When a woman entered an unnamed business in Feasterville to try her hand at some lottery machines, she cashed in a $1 ticket and left the store on Feb. 20, Lower Southampton police said.
She then went back into the store a short time later, but this time claimed she won $400 and provided the ticket to an "inexperienced employee," police said.
After the woman left with her winnings, it was discovered that she provided a counterfeit ticket, police said.
Police are encouraging anyone with information regarding the identity of the woman to call the Lower Southampton Township Police Department at (215)-357-1235 or submit a tip on the CRIMEWATCH website.
