In March, Mizuho Bank announced that in an Internet-only lottery it sold on commission, there was a setting error in which the number of winning tickets for the ``first prize of 2 million yen'' was supposed to be 10, but it was incorrectly set to 200. Did.
The error in setting the number of winning tickets occurred in some of the Internet-only lottery tickets sold on behalf of Mizuho Bank, ``Quick One,'' which were sold from March 1st.
Specifically,
▽ ``1st prize 2 million yen'' has 10 tickets changed to 200
▽ ``2nd prize 100,000 yen'' has 200 tickets changed to 2000
▽ ``6th prize 200 yen'' has 400,000 tickets changed to 10 tickets by
mistake. was set.
This lottery system lets you know immediately if you have won the lottery when you purchase it online, and on the 4th, when a purchaser contacted us, we noticed a setting error, and the cause is currently under investigation.
Sales were suspended, but by then there had been 27 winning tickets for the first prize of 2 million yen, more than the original 10, and those who won the prize would be paid the prize as per the regulations. That's it.
In addition, for those who did not win, the purchase price will be refunded through the publisher, and that method is currently under consideration.
Mizuho Bank commented, ``We apologize for the inconvenience and inconvenience caused to our customers and will work to prevent it from happening again.''
