If he won the lottery he would get that.

I am sure though they will have something in very small print that says something different to that.
Something that goes on the lines of, if the company feels it has been misled as to applicants and contestants then they reserve some right to not honour payments.

Yeah, they must do otherwise they wouldn't be discussing it. Still though, I think he'd have a pretty good chance legally of getting it if they decided not to give it to him and he challenged it.
