An Adelaide resident or visitor scored a life-changing $3 million in last night’s Oz Lotto draw but may be completely unaware of their newly minted millionaire status.

The mystery ticketholder held the only division one winning entry nationally in Oz Lotto draw 1581, drawn Tuesday 4 June 2024.

The winning entry was not registered to a player card or online account, meaning officials from The Lott have no way of notifying the winner of their lottery loot and must wait for them to check their ticket and come forward.

This win marks the third South Australian lottery triumph in less than two weeks. It follows an Adelaide man winning the entire $150 million Powerball jackpot, becoming Australia’s biggest individual lottery winner ever, and a Moonta man who scored $20,000 a month for the next 20 years in Set for Life.

The winning ticket was purchased at Taperoo Deli, 351 Victoria Road, Taperoo.

The Lott spokesperson Khat McIntyre said she hoped to unite South Australia’s latest division one winner with their life-changing win soon.

“Our mystery winner is likely oblivious to the fact they’ve won more than $3 million in last night’s Oz Lotto draw, “ she said.

“We’re encouraging anyone who purchased an Oz Lotto Lotto ticket from Taperoo Deli to check their tickets as soon as possible!

“Can you imagine how extraordinary it would be to discover you’ve become a multi-millionaire overnight? Your plans for the rest of the year and into the future would change quickly.

“If you discover that you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”

The winning numbers in Oz Lotto draw 1581 on Tuesday 4 June 2024 were 1, 36, 16, 13, 33, 15 & 28, while the supplementary numbers were 45, 21 and 26.

Across Australia, there was one division one winning entry in Oz Lotto draw 1581 – one in South Australia.

The Lott’s division one winning tally has now reached 383 so far in FY24, including 28 won by SA Lotteries customers.

In 2023, 16 Oz Lotto division one winning across Australia collectively won more than $330.8 million.

During this time, Oz Lotto offered a $90 million jackpot – the second biggest in the game’s 30-year history – which was shared by three New South Wales winners.

Of the 16 Oz Lotto division one winning entries in 2023, six landed in New South Wales, three in Victoria, two each in Queensland, Tasmania and Western Australia and one South Australia.
