Search for mystery $1m Lotto winner after ticket bought at Foodworks in Gundagai, NSW

A lucky NSW resident or visitor to the state has become an overnight millionaire, but they may not even know it yet.

Australia’s latest millionaire may not even know about their massive windfall.

Someone who bought a ticket to the Monday and Wednesday Lotto draw in Gundagai in the NSW Riverina has scored the only division one winning entry from Monday night’s draw and won $1m.

They bought the ticket at the Gundagai Foodworks and LPO, a two-hour drive west of Canberra.

However, the entry was unregistered, which means Lotto officials have no way of contacting the winner to share the exciting news.

The winner entered into draw 4374 and the onus is now on them to step up and claim their prize.

Winning numbers in the Monday and Wednesday Lotto draw 4374 were 2, 4, 16, 27, 34 and 39, and the supplementary numbers were 11 and 18.

Gundagai Foodworks and LPO supervisor Katie Morris said her team was ecstatic to have sold a division one winning entry and couldn’t wait to unite their customer with their prize.

“This is such exciting news for a small country town like Gundagai,” she said.

“We’re definitely in awe this morning after realising that our outlet had sold an entry worth $1m.

“The mystery winner could be anyone walking around the town, or it could’ve been a visitor passing by.

“We sure do hope they check their ticket soon and come forward to claim their prize.

“Congratulations to the mystery winner.

“We can’t wait to hear about the moment you checked your ticket and realised you’re $1m richer.”

The Lott spokesman Anna Hobdell said The Lott was in the business of paying prizes and looked forward to uniting the winner with their Monday and Wednesday Lotto loot.

“It’s likely our latest winner is going about their day as normal with no idea they’ve won division one,” she said.

“We’re urging all players who purchased a Monday and Wednesday Lotto ticket from Gundagai Foodworks and LPO to check their tickets today.

“Make sure you check your ticket, which could be in your wallet, handbag, fridge door or car glovebox, because the winner could be you and you could be planning what to do with your prize too.”
