Georgia is one of 11 states that allows lottery winners who win more than $250,000 to remain anonymous.
Georgia Lottery says any prizes less than $600 can be claimed at any of its retailers; however, prizes over $600 must be claimed at the lottery headquarters or district offices or mailed for the payment.
Winners of prizes more than $600 must fill out a winner claim form and have a valid government-issued photo ID with a Social Security card.
