A Palm Beach local or visitor has started the week more than $400,000 richer after winning division one in the weekend’s Saturday Gold Lotto draw – they just don’t know it.
The mystery winner holds one of the ten division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 3877 on 15 September 2018. Each entry takes home a division one prize of $408,233.51.
Whilst the winning entry is registered to a Winners Circle card, the player’s contact details are not up to date, which means Golden Casket officials have no way of contacting the winner to break the life-changing news.
The win takes the Gold Coast region’s division one winning tally up to 13 this calendar year. This tally includes an unclaimed prize from draw 3867 drawn 11 August 2018 purchased in Helensvale worth $671,513.12.
The winning Saturday Gold Lotto entry was purchased at Palm Beach Newsagency, Shop 5, Pavilions On 5th, Palm Beach.
Golden Casket spokesperson Bronnie Spencer said the Gold Coast region’s latest division one winner could be walking around with a winning ticket in their pocket and not even know it.
“There are over 400,000 reasons why Gold Lotto players from the Palm Beach region should check their tickets today! Imagine how your plans for the week and your life may change once you discover you are now a division one winner!” she said.
“You may not think it’s possible that you could be the division one winner we’re searching for, but if you purchased an unregistered entry in the weekend’s Saturday Gold Lotto draw that you haven’t checked yet, you’re in with a chance!
“We’re urging all Gold Lotto players to check their entries as soon as possible and if you discover you are holding the division one winning ticket, to contact Golden Casket on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
Ms Spencer also reminded players of the importance of keeping their contact details up to date.
“It is really important that you keep your contact details up to date when registering with a Winners Circle Card so we can contact you directly with the good news in the case of a win!”
