I play scratch it tickets for the lottery in my state. I've sometimes wondered if it would be easy to modify these tickets, so losers became winners. Have you heard of anyone doing that effectively?

Yes, modifying scratch-it tickets to make losers winners is known as fraud, and it's actually quite common. Those looking to cheat the system will scratch off a winning combination, or even just enough information to guess the winning numbers, then photocopy the ticket before entering it into the lottery drawing. Then, they'll try to collect their fake winnings when the time comes.  Thankfully, these attempts are usually thwarted by lottery officials. To avoid fraud, it's important to be mindful of what information you share online and beware of any offers that seem too good to be true.
