Could be they found out they would get a W9 (or whatever form) and would owe taxes on it as income.
Doesn't matter, it's now your good fortune, enjoy it!

When Ohio ran the same scratch off they also encluded enough cash to cover the taxes. I bought a ticket twice a week untill it ended. I did not win a bike but I won enough that I only spent $20 out of pocket. Now if I can get lucky and hit the power ball.
