A Florida couple allegedly tried to pull a fast one on lottery officials when they taped together a scratch-off ticket and passed it off as a $1 million winner. Spoiler alert: It didn’t work.

According to an affidavit, 36-year-old Kira Lee Enders on March 1 went to the Florida Lottery’s Pensacola office and claimed she won a $1 million prize from the 500X The Cash scratch off ticket.

“The ticket had obvious alterations and is crudely pieced together from two separate actual scratch-off tickets,” Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies wrote in the affidavit.
