The bank released a note in which it clarifies that the only authorized channels for the sale of Caixa Lotteries are the more than 13,000 Lottery Lottery stores, the Caixa Lotteries Portal, the Caixa Lotteries App, available free of charge to IOS and Android users, and Internet Banking for customers.
Caixa says that bets on unofficial sites do not offer any guarantee that the player will receive any prize on unauthorized sites and that these sites charge surcharges for unauthorized sites, so that these amounts are not reverted to bets.
Bolão Caixa is only sold, safely and with the delivery of the original quota receipt, at lotteries, and is not available on electronic channels.
Caixa says that it has not authorized, does not recognize, has no link and is not responsible for any other site, application or channel for the sale of lotteries or bets, whether physical or on the internet.
The bank also says that it does not authorize the use of its brand or any of the registered brands of its products or services in these channels.
Caixa warns about the purchase of Federal Lottery tickets through these unauthorized channels, as:
• there is no guarantee that the bets will be placed and registered, by the intermediary, with the Federal Lotteries, so that betting on one of the unofficial channels does not guarantee that the player actually competes in the draw;
• there is no guarantee that the bettor will receive a possible prize, as he will not be in possession of the original wager receipt, issued by the Lotteries and official digital channels of the bank, and which is the only legal document that enables him to receive a prize;
• there is a surcharge by unauthorized websites, so that these amounts are not reverted to bets;
• there is no guarantee that the jackpots offered by unauthorized sites will be registered with the Federal Lotteries in their entirety or in accordance with official rules, such as minimum and maximum number of quotas, quota value, modality, etc., which may interfere with the value of possible individual award.
Caixa advises players to place their bets on Federal Lotteries, such as Mega da Virada, Mega-Sena, Lotofácil, Quina, Lotomania and others, exclusively through one of the bank's official channels, with all security, transparency, convenience and guarantee participation in drawings and receipt of any prizes, also avoiding the unnecessary expenditure of resources with service fees and other unforeseen charges.
