A Westbury Walmart cashier is accused of scamming two women by telling them they won the lottery.
Police say Jacques Hirsch told the women from Florida and South Carolina they'd hit the jackpot and had to pay "fees" to get their prize.
According to police, he then told them to wire money to the Westbury Walmart on Old Country Road. Police say one woman wired $1,000 and the other $1,800.
Hirsch is being arraigned on grand larceny charges.
Police say a second suspect is still on the loose.
