An illegal immigrant allegedly swindled out of his $3 million lottery jackpot win will finally collect his prize, the Daily Mail reports.

The man won the jackpot after purchasing a lottery scratch card at N&K Quick Pick in Spring Valley, N.Y., on Feb. 3.

Three of the store's workers had allegedly tricked the man by telling him he'd be deported if he tried to collect his winnings.

"When he presented the ticket, they scared the hell out of him," Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe told the Daily Mail.

Atif Ali, 22, Riaz Khan, 45, and Mubeen Ashraf, 22, tried to convince the man that he should name them all as co-purchasers, according to prosecutors. The three then allegedly claimed the money and cut the man out of the deal, the website reports.

Zugibe told the website that the man is entitled to cash in on the prize even though he is an undocumented immigrant.

There have been many cases of illegal aliens winning large sums of money either gambling at casinos or in lotteries, only to be disqualified by being an illegal alien.

If Mexican illegal aliens have one thing in common - THEY LOVE TO GAMBLE.

Hopefully, this will make national news. The bigger the better.

I have several reasons for saying this. The IRS is the first one. Will the IRS accept a gambling tax from an ILLEGAL ALIEN?

It would be great to see how close to the USSC in the appeals process this would go.

No mention of this lucky illegal invader being deported after cashing in on his windfall. Probably because he won't be.

They win the jack pot every time they illegally cross the border.......
