The winning streak continues in Townsville with a third division one win landing in the region in ten days, and once again, the winner has no idea they’ve woken up a millionaire.
The mystery North Queensland player held one of the three division one winning entries nationally in Monday and Wednesday Gold Lotto draw 4049, drawn Wednesday 3 February 2021. They take home a division one prize of $1 million.
The ticket is unregistered, so officials from The Lott have no way of contacting the winner and have to wait for them to come forward to claim their prize.
The Monday & Wednesday Gold Lotto win comes after a local couple scored a division one prize in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 4123 and just a week ago a Townsville man took home $1 million in Monday & Wednesday Gold Lotto draw 4047.
Last night’s division one winning entry was purchased at The Strand Newsagency, Shop 7, North Ward Shopping Centre, 39 Eyre Street, North Ward.
The Lott spokesperson Lauren Cooney said anyone who purchased an entry into last night’s draw at The Strand Newsagency should check their tickets today.
“2021 is certainly off to a winning start for Townsville, with another division one win landing in the area,” she said.
“The latest winner could quite possibly be going about their day as normal, with no idea they’re a millionaire.
“In just the last ten days we’ve spoken to a Townsville couple and a local man who are both happily planning what to do with their division one prizes and this latest winner could be joining them if only they’d check their tickets.
“If you do realise you’re holding the winning entry, please call us on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
