A Highett resident or visitor is certain to have a kick-start to the working week – if only they would check their TattsLotto entry and discover they are more than $1.6 million richer.

The mystery winner holds one of the 12 division one winning entries nationally in TattsLotto draw 3921, drawn Saturday 15 February 2019. Each entry takes home a division one prize of $1,666,666.67.

The ticket is unregistered, so Tatts officials have no way of contacting the winner with the life-changing news and have to wait for them to come forward to claim their prize.

The winning entry was purchased at Highett Lotto & Tobacco, 304 Highett Road, Highett.

Highett Lotto & Tobacco co owner Mohit Jain said he was thrilled to discover his outlet had sold a division one winning entry.

“When I found out our store had sold a winning entry I rushed in on Sunday morning to find out the details,” he explained.

“I had originally thought it may have been a syndicate win, but I was thrilled to discover one of our customers had won $1.6 million.

“We’ve had a lot of people coming in to check their tickets to see if it was them.

“We are so happy for the winner and we hope they come forward soon.”
