One very lucky Aussie is waking up a whopping $50 million richer this morning after taking out last night’s Oz Lotto jackpot all to themselves.
The mystery winner, believed to be from Victoria, held the only division one winning entry across the whole country.
However, as the entry was unregistered, Lottery officials have to wait for the mystery ticketholder to discover their life-changing news and come forward.
“The winning entry was sold at a Tatts outlet in the City of Casey, in Melbourne’s southeast,” The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said.
“Imagine going to bed not knowing you’ve just won $50 million in Oz Lotto! That’s the reality for one mystery Victorian after scoring division one in last night’s Oz Lotto draw,” she said.
“Not only is this mystery Victorian Oz Lotto’s biggest winner for 2022, but they’re also the year’s fourth biggest winner across all lottery games.
“We’re encouraging everyone to check their entries because they might be the newly-minted multi-millionaire we’re searching for!”
In addition to the sole division one win, there were a total of 778,643 prizes worth more than $18 million won in divisions two to seven in last night’s Oz Lotto draw.
Among those winners were 14 division two winners who each took home a cool $47,858.55.
The winning numbers were 37, 42, 47, 39, 5, 17 and 20, while the supplementary numbers were 29, 22 and 38.
