be pursued
✔ Bans are permanent and non-appealable
✔ System data is legally admissible and final
Silver State Lottery upholds the highest standards of legal compliance and operational transparency. These protections ensure that the platform remains fair, secure, and aligned with its mission to serve the public good.
