One lucky Aussie has scooped $50 million but may not know it yet.

A lucky Aussie from the Sunshine State scooped $50 million on Tuesday night but there’s a chance they don’t know it yet.

The new millionaire was the only division one winner in the Oz Lotto draw making them the biggest winner of any lottery game so far in 2024.

However when officials from The Lott tried to contact the Queenslander there was no answer.

The winning entry was purchased on The Lott website and is registered to an online account.

The winning numbers were 18, 28, 2, 4, 1, 47 and 37, while the supplementary numbers were 11, 24 and 27.

The Lott spokesman Matt Hart said repeated attempts to phone the winner on Tuesday night had failed.

“I was ready to confirm Oz Lotto’s newest division one winner straight after the results of tonight’s draw were known, but sadly whenever I called the number provided, it just rang out and went straight to message bank,” he said.

“If you see a number of missed calls on your phone, you could be the winner we’re trying to contact.

“You may not think it’s possible you’re the division one winner we’re searching for, but if you purchased an online entry into this week’s Oz Lotto draw that you haven’t checked yet, you’re in with a chance!

“We’re urging all Oz Lotto players to check their entries as soon as possible. If you discover you are holding the division one winning ticket contact the Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
